Description
We are Christine and Joachim, both 58 years old, and we live in a very friendly farming village about 25 km south of Augsburg, Bavaria.
Here we are creating a small ecological local recreation and holiday project, guided by intuition, with a lot of passion for design standarts, for example Art Déco. Our work is driven by the idea of creating atmospheric and livable spaces.
Our place includes a tree house, a circus wagon, a magical Mediterranean-style garden with beautiful lemon trees, and a friendly herd of goats. It is a peaceful and inspiring environment, surrounded by forests and nature.
Next to our home, we are currently renovating a small, old house, using preferably old, high-quality materials wherever possible. The aim is to turn it into a unique accommodation for future holiday guests. The project has already begun — one highlight so far is a spectacular climbing wall, built to bring an old vision to life.
We are looking for someone who enjoys hands-on work, has practical skills or experience, and would love to actively contribute to this renovation project. If you are interested in old houses, sustainable renovation, and working creatively on something meaningful, you will feel very welcome here.
Our daughter (30) lives nearby and regularly comes to support the projects.
Joachim enjoys long-distance runs through the surrounding forests, while Christine loves cooking good food for people and playing the accordion.
We offer shared meals, an open and welcoming atmosphere, and the opportunity to be part of an interesting and creative project. We enjoy working together, exchanging ideas, and creating a place with character, care, and meaning.
