Beschreibung
My name is Angela and I live with my husband and two kids (20+24) in Glashütten, in the Taunus region, 30 minutes from Frankfurt.
Our eldest took off last May for work&travel to South East Asia and she convinced me to be a host here in Germany.
This winter /spring 2020 we could use some helping hands in the garden with weeding, ideally you do not mind working at this climate temperatures outdoors and would like to help me indoors with house spring cleaning.
this summer 2020 we will be starting an ECO microhouse (72m²) low-energy building project in our garden.
We welcome skilled builders, carpenters, drywall specialist, painters to join this project.
Chef 's or enthusiastic hobby cook 's , Physical therapists or physical trainers and garden lovers are welcomed throughout the year. Different professions ;) are welcomed too, please take a look at our open projects and other help required below.
I'm using a walking-aid due to a autoimmune muscle weakness and am therefore not able to work in the house and garden as I would like. So a helping hand is always welcomed ;)

The Taunus area where we live offers a lot of nature and woods to go walking. We live next to the Feldberg, a high mountain that is great for hiking, mountain biking and running. In the winter it is very popular for sledging. Frankfurt city is 30 mins away by car. With 1 bus & 1 train it takes 1 hour and to Frankfurt. The bus station is 10 mins away if you walk slowly. I'm happy to help you find a transfer route where you would want to go :)

You would have your own private room & separate own bathroom.

No Smoking please.
Was noch ...
If I can manage i try to have Breakfast and Lunch together with our workawayers ;) we prepare it usually together or you make your own.
Dinner is usually prepared and taken by yourself. Sometimes we can have dinner together.
Due to a long working day, my husband is exhausted and prefers to have a quiet dinner with the family. We enjoy our privacy in the evenings, so workawayers are encouraged to arrange to have their dinner before and retreat to their quarters or enjoy some of the various outdoor activities.
The house is quite large so you can enjoy your privacy and retreat in the groundfloor/garden and pool area while we live in the 1st floor.

We have a nice big indoor pool that you can use and lots of nature and forest nearby to hike and explore in your free time. Königstein which is a very nice small city just a few minutes away by bus is very nice too or if you feel more like city life you may explore Frankfurt.
In 10-15min walking distance we have a REWE supermarket, Aldi , Coffeeshop, bakery and a Postoffice.

彼らは日本やアジアの文化、食事が大好物！きっと彼女のアジアンコレクションをみたら驚くでしょう！私は滞在中はほぼ毎日和食を作ってました。もしあなたが料理好きなら、彼らは和食レストランが自宅で！と大歓迎することでしょう♪ぜひ、餃子やおにぎり、お寿司、てんぷら、もちろん、伝統的な和食も大好きなので作ってあげてください。アンジェラ自身もすごい料理上手だし、こだわりがものすごいので、一緒に料理すると勉強になるしとっても楽しいですよ♪
彼女はホストとして、人としてとても素晴らしい人です。いつも笑顔、ポジティブでユーモアもあるし、褒め上手！彼女の不屈の精神にいつも驚かされ、見習わせてもらいます。いろんな相談にも乗ってくれます。滞在中どこか旅行行く場合も、色々調べるのを手伝ってくれたり、困ったことにもいつも嫌な顔せず助けてくれました。一緒に体操や室内プールで泳いだり、時々彼女のリハビリに付き合って運動することもありました。彼女にはマッサージやトレーニングも必要なので、もし、何か健康に関する技術や知識があれば喜ばれるでしょうが、日常生活（特に料理）やガーデニング(ハーブ園は色んな種類があって、料理につかうと最高です！）の手伝いが主に求められます。大豪邸と豪華な景色と食事付きの田舎暮らしは本当に最高です！近くに散歩道も沢山あります。
難点が、結構な田舎なので、隣町までバスか車でしか行けないので、国際免許があるといいのと、フランクフルトまでは1時間ほどですが、バスと列車の乗り継ぎが必要で、バスの本数が少ないため冬場は結構大変でした。雪も降るので・・・でも、旦那さんや娘さんが必要時車を出してくれる時もあります。私はちょうどクリスマスシーズンで、毎週どこかのクリスマスマーケットをみに、ドイツ中を旅行したり、オランダまでいったりしてとても楽しかったです。
旦那さんはやっぱりドイツ人！ビールやワインの晩酌に付き合ってあげたら喜びますよー。大好物はおにぎり！娘さんもしっかりしてて、家の手伝いもするし、とってもかわいい子です♪
彼らのほとんど親せき兄弟一家にも会う機会があり、みなさんとても素晴らしい人ばかりで、短い時間の中で親しくさせていただき、次回またドイツに行くことがあれば、彼らを訪ねていくことも楽しみです！
延長し、予定よりも長く滞在させてもらえて、クリスマス、新年と楽しくドイツの魅力を満喫できたのは、本当に素晴らしい経験でした。皆さんにお伝えしきれないほどです。
ぜひ、アンジェラを手助けしながら、ここで多くのことを学んで欲しいと思います。ちなみに彼らは全員英語が話せます。もし、可能ならお土産に抹茶ミルクキャンディか新宿高野ヨーグルトプルーンを買って行ってあげると喜びますよ♪（これは私の彼らを喜ばせたいという勝手な思いなので、強制ではありませんので！）
