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 25 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 renovations and around the farm (garden, forest). The work is not extreme, but it IS physical, so some previous experience working with your hands would be beneficial.
