    Description

    Hi, i m Daniel. Right now (07.09.23)
    The tiny witch house needs to be finished. And there is a bit of gardenwork.

    I got quite a lot of volunteer and farming experiences. Especially in Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia.

    Now i got my own project and i want to offer 2 places to stay.
    I m renovating an old house with a big barn. The garden is quit big, too.
    Since i am an architect i could teach some skills. I like to build with clay and straw.
    In the barn i like to do some art. Paintings and wood work. I also would like to collect some information about the castles around here. The castles here are quite special. I heard that Mr. Tolkien (author of Lord of the Rings) got inspired by that.
    It s also nice to go on a kanu tour not far from here at a smaller river.
    I also should tell you that i m about 90 % vegetarian. I would have a problem with cheap meat from the discounter supermarket!
    To stay here with a campervan is no problem.

    build with natural materials like wood, earth/clay and straw
    If you would like to help a bit, you can also take a walk to some castles at the river Rhein. The house is in a small village that is close to the river Rhein. There are 2 castles near by. There are smaller rivers where you can go on a Kanu. You can check in the Internet: Loreley, romantic Rhein, ... I think its quite nice.
