    Description

    We are an Austrian-Greek couple living in North Austria, owning a 4 hectare farm house where we harvest bio vegetables and fruits for our own use. Our small family is completed by two older boys with disabilities (Andy and Ernst) and the grandmother of the house (Elfie). At the moment we have a mom cow (Sissy) and her daughter (Lucia), seven sheeps and around thirty chicken. Also two dogs (Timo and Ruby) and four cats ( Luna, Yuri, Balu and Brownie) . We have been workawayers in the past and enjoyed all the best this kind of living can offer and teach you. We have been from Mexico to Japan and from Iceland to Morocco helping others and now it's our turn to host and meet new friends in our small quiet corner.
