Hi helpers,
we are a lively family of five, but our children are grown up (31, 34, 36) now. And we have 4 grandchildren, 3,5,7 and 10years, visiting us often,
We enjoy having people from other countries staying with us.
Our oldest daughter went to New Zealand and travelled as a helper. Some years ago in January, our second daughter went to Australia for 3 month and she had also a lot of very good experience.
So we thought it is a good idea to offer our lovely home for helpers.
There is always something to do.
It is possible, to use our internet and TV.
I speak English.
We hope seeing you soon!
Elke and Rudi

What else ...
We are living in a forest with a big lake infront of our doorstep.
We have got chucks, cats and of cause fish!
Our home is close to the river "Elbe" and the area "Altes-Land", a region which is famous for growing fruit trees such as apples, pears, cherries, plums,...
The closest city is Stade, where you can find a lovely historic city center.
Also the way to Cuxhaven, Hamburg and Bremen is only 1h to 1:30h.
The next train station (S-Bahn) is only 10 min. by foot, so there are lots of opportunities of spending hopefully sunny days in our region.
There will be shared meals everyday.
We cook not vegetarien either vegan and we will not cook extra meals.

The propriety is 1 meter next to the lake, very nice, you can do paddle or barque.
Rudi and Elke were very nice to me and even gave me money when I had a problem with my credit card. Thank you again.
First, this place is really amazing if you like to be in contact with the nature, walks in the forest, in a calm environment (but still a very good Internet connection). The bedroom was perfect for me and comfortable, with the wonderful view on the water and the beautiful tree. As I wanted to write on… read more
