The farm made me feel so welcome from day one and truly made Germany feel like home! We shared nice conversations, explored nearby towns together, and saying goodbye at the train station was genuinely emotional. Her daughter was also super sweet and welcoming (and they have great cats!). The work was very fair and manageable, mostly helping in the garden and picking currants. The town is beautiful with great hiking! If you're looking for genuine connections, kindness, and a wonderful host, I highly recommend staying with the farm. Thank you for everything 💛 I'll always cherish these memories!

During my stay here, I was immediately welcomed into the house and I felt very relaxed. the farm and her daughter made my stay very enjoyable. The tasks that I had to carry out included de-weeding the garden, picking out herbs, painting the walls, cleaning the coop, and some general cleaning. I learned a lot about plants and herbs and im glad the farm passed her knowledge onto me ☺️Would recommend if you like the countryside and hiking as the area is perfect for hikes.

The farm is a wonderful woman and it was a pleasure to spend time with her. I felt at home, her animals are so friendly and her land is beautiful. I enjoyed working in the garden and around the pond on different projects. the farm is an intelligent woman with a lot of knowledge on plants and herbs and how to use them as medicine. I feel very inspired to incorporate my new knowledge of herbal medicine into my own life. Thank you for providing me with such a blissful experience! I would recommend this to people who enjoy learning about plants and immersing in the small village lifestyle and culture

My stay at the farm's was a truly memorable experience. Besides from being a overall wonderful person, the farm consistently went above and beyond to ensure we could explore and experience as much as possible during our time there. Thanks to her efforts, we visited many beautiful and fascinating places and cities in the surrounding area. In addition to the travel experiences, the work itself was incredibly rewarding. We learned a great deal about plants and gained valuable insights into living a more sustainable lifestyle.

My experience with the farm was fantastic! It was my first time with Worldpackers and I couldn't be more grateful. I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the calmness of a beautiful village, its nature and to meet wonderful people of the community. I discovered and learnt so many things and I can't wait to visit them again; I found a family in Upper Franconia! the farm respected working hours and she was flexible with them, making sure I was always comfortable. She was was very nice and took me every time at the train station, allowing me to visit nearby cities. We also took trips togheter:)

I was met with incredible kindness from the moment the farm picked me up from the train station to when she dropped me off. I truly felt like a part of the family here. the farm was understanding & accommodating to the hours & the work we'd do. I got to immerse myself in the local culture, learn new music (eg. the folk instruments hackbrett), gain animal care & landscaping skills, & have endless talks with the family about our cultural similarities & differences. I'm already looking forward to coming back. What an awesome & transformative experience. Thank you so much for everything!

Carola was an amazing host and I am very lucky to have met her. Not only was every aspect of the agreement respected but she went above and beyond to make my experience special. At the end of my visit, I felt more like family rather than a volunteer.

I spent one week here with my friend. This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I had a really good time. The moment the farm picked us up from the train station, we felt like part of the family. We spent 4 hours or less daily working in the garden, the rest of the time the farm and her daughter showed us beautiful places in the neighborhood, we played with their lovely animals (like Pumba, the wild boar) and made salt with herbs and ointment for muscle pain together. the farm knows so much about herbs and animals in the nature and is ready to teach you everything. I was sad to leave.

I spent a wonderful week at Carolas place with one of my friends. Our tasks were mainly to move some wood and stones under the garage and to take care of the animals. Her garden is like a fairytale and playing with her boar felt also like being in a tale. the farm is a selfless, kind person, who truly cares about nature and the wellbeing of animals. She even took us on some adventures and gave us handmade gifts.
