  Update September 2023:
  We Look for 1-2 Workawayers right now ;-) for one or two weeks
  
  Main work are:
  - Painting work in the house (mainly mask and paint walls and ceilings)
  - Tile work in the house + plumbing
  - Cleaning parts of the house and windows
  - Clear out cellar and other rooms
  - Small carpentry work (mainly repairs)
  - Clean house facade and window niches with high pressure cleaner (work on ladder)
  - Mounting railing for terrace (hammer drill, angle grinder, mounting...)
  - cooking and help around the kitchen
  - sell furniture on online plattforms (german requested)
  - child caring
  
  Now about us:
  We are three people, two adults and a four year old child. We like to share the things, practice a collaborative way of life. At the moment mostly Theodor is at the place, Sera lives mainly in Basel.
  
  Our house was till 2007 a small school for about 20 children of some farms in the surrounding area.
  We transformed it to a pleasant community house with some comfort.
  
  The house is 5 minutes (by car) or one hour walk from the small village. It's surrounded by nature (trees, meadows, rivers, cows...), so it's a good place for hiking and just 'to be' without noise, cars or other 'stuff'.
  
  I, Sera, personally like playing games, playing music (piano, guitar), cooking, hiking, being with my son.
  I live an alternative life, try to use my heart not just only the mind. I'm connected to nature, humans, spirituality and consciousness. At the moment I live mostly in Basel and just visit this place for holiday or +/- one weekend per month.
  
  Theodor is a true all-rounder with experience in many areas of craft and work. He likes community building and looks forward to people with spirit, heart and yearning beyond civilization for true magic and transition - people who are self empowered and are able to initiate rather than to wait for orders. At the moment he is in the house around 3-4 days a week, the other days he is in Basel.
  
  Our interests, that we also like to share with Workawayers:
  - Spirituality
  - self awareness (Emotions, patterns, self responsibility)
  - Connection (to myself, to others, to the - lets say - universe)
  - Body health (good nurriture, yoga, ...)
  - Wild herbs
  - Free learning (Home schooling)
  just to name some...

  You can learn about the rural life in Switzerland. You could learn the language, I can also teach some (juggling) games. I can give you advise about hiking in the area. In winter you can go skiing (if there is snow...). There are some rivers where you can take a bath - or you use our sauna in winter ;)
  We're open to receive workawayer's with children.

  Arbeit

  - Gardening: no vegetables at the moment... more weeding, prepare compost and so on.
  - General maintenance: wood works, renovation, painting,...
  - cooking / shopping / cleaning: we like to share the necessary tasks in the house, there are many windows to clean...
  - Art project: We are interested in making the place nicer, fancier, inspiring ;-)
  - There are a lot of things we want to sell (maybe flea market) or give away (German skills needed).
  
  What are your skills? We are open to receive what you feel like to give. We like if people help in an independent and creative way, and we don't like to 'control' everything you do...

  Unterkunft

  You'll live in a private room with a normal bed and have your private space.
  You'll use the community parts of the house: common kitchen, a big multipurpose room (piano, party, relaxing, workshops, playground, workout, boxing …), sauna, small library, sports ground…
  We like to cook and eat together, but it's ok if you have other needs.
  We also like to share the work that comes up during the day, like cooking, cleaning...

  Was noch ...

  The next village is 5km, you can walk (1 hour) or maybe use the car / get a ride.
  The place is good for hiking and enjoying the nature.
  In Langnau (30min by car) you'll find some nice shops.
  
  Normally you help at your own or we try to find two Workawayers that help on the same time.
  You can also bring your Workaway-friend ;)
