Beschreibung
Jurgen, two border collies: Waya & Hakan, two cats: Denali & Balobi, as well as a coop full of free range chicken.
We live totally off-grid at our eco-friendly Mountain Retreat , a down to earth guest farm.
It's all about digital detox eco-tourism, hiking trails, rock climbing, mountain trekking, canyoning and then some adventure activities.
We've got an organic/permaculture garden to feed us as far as possible.
Help is needed, simply to maintaining this dream... and then some awesome conversations, healthy meals and the great outdoors in you free time.

Where possible we all work together in a team, however volunteers need to be able to work on their own and be comfortable with the remoteness of the farm, limited WiFi yet no mobile phone connection. Get ready for a Digital Detox (if you choose)!
We are looking for outdoorsy, hands-on volunteers (bring your hiking boots!). Practical experience is a bonus!
