  Description

  We, Gerhard, Bianca, Lea (4), Selina (2) and Kristina (3Months) live together at an former Farminghouse.
  The Parents and the Brother of Gerhard live beside.
  
  We live in an beautiful Place surrounded by the nature.
  We like to be outdoor all day. We are growing vegetables for ourself in our garden. Gerhard is a beekeeper and hunter.
  We also have 2 dogs, 4 cats, 6 hens, 5 wallabys (not Austalia ;-)), 1 donkey and 1 cow that live with us.
  On our property there are fruit trees. The fruit is processed into juices, jams and schnapps.
  In our free time we like to go hiking in the mountains, cycling and horseback riding.
  
  We have the dream to open a market nursery and sell our vegetables, fruits, etc.
  
  Gerhard works full time and Bianca is on maternity leave
  
  Since the vegetable cultivation and the three children take up a lot of time, we would be happy about support in the everyday areas, in the household and with the children.
  
  Smokers are not welcome
