We’re a family of five, two adults and 3 children age 1-4 years. We’re trying to adjust our lifestyle to become more self sufficient and provide vegetables from our own land.
We want our children to experience other cultures like we have, and welcome cultural exchange in our home as we all love to meet new people with other backgrounds 😊

We would like help with these projects and also other ideas we’re developing. at wintertime the tasks will vary from helping around the house (cleaning and tidying) to building projects in the barn-restoring it.
