The Experience

We are an international family of 4. Dad German. Mum Danish. We have been expats for over a decade and have now returned to my home country Denmark but we miss the international interaction and inspiration. Our children, twins born 2011 are forgetting their English and we would love to welcome an international spirit into our home and hearts that could speak English with us and help us out with cleaning, cooking etc.

I had a lovely first volunteering experience in Denmark with the home. The family were really kind and welcoming throughout my stay, including me in any family activity. Every morning Pernille communicated any tasks she needed me to do. None of the daily tasks were very difficult or above my skill set. And I still had time to myself. They have a beautiful family home just outside the city with plenty of nature to enjoy. The area was not difficult to get to and they kindly provided me with a bike for shorter distances. Overall, I had a wonderful summer with them! Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful stay with Pernille and her family! They are incredibly kind, the kids are polite, and their dog is adorable. Pernille is an excellent, organized host who communicates the workload early each morning by message so you can plan your day. I was especially grateful for her flexibility when I had to change my work days last-minute due to travel. The family loves cultural exchange and trying new things—they enjoyed my cooking and we had great chats about our different habits. The house is spacious, clean, and very cozy. Highly recommended for a warm stay in Denmark!

Lisa is such an incredible person and we enjoyed having her here. She might come back another time. She is an amazing cook and good at doing house chores. She can make a bed perfectly like at a hotel. And she did a perfect job at making food that accomodate all our different diet needs. We enjoyed hearing more about her background and playing basketball with several times. All the best with your future in hospitality Lisa and thank you for everything!.

It was a super nice experience. The family was really kind and the tasks were mostly cleaning and cooking. They are not picky eaters and also recommended recipes, so I didn't have to guess. The area is beautiful, however quite remote, but they did provide a bike and there's a bus coming every hour as well. They were always happy to give advice on free time possibilites (also there were some relly interesting books as well) and included me in the family basketball matches and table tennis, which were quite fun:)

Kini is super nice and kind. She is a much better cook than she thinks herself. She is a booklover and read almost all the English books we had so that was so inspiring. She is very devoted to her faith and that was also so inspiring because these days it is so rare. We wish her all the best.

It was my first volunteering experience abroad, and I couldn't have chosen a better family than the home. Their home is beautiful, and the place where they live is peaceful, simple, and lovely. From day one, they made me feel at home. The tasks were varied but never too demanding, leaving time to relax, read, or explore. They involved me in daily life, taught me a lot about Denmark, and helped me improve my English. Pernille is caring, kind, and an inspiring yoga teacher. I'm truly grateful and highly recommend this experience.

Marta is a wonderful girl. She is really into baking so if you like cakes, she is your girl. Ask her to make a lava cake. Marta wants to be a teacher and I am sure that the kids will adore her. She is so sweet and positive. Her English is not the best but that is why she is traveling and it was no problem at all. We wish Marta all the best and hope to see her again.

I had a lovely time staying with Pernille and Sven. They were very welcoming and flexible. Their home is beautiful but in a very small town with not much to do so it's perfect for when you need a break from the travelling life for a bit

Charlie is a nice girl. We enjoyed getting to know her. She has travelled SO much and will travel so much more so fun to hear about her adventures. She is a really good cook and can whip up the most amazing dishes out of nothing. Thank you Charlie for everything.
