    Description

    I am a professional ecologic builder (earth, wood, bricks, straw...) located near the lake district in north-east Germany. Me (1980) and half time my daughter (2017) live in a beautiful tiny village surrounded by great nature. There is a big yard with a lot of new planted fruity and exotic trees. Slowly this place is turned into an arboretum and there is a tree house for guests. We are looking for neighbors with Bauwagen or a yurt.

    In spring and summer 2026 I am working mainly on the neighboring barn made of natural stones and bricks where I build a place to live. Its mainly building floor and walls of OSB bords while preserving the historic look of the outside. I am happy about a helping hand. Besides that there is sometimes gardening to do and here and there some work in and around the house. Cooking, cleaning, preparing the tree house for guests... And I started to build a guest room which needs to be finished. We will find something fitting for your skills and needs.
    I don't like requests from people who do not read the profile. So please mention "Bliblablubs" if you ask me to come to my place. Than I know you read all this. Thank you!
