    Description

    Hello:)

    **We are currently looking for one or two people who would like to stay for the whole of August**

    We are Tanja, Stefan, Jona (9) and Emely (18) together with our dogs Simba, Tilda and Yuki and our 15 chickens we live in Wahlwies very close to the beautiful Lake Constance.

    From time to time we will be looking for workawayers who can look after the chickens while we are away !

    About me (emely): After traveling with my girlfriend for 8 months in our car and through Workaway in Ireland, I now have the experience of being a host on Workaway myself :) When my family is away I will always be available to answer any questions and would love to get to know you a bit better! However, I am working all day and live with my girlfriend most of the time, so thats why we need help with the chickens.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live in beautiful surroundings, with lovely walks and lake views.
    It's about 20 minutes by bike to the lake, the train station is a 10-minute walk from our house. From there you can easily get to Radolfzell, Constance or Singen.

    If you want to get to know people, I (Emely) will be happy to introduce you to my friends, we like to spend evenings together, play cards, cook together or have a few drinks!


    When I am not at work, i would be happy to show you the area a little bit more, depending on what interests you!

    The chickens must be opened in the morning and brought back into the coop in the evening. During the day you have to check for water and feed from time to time. In the evening it is sometimes a bit difficult to get everyone into the right coop, but we will make sure you know everything before we leave!
    Emely currently lives with her girlfriend a few streets away and will always be available to answer questions and make sure everything is ok!

    Accommodation

    You will live in your own room in the house, it only has one bathroom, so when we are home we will share it. We will of course provide you with blankets and towels during your stay!

    As there is not much tasks involved you will have to buy some of your own food! But when we are away we will also leave some food for you.
