  Help

  The children keep us busy so we can use help in different things. Together we can have a look what fits. We can use help in the garden, the vegetable garden (we would like to change the place of it this year), building a serre. Spending time with the children will help us a lot. If you like it, you can cook or do some small tasks in the household.
  We are looking for somebody with affinity for nature, gardening, eco lifestyle and important also with children.

  What else ...

  We are living a bit in the middle of nowhere, so if you would like to be mobile, it's the best to come by car or otherwise by bike. We live 10 min from a village where you can find some basic things like: a small supermarket, bakery, post office, cafe, market, pharmacie, swimming pool and a small cinema!
  The area is mostly great for walks and bike tours, lots of nature around.
