Description
Hey lovely People,
my boyfriend and i had bought an old farm yard near Vienna. But we dont use it as a farm yard yet. At the moment we are in the renovation process. Vienna is the captial city of Austria and its only 20 minutes away from our home by car and 30 minutes by train. We are a very open minded and young family/community. We love diversity and we have a disabled child named Noah. We also have 2 dogs and 2 pigs. We are searching for people who are interested to help us with our place. Because Markus and i are very busy in our jobs and with our son Noah. The work you have to do is mostly helping in the garden, helping to renovate the place, cleaning, helping in household and sometimes care for our pigs. My boyfriend is eventmanager and has a metalworking shop at the place. In your freetime you can go to vienna or enjoy the beautiful natur around us. Its also possible to use our own yoga/sport room. We have many bicycles you can borrow. The train is in the next village and the bus station in the front of our door. But you can also enjoy your time at our home. In some parts of the year many friends visit us and in summer, if the time allows, we celebrate very often our live :) our place is open for everyone!
Maybe you are the one? Than write me, i am looking forward to hear from you!
see you soon

You can also visit a typical austrian restaurant called "Heurigen", there a many around us! If you are a naturelover, you can enjoy definitly the nature around us.
Help
helping in the garden, helping in the household, helping to renovate the place, cleaning, sometimes care for our pigs, and a special seasonal thing is helping to burn our own schnapps :)
We are very flexible what means that we could individual talk about the working hours and time. But it should be a good balance between give and take :) on the weekend normally you don't have to help us, but when we need something really urgently than it could happen.
Maybe a important infomation for you is that you mostly work alone with other workawayer. But its clear that we show you how it works. And when you need help or anything else you can be sure we are here and help you! Markus works at Home.

Accommodation
We have 3 guestrooms (1 of it is a double room) so you have your own room ( you see it on the Pictures) but you have to share the bathroom and the kitchen with other guests. In colder month you have to heat with wood. Its also possible to use a washing machine.
Food is included, it would be very nice when we sometimes cook together, but mostly you cook by yourself or with the other workawayer, we have a guest Kitchen that could be used. One time per week mostly at the beginning we give you money and you can go to the grocery store and buy what you need to eat.
For us its very important that you respect our place/things and keep it clean! We are really interested that both of us enjoy your stay and we find a solution for everything :)
