  Aide

  We live here off grid and are working on a fully self-sustainable life, in order for this to work out we need a kick start of help for a few projects.
  We have already a garden set up but room for expansion, we are wanting to start working on an exciting aquaponic project for which we definitely require help, we also would love to have help in finishing some aspects of our self built house, as well as general helpful tasks; cleaning and fire wood collecting.

  Hébergement

  We have here a T3 campervan that has been turned into a beautiful cosy bedroom space, we have a lovely sized caravan also guest ready and we have plenty of space for tents if that's more your thing! As we are off grid and rely on solar power to power our house, we have not so much electricity available in the evening times, this also means that our accommodation is without power so a torch would be necessary, but of course we have enough energy to charge phones and other personal electronic items in the day time.
  Regarding food we are a family of meat eaters but we eat also very often vegetarian, 3 meals a day is a given, as well as snacks whenever required. We have a very hungry growing boy so we are often eating meals with lots of veggies and always some form of carbohydrate, I'm not by any means a 5 star chef however I can produce tasty wholesome foods.. Excellent fuel for a good days work! :)
