Description
Dear Workaway Travellers,
I live with my extended family on a small horse farm in the north of Bavaria. We practice westernstyle riding and natural horsemanship. Our tiny village is surrounded by beautiful nature, with many forests and hills. The next little town is within 4 km distance, with bigger cities at about 50 km.
I'd like to host a DIY handyman/woman who likes horses and helping in and around the farm with repairs, upkeeping, and keeping company and looking after dog, cat, and older horses, that are retired from the small riding school that I operate on the side but the activities of which are NOT part of the WorkAway duties. In exchange for your efforts, we can offer German languange exchange, taking part to our family life, experiencing the culture of Bavaria and, should you be interested, and learn more about horses and natural horsemanship. If intersted, WorkAwayers will enjoy meals and family activities with us# and we always enjoy a game night!
For the best experience for everyone, I kindly ask for a stay of at least 3 weeks.
So possibly see you soon!?
Always have a safe travel! -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You can learn German (native language) or practice your English.
You can learn about horse and natural horsemanship.
You can walk, hike, and have fun in our beautiful nature.
You can get to know our Bavarian food culture - Uwe (my partner) is wonderful cook and there is always dessert - and just enjoying being with nice people and a big family.
If you want to visit other cities - it's easy to drop and fetch you to the train station. -
Help
I will be looking after the working horses and western riding school while you will be helping with the other animals (dog, cat, and retired horses). This includes feeding, cleaning (animals and their dwellings), and cuddling. While every day is different, usually, in the morning, we work from 8 for 1.5 - 2 hours before breakfast, then about 1 hour after breakfast. In the afternoon the animals, dwellings and food will be prepared for the night - which takes also about 1 hour.The Rest of the time can be filled with work in the garden , the house or somthing else, as needed.

Thanks to Laura we were able to clear out our attic and did a good deal of reorganizing the house. She was great with our animals and took the mucking part as her daily workout.
She was working hard, with initiative and always in good mood.
Hope to see you again and always drop in if you happen to be near!

We had the most wonderful time with Uschi, Reinhard and ALL the animals.. it's a real struggle to put it into words. The setting of their beautiful place is great- this tiny little village surrounded by forrest and farmland. Although some may consider it isolated, it is really wonderful to get away from it all (and there are towns nearby!). We

Uschi and Reinhard asked us for help...
and we came a month in August 2011.
It was a fantastic time for both sides
so we had a lot of fun and a great time with many laughter.
We learned something about horses which was a new experience for us ...
We lived like a big family together and we still have a very good contact.

Dieter and Doris were with us and the time changed. Everything went on to be a bit smoother, quicker, much more funny and a lot healthier by cooking fresh food and avoiding to eat murdered animals. Dieter analyses work to be done and organises the quickest way to manage. He helped everywhere he saw it was needed. Doris brought sunshine in

To have Paul around your place, so you are lucky to have somebody hard working, knowing what he's doing and always open to learn new things. We had great fun, great musik and I hope he will drop in again to our place.
When you are a bit sick of the Irish rain - then just have a change, have the cold weather of this place!

I spent nearly 3 weeks with Uschi and Rinehard and had a great experience. If your into horses then look no further. Uschi is kind, thoughtful and is a great host providing comfortable accommodation and lovely food.

Christopher just shmashed himself in the new business of doing everything around horses and with his "wanting-to-know-why" attituide about everything, his questions also made us think about our dayily routine again. Which turned out to be quite useful.

Staying at Uschi & Reinhard's place was one of the most amazing things to have ever happened to the both of us. From the moment we arrived to the one we left, we created and shared so many memories with the "Kunz!?" family that I think we've both solidified ourselves a home away from home.

Uschi is a really special and open-hearted person and her way of handling horses is - in my eyes - simply great. The work you have to do is hard but you'll get used to it
