  • Description

    Description

    We are a family of 3 seated deep in the Southern Alps of Austria. We live on a lovely and remote place, where nature still has a wild and pure touch.

    We dream of a future where co-operation overules competition, where every individual has the opportunity to become the greatest version of themselves and where creative expression is as important as the organic food we eat!

    Kerima and I (Dominik) work in Graz 3 days a week. The rest of the time, we host clients/guests in our mongolian yurt and work on the land. We have a chickens, sheep and a cat.

    We have lovely friends living nearby, who are also hosting workawyers. Our two places are closely connected and we sometimes work together on different projects.
    Warmly, Dominik, Kerima & Kenai

    At our place you can really get some headspace and get firmly rooted again! Kerima and I are open minded young people, always eager to get/give some fresh input from/to other souls.
    Kerima can teach you alot of interesting stuff about plant medicine, gardening, painting and holistic healing and Doka is a jack of all trades (bowshooting, building, pottery, hypnosis, climbing...)

    What else ...

    Although we live in the middle of nowhere, civilization is not so far away - Graz, 2nd largest city in Austria with many cultural highlights, is only 35 minutes by car and accessible by train and bus from here.

    If you like walking there are miles and miles of mountain forest in every direction.

    In summer you can jump into the nearby river or visit small lakes that are also close.
