    Description

    Join a little piece of paradise near a little town and help my mother with gardening and some housework and to fix up some stuff around the house (for example repairing the fence, pile the wood for the winter, help in the garden or make a new garden, if you are interested in). We have much land and a big house, there's always some stuff to do ;-).
    My mum was a biologist and German teacher, she loves birds and know everything about it, she can give you also German lessons, she also is interested in other languages, she would be glad if you can teach her some words in your language (but german speakers are also welcome ;-) ). He have a lake in front of our home, you can swim there whenever you want.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    My mum worked as a german teacher and biology teacher. He has much knowledge in gardening, and she loves animals, she knows everything about the local birds. She can show you around. We are only 40km from the switzer and austrian frontiere, so you can go for a journee to discover the mountains or our "Southern sea" (Bodensee).
    The trainstation is only 300m from our home.

    Help

    We are searching for somebody or a couple who want to help some maintain help around the house and the garden, mostly easy tasks, but people with carpenter knowledge are pretty welcome. Your help can include : pile wood, repair a rooftop, cooking, gardening, clean up. If you are able to, some work with the chainsaw and other.. It depends on you and your knowledge, there is always something you can do. My mum has three cats and would love to have chicken, so it could be great to build a chicken coop. There isn't much help needed, you won't help more than 3-4 hours a day, 5 days a week. I have a horse, which lives 2km away from our house. She is old now, but if you just would like to go to see her sometimes or to brush her, go for it!
