Description
We are a family of 4 (Juliette 37, Erik 34, Camille 4, Héloïse 2 1/2 month) living in a cosy House with a 1000 square meters garden, Chooks, indian running ducks,, rabbits and two funny Pigs, a Dog and two Cats. We try to grow our own organic vegetables and are looking forward to realise a lot of new projects during summer like:

Building a
- outdoor Kitchen (already finished :) )
- aquaponic system
- treehouse
- geéodestique Dome (already done :) )
- an outdoor sauna (already done)
- Remake and expand our truck (Skydancer)
- expand the chicken coop/pigsty

We are looking for nice and helpful People. We also have plenty of work inside the house if the weather is bad ... We have a few helpers that swing by on a more or less regular basis... we also help you whenever we have time, so should see good progress this year!

3-4 hours help per day, 5 days a week.

We are also very active in an organisations, which is an non Profit Organisation to save Food and could also need help with that.

In exchange we offer you free accommodation, free food, WiFi and a lot of fun...

Wir sind eine Vierer-Familie, die eigentlich immer in Action ist. Unser Haupthobby ist zur Zeit der Umbau und die Renovierung unseres schönen Hauses, das jedoch noch schöner werden soll.
Dazu werden wir dieses Jahr einen Yogaraum bauen und den Garten mit heimischen Pflanzen umgestalten und aufhübschen. Wir träumen von umgebauten Shippingcontainern, Tiny Houses und Selbstversorgung.

In unserer Freizeit sind wir sehr gerne on Tour, am liebsten mit unserem Wohnmobil. Besonders gut gefallen hat uns Neuseeland im Camper, Australien, Kolumbien und Südafrika. Die Westküste von Australien wollen wir unbedingt noch nachholen. In Asien haben wir auch einiges abgeklappert, mit Kindern war Koh Lanta echt super easy...

Wir lieben unkomplizierte und familienfreundliche Unterkünfte und sind meist auf der Suche nach guter Athmosphäre. Ja, und was können wir euch bieten? Wir haben keinen Strandzugang, keinen Swimming Pool und Hochdorf-Assenheim ist vermutlich noch auf dem Weg zur Weltstadt, aber gemütlich ist es bei uns trotzdem. :-)

Kommt doch mal vorbei! Wir freuen uns auf euch!

I only stayed here for a very short amount of time, so can’t really say I got all of the place I would have liked! But it was great! Juliette and her family were expecting a baby at this time, so they were needing more help with everything :). They are a wonderful family, full of joy, they have a beautiful home with animals and lots of nature. I… read more

The time I spent here was a memory I’ll always treasure! The girls were so sweet and Juliette and Erik were so nice and helpful. Juliette even helped me when I said I wanted to try working in a bakery. The animals were adorable and the work felt more fun than work. The work was flexible with the hours and was mostly cleaning, fixing the bedrooms,… read more

We absolutely loved our stay with Juliette and Erik and their 2 adorable daughters. We really felt welcome and at home when we stayed there and the work we did was always rewarding (many projects were finished ;-))! We stayed for 10 days and in that time we helped build a bird cage for the quails, re-organised the wood shed, stripped the camper… read more

The family are very kind and open-minded, and they speak very good english, by the way. We, the workaway´s, slept in a… read more

Edgar was coming to our place with his two friends, Sandra and Carma. They stayed for two weeks and help us out with gardening, cooking, animalcare, babysitting and maintenance around the house and our guestrooms. They slept in our old caravan that was not in the best shape at this time. Thank you for that!!! All of them are very easy going people… read more
