    Description

    7.8. - 26.8. can stay for few days or longer.

    I’m a spiritually inclined individual with a deep interest in Japanese culture, currently studying the language. This August, I’m looking for someone to help out around my homestead for a few weeks. I’ll take care of all the hard or unpleasant tasks. What I’d really appreciate is a helping hand with house cleaning, cooking, brushing my dog, and perhaps giving me some help with my Japanese studies.

    My dog is a well-behaved Rough Collie, you’re bound to love him.

    In exchange, I offer accommodation in a cozy bungalow next to my main house. You'll have your own private room and bathroom, and plenty of free time to enjoy the peaceful charm of the village of Weißenberg. If you'd like to explore the surrounding areas, I’ll be happy to assist with that as well.

    The homestead includes a spacious house with a garden, a separate building nearby equipped with a gym (which you're welcome to use), and a second garden/farm just a 10 minute walk away. I keep a variety of animals there, including poultry, rabbits, and even sheep.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I desire to learn Japanese and more about Japanese culture and provide experience in German countryside. Your activities depend on your own initiative, but I will help you find and plan things.
    You can visit nearby German towns and villages as well as participate in possible cultural activities in nearby towns.

  • Help

    Help

    I will be taking care of all the properties on my own for a few weeks, so I would welcome some minor assistance depending on your abilities. Mostly things that are simple but take time, like cleaning the house, cooking, brushing my dog and teaching me Japanese. I want to learn Japanese and something about Japanese culture, so this position is exclusive for Japanese.

    There will be very little tasks requested by me, so you will likely have to fund your own meals, but we can also cook together.

    The village Weißenberg has few activities to offer aside of beautiful atmosphere and countryside, but there is a bus stop in the middle that can take you around. I can also lend you a bicycle.
    My life is very peaceful, so make sure I hope you wont get bored.
