I felt welcome there! the farm and the farm were amazing hosts, also the place is amazing and very comfortable. The animals are so cute, even the cats were very friendly. You will have free time during the day besides the days off, and they are also very flexible if you need something. I really recommend the experience and I am also grateful for the opportunity :)

The program is ideal for those who are interested in horses and horse culture in Germany. the farm and the farm have more than 20 years of experience in horse keeping. You can learn almost everything about horses as long as you want to. Usually the tasks do not take long to finish so you will have plenty of free time to yourself. It is a one-volunteer program, but you will have extra company of two lovely dogs and cats and you can also meet the local guests. I thank the farm for her delicious cooking. I thank the farm and the farm for hosting me and I give five stars to their kindness and generosity.
