  Beschreibung

  I’m a divorced father living near Freiburg, at the edge of the Black Forest. My house used to be home to a family of five, and it’s too big for me to keep up on my own. I work full time, so I’m looking for someone to help with simple garden and household tasks. The garden is small but overgrown, and the bus stop right at the house gives direct access to Freiburg, a vibrant university city with plenty to explore.
  
  Type of help
  Main tasks in the garden include:
  
  Removing weeds
  
  Cutting back hedges and plants
  
  Tidying up the outdoor area
  
  These tasks can be done independently while I’m at work. It’s straightforward help – no planting or creative landscaping needed.
  
  If you stay for a longer period, the garden alone might not provide enough help, so it can be helpful to assist with light household chores, like vacuuming for example. No experience is required, just a practical, flexible attitude.
  
  What I offer
  A comfortable place to stay, the chance to enjoy nature, and privacy while still being welcome to share meals or conversation. It’s a quiet, relaxed setting for someone who enjoys outdoor work and doesn’t mind a bit of household help.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  I’m only at home part of the time, so the cultural exchange here is relaxed and low-key. I enjoy meeting new people, love traveling, and am happy to chat in English (and a little French).
  
  While helping in the garden, you’ll likely have friendly encounters with neighbors, giving you a small taste of local life. The bus stop right at the house makes it easy to reach Freiburg, a vibrant university city with a diverse and lively atmosphere – perfect for exploring, meeting people, or joining events.
  
  Hosting someone from another culture is a chance for me to hear new stories and perspectives, and for you to experience everyday life in this part of Germany. It’s a simple, down-to-earth exchange, with plenty of freedom to explore and enjoy the surroundings.

  Arbeit

  Our garden is part of a small family home and needs some regular care. The main tasks are:
  
  Removing weeds
  
  Cutting back hedges and plants
  
  General tidying up of the outdoor area
  
  These are straightforward tasks that can be done independently – I am usually away at work during the day, so you would manage your own time in the garden. It’s not about planting new things or doing creative landscaping, just helping to keep everything from becoming too overgrown. No special experience is required, only a willingness to help outdoors with simple gardening tasks.

  Unterkunft

  You’ll have your own private room, which was formerly one of the children’s rooms. The room has a bed, wardrobe, and can be locked for your privacy.
  
  The house is quite large, so there won’t be any completely separate areas, and the kitchen is always accessible. We can coordinate if you’d like to share meals together. I enjoy cooking and baking, and I’m happy to involve you in preparing regional dishes, cakes, or other treats if you’re interested.

  Was noch ...

  The neighborhood is very quiet, so it’s easy to relax and sleep well at night. Freiburg, on the other hand, is lively and vibrant even in the evenings, offering plenty of cultural and social activities. The internet connection at the house is very good, so you can stay connected, work, or stream as needed.
