  Help

  We expect from travellers to help us to maintain or gain language skills, speaking English, German or Spanish with us. We would like to meet people from other cultures, and arouse the curiosity/open the mind of our son towards other ways of life / languages....
  My husband and I both work so we would also need help in the housekeeping (cooking (with our organic vegetables), cleaning, ... but also in some weeding outside, henhouse cleaning, wood storage, fruit harvesting…
