Details

  • Description

    Description

    We are an international (Polish/American, French/German) family living on the outskirts of Freiburg in the Black Forest. Our house lies in a lovely valley - we overlook the mountains on all sides and have a large meadow directly behind the house. It takes about 10 minutes to get to Freiburg city center with the car - about 30 minutes with the bus or bike.

    We would love to welcome you into our home!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Freiburg is a beautiful city with lots of activities for all times of the day or year. We also live in a sparsely populated area, surrounded by trees, meadows, and mountains - there are hiking and biking trails all around.

    Should you be looking to learn German, there are lots of language courses in Freiburg (we can also help you practice!).

    Help

    We are looking for help with our boys, Oskar (3,5 years old) and Viktor (1,5 year old) while we are at work or on the farm / renovating.
    Oskar is a very happy and energetic boy; he loves music, dancing, and playing outside :)
    Viktor, meanwhile, is one of the calmest toddlers ever to grace the earth (he usually just eats, looks around, and sleeps) <3

    We are also looking for help with renovation work!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    In the summer, your accommodation would either be a camper van (inside is a bed, small kitchen, small WC, and a sitting area) or our garden house. Shower/regular bathroom is in the Farmhouse on the pictures (a few meters away).
    In the colder months, you would have a room in the house we are renovating.
    Every week, we would supply you with food which you can make in the tourist kitchen in the Farmhouse (or sometimes you would eat with us).

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We find it very important that the children spend as much time as possible outside (weather permitting).
    We also want them exposed as little as possible to electronics; for this reason, we ask that our workaways please leave their phones in their personal space and do not have them out around the children.
