Dear volounters,
I am looking for 2-3 of you, as a tandem or team, to help me, and for longer time, if it is possible.
I would be happy if somebody (M/F) could found his pleasure in doing household tasks (cleaning bigger appartment, cooking for me and volounters, gardening for household needs - etc.
Also, I wish a lot 2 "handy-man" - I prefer man - for heavier tasks - clean the forrest and prepare wood for a winter time, repair work, which requires strength and experience, cutting grass (also with manual slanted, at parts wich are not ok for the machine), feeding the horses and cleaning their stable every day (morning or evening), take care for the riding place sometimes, etc.
My property is 8,5ha big, 2,5 ha is wood and my 2 hands are simply not enough for all the things I have to do...
I welcome visitors from all over the world to my property. I expect serious, responsible, self-reliant people who, urgent, have experience by working with horse so far, that take them to the pasture or to the stable, for ex., is not a problem. I also have a dog, 8 cats, 11 chickens and 2 duck - animal lovers soul is necessary. A sense of humour is also very much appreciated! If you could take me and my animal-familie for yours, we will all do the best for us and for the world.
Please note that I am vegetarian and prefer not to cook meat for my volunteers. I hope this is not a problem. Minimum stay of 3 weeks preferred with longer stays possible if we are compatible. I look forward to hearing from you.
