Description
We are a family of 6 - 4 kids and a a mum and dad who are working on becoming self-sufficient. We live zero waste to the largest extent we can. We home school and are all were creative. We got this idea, that it could be a good way to get practical stuff done, as well as a good way for the kids to get to know about people from other places. Our kids study English, German, Chinese and Japanese. We also love music, making our own stuff, dancing, movies, board games, classical literature, playing instruments, nature and animals. We are free people and like Socrates, we like to discuss and question everything. We love life and examine every opportunity to obtain deeper understanding of what this universe is really all about.
