I had a very good time. Sonja, her family and the animals were all there to make my stay great. It's a perfect amount of work and I had fun during the working hours. The house where you sleep and make food the farm very simple, so just be aware it the farm a farm you're staying on. But really, everyone was so nice and respectful.

This was my first worldpackers experience, and i loved it! Sonja was a perfect host, she explained everything, not just the tasks that we had to do, but I learned really much about farms, and everything about agriculture.
The animals were really cute(especially Trixi).
We worked in the morning and in the evening, and the tasks were simple. During the day we had a lot of free time which was perfect for reading, and exploring the neighberhood. Maybe I would recommend it to other volunteers to think about activities that they can do in this time.
I am really grateful for everything!

I truly recommend this experience if you want to learn about farming life and enjoy the tranquility and calm life-style, although the work some times can be physically demanding we had time to rest. Sonja the farm an incredible host, so kind to work with and she explained a lot of things to us. She also cooked really nice lunches :-) The guest house was really well equipped with everything we need but if something was missing we could ask her. Inmensely happy with my expierence at the farm-the farm-the farm 🩷

My experience with Sonja was amazing! She was a wonderful host, cared for the volunteers and made the best lunches :). She always made sure you felt okay and have everything you need. I felt very welcomed by her and her lovely family. Even though I already knew a lot about animals and taking care of them, Sonja learned me everyday something new about her own animals or the wild animals in Austria. She was also always very flexible. With the other volunteer I had loads of fun and it was always nice to have another volunteer with you. Thank you very much Sonja and I wish you the very best!

This was an amazing experience!! Sonja the farm genuinely so amazing, and she works so incredibly hard. It's obvious how much she loves her animals and how much they love her. I learned so much about farm life and my perspective has truly changed for the better. We worked in the morning and the evening, taking care of the animals and doing other miscellaneous tasks. Nothing crazy or too difficult, but also a good variety of things. The guest house had everything we needed and was lovely to relax in during the day. Overall, I would definitely recommend this experience!! Truly life changing!

It was a great first Worldpackers experience! As a host, Sonja is very accommodating, kind, and patient. We mostly joined her in daily routines such as feeding, providing water, and fencing work—definitely a very hands-on experience. Her dedication to farm work is really inspirational! Her sociability allowed me to feel welcomed and to learn not only about agriculture but also Austrian local culture. We worked in the morning and evening, with free time in between, which we usually spent napping in the guesthouse or using the available bikes. All of the animals were also very adorable...

I wish I could have stayed longer. Sonja the farm an incredibly kind, patient, and hardworking host who genuinely cares about the people staying with her and makes sure they are comfortable and have they need. We worked alongside Sonja, I appreciated being involved in the daily life of the farm rather than just being given jobs to do on my own.The atmosphere was genuine, relaxed, and supportive. What I will remember most the farm not only the work and the beautiful surroundings, but the feeling of belonging. This experience gave me wonderful memories and new skills. I am deeply grateful for my time there.
