Description
We are a family of 4. My husband and me 38 and our daughter Flori 9 and the little one Fabian 3.
We live in the east of Germany closed to Leipzig in a small village. As we live in big house with a big garden and some pets, there is always a lot to do and we could need some extra pair of hands.Types of help and learning opportunities

We have been workawayers ourselves for three month last year and we loved it so much that we want to share that great experience by beeing a host for people from all over the world.
We are a very open minded family and want to share our family life with you. You can learn about carpentry and any building stuff from stefan, I can teach some German, and gardening and sustainable living, some diy, german cooking and baking and of course german culture.

Help
We bought our house just two years ago and we are still in the renovating process. My husband is a carpenter and is doing most of the work by himself. Our garden is big and still a bit wild and could use some more care. And as I work in 24h shifts, the kids are happy about any entertainer and friend. So if you are interested in taking part in german family life and in addition to that, have some gardening skills, interests in pets or handycrafts , you are more than welcome. We could use any kind of help, and we will sure find something that will work for all of us and something that we are all comfortable with. We are expecting 4 hours help 5 days a week in exchange for food and accomondation.
