Description
Hi everybody. My name is Vicki. I live with my husband Dirk on a farm one and a half hour north from berlin. He´s a musican, so sometimes it can be loud in the house. We have some farm animals: chickens, cows and our two lovley dogs. My dream is to be 100% independent from food markets. I´m working on it since 2017 and its still a long way. If you like this project and like to support me, we would love to host you!
We enjoy the silence and the solitude, please don´t aspect making party to "midnight" everyday, (we´re getting old). But sometimes we love campfires and with a chilled drink in a hand and a guitar on the other even our nights can get longer;)
Every now and then we get visits from guests who take paid holidays here,from our friends, family or neighbors. Openness and tolerance for every kind of people with different opinions, lifestyles and life stories is important to us. You should also have a positive view on life. We know that not everything is going well in our world, but I've gotten tired of discussing it for hours. Less conversation, more good actions. Let's just do things better!
Update!
At the beginning of 2021 I was traveling be myself to europe. Unfortunately, I had a big accident on the way. I need help with the garden this year. Any kind of support is helpful... building, take care of the animals, walk the dogs, cooking, cleaning the stable....

I need help in my garden. This is my first garden year and i didnt expect so much work :o The garden is 100qm large. I´m learning everything by doing. Not everything is working but its such a joy to see every fruit that grows. You can help by feeding and cleaning the animals, walk the dogs in a beautiful landscape. And helping me to improve my english! Sometimes we build or maintain things. I want to build a tipi. Things like that.
