Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
Our house is open to the world and we have dozens of travelers visiting all months of the year from all over the globe who share their stories, food, ideas, information and opinions.
We are very involved in our local community and there is a lot of interaction with our neighbors and other local arts and culture organizations.
We live in a cool place, in a wonderful country, surrounded by great neighbors that enjoy meeting and interacting with our guests. Even beyond our own events, there are usually lots of other cultural activities and events going on in the area so if authentic cross-cultural exchange is your thing, feel free to dive in and drink deep!Arbeit
As this is a large old house and property we are always working on various maintenance and improvement projects.
For spring through fall 2025 we will be working on projects that include:
- refinishing wooden chairs & tables
- creating a decorative artistic design for an 16m x 2m concrete wall
- creating podcasts and video productions featuring aspects of our community
- adding local hiking trails to our Komoot profile
- planting fruit and hardwood trees around the property
- repairing garden fencing and posts
- repairing an old grape arbor
We will also be working on social media to update and improve web, FB and other media platforms.
In the spring we typically prep the gardens, plant and get ready for summer projects.
From June to September we are busy putting on cultural events and hosting various groups who use the property for education, art and environmental seminars.
In the fall we will be harvesting, canning fruits and vegetables, as well as harvesting and storing firewood for the winter.
In winter we focus on indoor repair and improvement projects which include refinishing and repairing furniture, light interior painting, improving guest rooms, re-organizing storage areas, maintaining household systems, fixing broken equipment and general DIY preparations for spring.Sprachen
