    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We do tasks and live together – everyone has their own area of responsibility, but harmonious coexistence is important to us. We are a German family and, after many years in various countries, have found our home in Uruguay. With us, workawayers can learn a lot about German culture, and we will always treat them like members of our family. Since we are trained craftspeople, they will also learn a great deal about German craftsmanship. We are always happy to learn more about other countries and cultures.

    Wir arbeiten und leben gemeinsam - jeder hat seinen eigenen Bereich, aber wichtig ist für uns ein harmonisches Miteinander. Wir sind eine deutsche Familie und haben nach vielen Jahren in verschiedenen Ländern unsere Heimat in Uruguay gefunden. Bei uns können workawayer viel über deutsche Kultur lernen und wir werden sie immer wie ein Mitglied unserer Familie behandeln. Da wir ausgebildete Handwerker sind, werden sie auch viel über deutsches Handwerk lernen. Wir freuen uns, wenn wir mehr über andere Länder und Kulturen erfahren.
