Creative projects and outdoor activities in the forest and along the coast in Nyråd, Denmark

  Beschreibung

  We are a family of four living in an old half-timbered house outside Vordingborg.
  
  Mum works with schools on sustainability projects, dad works on development projects with local (sailing) associations, and we speak Danish and German at home. Our daughter is turning three in late summer and is in Kindergarden, our son is five months old. We have a forest as a direct neighbor which we use a lot for walks, and the coast is only a 10 minute walk away. Mum loves kayaking and dad loves sailing.
  
  We have renovated our house and have created a cosy guest section for Workawayers, with a private bathroom, a room with a balcony and a small kitchenette too.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  We are experienced in cultural exchange as we have hosted several “bonus Grannies” who have helped with out children and around the house. We’d describe ourselves as openminded and social, and we share meals with you (and the work!) . In our area, there are many possibilities for outdoor activities in the forrest and along the coast, and also arts and culture (especially on the island of Møn which is located in our proximity).
  We hope to share our skills regarding biobased materials and rainwater garden design, and hope to learn from you (in similar areas, or in a different one: We’re curious about food from different cultures).

  Arbeit

  Hi there, we are a family of four (children aged 3 and 7 months) speaking Danish, German and Hungarian at home, as mum Kirsten is half German half Hungarian and dad Søren is Danish. We are looking for help around the house, help with cooking family meals and especially: people who can help us transform our old half-timbered house and our garden into a climate-adapted set-up that can handle moisture from large amounts of rainwater, as we are experiencing cloudbursts every year and the water moistens up our outer walls. Our house has a thatched roof and we want to lead water away from the house and into bioretention beds where rainwater can accumulate during extreme rainfall events. In this proces, we are also recreating the traditional surfacing of the walls (lime plaster).
  Furthermore, we have plenty of smaller DIY projects to be done, involving painting with linseed paint, building a wildlife hedge, insulating the workshop, mowing the lawn, helping with small furniture renovation — all depending on the time of the year, your skills and your interests.
  
  We are particularly interested in German and Hungarian speaking workawayers, as that would greatly contribute to our aim of raising our children with three languages.
  
  We can teach you about clay, lime plaster and other bio-based and breathable materials. We have a professional wood worker who solves the more complex maintenance tasks, but we ourselves do some of the lighter tasks which we’d like help with.
  
  Kirsten has been working on biobased materials and raingardens in educational contexts and we are happy to share our knowledge.

  We are very interested in workawayers speaking Hungarian or German as their mother tongue, as we are speaking German, Hungarian and Danish at home and raising our children to learn these languages (mum Kirsten is half German half Hungarian and dad Søren is Danish).

  Unterkunft

  We have a newly renovated section in our house that is available for you, including a very nice room with balcony and a double bed, a small kitchenette and a private bathroom. There is a separate entrance to the guest section. Please note that the ceilings are low, so if you are very tall, you’ll have to watch your head!
  
  We can also provide camping and a location for a camper van, including power. We have an outdoor shower (but at the moment, it is not connected yet…)
  
  You will join us for three daily meals. We would like to share the cooking and cleaning up after dinner task so that each adult resumes responsibility for cooking and cleaning up twice a week. With you as the third person, we have 6 six days of the week covered :-)
  We are very interested in getting to know food from your culture.
