The Experience

We are Marsha (NL/ she/ them) and Yoko (DE/ they/ them) and we live with our 6 kids (6-19), 4 cats, a puppy and a horse in Ørsta. We are also fosterhome for cats so from time to time we have a few extra cats. We primarily need help with cleaning but occasionally there can be other tasks as well. Most of the people staying here also like to spend some time with the children but thats voluntary. We work according to an easy list with tasks.

It was a short but truly amazing experience, I've been welcomed in with the warmth of the family! There was always something to do and the kids where always open to play a game or go for a walk!

This was my first experience as a worldpacker and it was absolutely amazing! Marsha and Yoko are very nice and kind and I had so much fun with them. They were always there for me when I needed them and they were very supportive. They made my time here very special. Their kids are super fun and I really enjoyed my time with them, they always wanted to play some games and it was very nice. The tasks weren't any hard and didn't take much time which was perfect because I could spend a lot of time in the stunning nature. I really had the best time here and I hope I'll come back someday.
