    **Update May 2025**
    Due to some back problems (Hernia) I'm unable to walk my Doggie, and I have to be careful with doing stuff in the House, lifting things etc.

    Looking for someone who loves dogs and enjoys Nature and likes to help with small tasks in- and around the house. I'm interested in conscious living, eat mainly vegetarian and would be nice if someone shares this as well :)

    Enjoy the peaceful village life and help with with some further house renovations and daily tasks.

    Looking for ways to live a more free easy-going life, connected with nature and you have some experience with house renovations, maybe this could be the place for you :)

    After 2 years of working as a volunteer via Workaway myself, I bought this little stone house in September 2021. The left side I have been renovating to make it a space for living and now I started with the right part of the house (former shed) to create there a small Ceramic studio, for workshops. There are still some project to do; putting in windows/ making the garden, some small renovation work, helping me take care of my sweet doggy Felicia :)

    I fell in love with ceramics some years years ago, while being on a 'soul-searching' trip in Bali. After a period of healing from a burn-out I realised what real happiness means to me. I decided to live my passion, be creative, connect with nature and offer a space where others can enjoy a more slow way of living.

    I'm 39 years old, born in The Netherlands but always loved the adventure and traveling. The area is quite beautiful for it's nature and nice walks. If you are looking for a city life, lots of things to do, then probably this isn't your place. If you like to spend time in nature, interested in a more conscious way of living, like to do practical/ physical work and like to meet (German speaking) people in the town, maybe this would be a good match :) I like to have people around, but as an introvert I also love my 'me-time'.

    As the area is beautiful with the valleys and hills it's a really good time to connect with nature again, go hiking, biking... I have a kayak and within 2min walk you are at the Mosel river. The little project can help you to develop new skills related to building, connect with nature and discover local villages.

    The house will be shared with me most of the time. The house isn’t really big so 2 Workawayer’s are the maximum. The guestroom which is for Workawayers has 2 single beds. Food will be available (vegetarian, feel free to get meat if you want) and sometimes we can eat together or you can make for yourself. All easygoing :)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    It's a cute little village. The nature is beautiful and perfect for nice walks, swimming in the river, kayakking. The surrounding area is more touristic in the summer, many nice old villages are around. There is a bus in the village that connects with the surrounding villages. A small trainstation is about a 15min drive where I could pick you up if necessary.
