The Experience

One of our longterm-volunteer will leave soon, so we are a looking for someone else to help us all around the farm! It would be great if you have some handy bulding skills, since we plan to build outside skirts for oigs, a new stable for the chicken etc.... Also, it's also great if you can work independently, since we are often caught up with other work... :-) Daily work will be feeding animals, gardening, cleaning etc.

I spent amazing time in Austrian Alps, thanks so much to Anna and Leo. I learned many things by way of doing from farming to construction, to woods cutting etc. I met new friends from different countries. Gmunden is good place for spending free times. I wish that I wanna come again Austria in one day.

This was my first experience with Worldpackers, and it was perfect. Anna and Leo are so nice and welcoming, they also have the nicest and smartest kids I know (Jakob will probably give you a tour of the tractors and machinery as soon as you're there 🤣), the rooms are very comfortable, the view of the house is absolutely magical. The work I did was mostly planting seeds, watering the plants, collecting hay, feeding the animals, (the work was always what I could handle myself) In my free time, I rode around the area on their bikes or hiked. There is nothing I can complain about this experience.

I stayed 3 weeks in Purndorf and I regret not staying for longer. Leo and Anna made me feel right at home as soon as I met them. Their 2 kids Jakob and Johannes are full of joy and love to run around the farm. The room was perfect and had its own smaller bathroom attached. The food was some of the best I've ever experienced. Fresh veggies and meat right from either their farm or the surrounding area. The work could be tiring but was never more then I could handle. It's a farm so be prepared to be dirty. I had some great conversations and shared laughs. Felt like a home away from home.

The volunteer experience in Anna and Leo's place is the best❤️ It is a beautiful and peaceful place, and there's a really pretty mountain nearby! U can help with feeding animals, painting, and some simple tasks☺️ I gained a lot of skills here😍 They have two lovely kids. they are cute and considerate! And they are not scared of new people, I always play with them and melt when they called me “Emily, Emily ” The accommodation is great! A big big cozy bed and ur own toilet. And Anna always make delicious jam, yogurt and traditional food! I learned the culture, food and even dance🤣
