  Description

  My partner and I are organic farming mainly from Monday-Thursday, and want to be self sustaining as much as possible We were full time musicians before covid and have a recording studio. We also do tshirt printing, band merch, we are artists, and travellers that have bought a big old house and 2,000 sqm of land in central Germany. We always have cool building projects happening at home that are in progress. We really need help in the garden all the time too.
  
  Especially when our festival Sinner Rock Festival, is on in September. It's when all the veggies are coming out. At that time we need help in the garden, in the house, etc..
  
  As a language and cultural exchange we like to help people do what they want to do for fun and get some local knowledge. We have a couple of bikes you can use, great hiking, a nice pool in the area, and there is always small traditional events on. We try to get our work away people to stay overnight with different friends and neighbors to see some other sides of lifestyles. Older people, younger people, with kids, without, and hopefully with your kind of people. We work with you to get the most out of your stay.
  
  I'm a language fanatic and we are happy to teach you English, German, and can help work on Danish, and Spanish if you want to. I am also a trained chef that has worked all over the world as a chef in different cuisines including vegan, veggie, holistic, Mexican, Asian, Austrian, Aussie and of course American food too.

We have a lot going on all the time, and we let people choose what they like to do, and we work together on what needs to be done.
