    Description

    We are a family of 4 currently traveling in Europe. Markus (45), Julia (43), Josch (8) and Livia (6).
    We are Germans and during the summer months we spend time in Germany in my Mother in laws house. it's a black Forest Farmhouse with plenty of space outdoors and indoors. We are outdoor people and need to be outdoor a lot. We are a very active and the kids are normal kids, they are loud and wild... We love to eat (mostly vegetarian). Josch is into BMX and would love to have a Motocross and he loves music like Metallica, Rock or Country and Livia is into animals and would love to have a horse. Markus is also very much into Sports (especially Padel) and I (Julia) love to be creative as well.

    Accommodation

    The big farm house consists of 4 apartments (the four of us use 2 apartments because they are small) so the workaway would have their own private space. And workaway lives in the same house.

    We usually eat together when everyone is at home. Either we cook for all of us or the workaway can prepare something themselves. We are flexible, whatever suits best.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    There is lots of hiking trails/Mountainbike Trails available just outside th ehouse. Or you take the bus to the beautiful city of Freiburg. Also France and Switzerland are reachable by the Bus/Train. There is a lot to explore in the Black Forest area.
