  Description

  Hello
  As a young person who has also used workaway to see the world I’ve met so many lovely people on the way and I think it is my time to give back now. I want to offer you an insight into my culture and the daily life in a small German village at the foot of the Black Forest. I am a woman in her mid 20s working in health care seeking help to renovate my first own home. Furthermore I also look forward to learn more about other cultures, languages and make new friends all around the globe.
  
  I would love to share my stories ans hear all about you.
  
  The love for nature, gardening and renovation would be a shared passion.
  
  Kindly, Isabelle

  What else ...

  Our home is located in a cosy little town named Kandern at the border of the Black Forest. Here you can go and have great hikes, go skiing, try the amazing wines of the region and experince life in a classic German community. Having a car is ideal to really enjoy the area and go for weekend adventures. We are located very close to the border of France and Switzerland so there will be a lot for you to experience, see and do.
