  Description

  What we are about
  
  There are two interconnected goals at our space our home life and curating a vibrant community hub. We seek to create a space which facilitates action, connection, creativity, and togetherness.
  
  We aim to cultivate a space of welcomeness, fun, consent and care. Our community is queer-friendly, and fosters intentional and diverse ways of relating.
  
  Be welcome
  
  The home is a large space with a lot of potential for community organising and collective events. There is a more private part of the house, where the residents live and a more communal part of the house for guest, travellers and potentially you!
  
  It lives through people bringing life back into this old house that was empty for 30 years. There are many ways to enjoy and shape the space. You can come here for one of a few weeks, co-working alongside others, cooking together, exploring the forest and area around or getting active with your hands, creativity and skills for projects in the house and garden. You are welcome to stay in one of our guest rooms or bring your own accommodation, so far we’ve hosted vans, tents, hammocks and horses!
  
  Spending time here
  Some days here are quiet and calm, where you can slow down from regular life - and before checking any messages, you can take a walk in the forest and make breakfast with eggs from our chickens, you can even join in feeding them, and if you are patient, they will eat out of your hand in no time. Other times, the house is full of people for a community weekend, a party, pear harvesting, or working on a shared project together. At times you will find hot coffee ready made waiting for you in the kitchen, while kind, interesting and open people debate the latest politics, a recent festival, the ins and outs of (poly) relationships, kimchi making and such...

  What's this?

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Our household is international and English-speaking, creating a mix of cultures and perspectives. We share a wide range of interests, and while we enjoy working on small and big projects together, we also value personal space and balancing shared time with individual pursuits. We love having people over and creating a welcoming, social atmosphere. Occasionally, we explore the surrounding area together. Many of us also enjoy staying active, with morning runs or bike rides being a regular part of our routine. You’ll have the chance to experience a relaxed yet dynamic environment that encourages both connection and independence.

  Help

  We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help with a variety of tasks around our property. In the garden, there’s always plenty to do—pruning trees, planting, weeding, and creating paths to improve the space. Around the house, we could use a hand with general maintenance and small projects to keep everything in great shape. We’re also working on improving the overall condition of the house, so if you’re handy or enjoy DIY projects, you’ll feel right at home here. If you’re a creative soul with ideas for new projects, we’re always open to hearing and exploring them together!

  Accommodation

  Guests will stay in our guest dorm, which is equipped with beds or mattresses to ensure. You are welcome to bring your own accommodation, like a tent, hammock or car also. We provide everything you’ll need, including towels, blankets, pillows, and sheets. The bathroom is shared. As the house is old, most things are a bit rustic, but mostly functional.
  We have a communal kitchen which you can use. Sometimes we have shared meals, sometimes we each make our own food.
  
  We confirm that there are no paying guests at our property.
