  Beschreibung

  Hello my name is Reed. I am an electrician. I traveled the world for 13 months from Feb of 2019 until March of 2020 did a few Workaways along the way. At the end of March I came home to be with family during the pandemic. I rented a little room and worked doing fire alarm work. Worked for two years then took back off in my pickup truck across the USA. I drove around for 6 months and did a few Workaways at some intentional communities. I really loved what they had going on. So I decided to come home and buy a house with some land to hopefully have something like that one day.
  
  I just bought the house in July of 2023 and I’m in the process of redoing a lot of the inside and outside of the house. I bought a pig and two goats to help me with the landscaping 😆. They are very sweet, hard working animals. I love them :-) I work 5 days a week as an electrician and am working on the house after work and on the weekend. I had a small garden but I got a late start and didn’t have enough to can this year. Would really love to expand the garden next spring. I like to cook good home cooked meals and would be interested in other dishes visitors love to make too. We always make time for fun :-).
  
  I’ve really been into foraging mushrooms and plants for last 7 years. We live in Purcellville VA. We are about 10 minutes from Harpers Ferry WV and an hour from Washington DC and an hour from Baltimore MD. There is tubing company’s that take you down the Potomac River within 5 min from my house. We are also surrounded by breweries and wineries. It’s such a beautiful place in the world.

  Unterkunft

  We have two rooms and one bathroom for the guest in the main house. There are places to park if you are traveling in a RV or van. I will be providing three meals a day. Breakfast and lunch are kinda help yourself to what’s in the kitchen. We always have oatmeal, fresh fruit, cereal and eggs. Dinner I like to cook or maybe the guest can give me a grocery list and they can make their favorite dishes.if you are vegan or vegetarian then we will accommodate for that.
