  Beschreibung

  We are a small friend farmstead across the water from Seattle: Joel (39), Kira (40), Liv (30), Dorothy and Roscoe the cats, chickens, ducks, and Bessie the cow-dog.
  
  Us:
  We are young-ish, energetic, musical, silly, group of people in the most beautiful spot in the USA. We have ~5 acres of land that we are growing into a homestead just outside of Seattle.
  
  The place:
  We are 12 (16km) miles from the city of Seattle by boat, a few miles from Port Orchard and Gig Harbor, where there are all the standard amenities you would want from a small city. Plenty of restaurants, bars, shops, etc. There are plenty of outdoors things to do around here, including kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and all sorts of fun things very close to the house.
  
  The help:
  We are looking for helpers to do tasks in the garden and new orchard, help with planting, weeding, pruning, mowing, harvesting, home maintenance, building, making art, and all sorts of other things to be done. Much of it will require at least some manual labor, but we are definitely not expecting everyone to perform long, hard hours of heavy lifting. In fact, we are very interested in having travelers that are just as interested in sharing culture, language, cooking, music, and anything else. We like to tailor the stay based on all sorts of different factors. Feel free to ask!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We are an extroverted, very active group of people that hangs out and relaxes together many nights. We love to show people around, and there are plenty of things to do within 15 minutes from the house. We are a very well travelled group with a diverse background and we love to share what we have to offer.

  Arbeit

  We're looking for help with cooking, gardening, general upkeep, dog sitting, arts and crafts, music playing, general learning experiences, language practice and most importantly- INTERACTING WITH YOU.
  
  We prefer only travelers who wish to share their experience and bring something fun and different into our fun and chill home dynamic.
  
  As stated before, most of the projects will require at least some manual tasks, but there are tons of creative projects as well.

  I would be very interested in hosting native French and Spanish speakers to practice with. This is a passion of some that live here and would be wonderful to host!

  Unterkunft

  We can provide a few different sleeping arrangements, depending on your preferences. We offer plenty of fresh food if you would like to cook for yourself and/or the house, and will provide a cooked meal 2-3 times per week, but depends on work and social schedules. We love trying new food, and if you like to cook or want to learn, that's awesome too! We'll provide a place to stay, access to transportation, and access to a little meat, fruit, grains, and veggies (for big meat eaters, you can eat all you like, but we just stay concious of our consumption) We have laundry onsite, a large open communal area and a lot of space for relaxing.
