    Description

    We live in a house near the lake and the mountains. Our Workawayers enjoy the fresh air and local cuisine. There's plenty of time for hiking, cycling, and swimming! In the mornings, you'll be responsible for cleaning three guest rooms, hanging up laundry, and occasionally mopping the stairs and doing some light gardening. You'll stay in a guest room and share the breakfast kitchen with four guests. It's also your task to tidy the kitchen in the mornings after the rooms have been cleaned. We can sometimes cook and eat together, but I also give you the opportunity to cook independently and pay you by the hour. It's like a holiday with a bit of work. We have a very sweet Golden Retriever, but you must like dogs and not have any allergies. Come and join our team! We pay €13 per hour.


    Wir leben in einem Haus nahe am See und den Bergen. Unsere Workawayer genießen die gute Luft und heimische Verpflegung. Es bleibt viel Zeit zum Wandern, Radfahren und schwimmen! Vormittags liegt die Reinigung von 3 Gästezimmern an, das Aufhängen von Wäsche, und hin und wieder Stiegen wischen und leichte Gartenarbeit. Du wohnst in einem Gästezimmer und teilst die Frühstücksküche mit 4 Gästen. Es ist auch dein Job, diese Küche vormittags nach der Zimmer-Reinigung in Ordnung zu bringen. Wir können manchmal gemeinsam kochen und zusammen essen, ich lasse dir aber auch selbständig Möglichkeit zum kochen und bezahle für die Arbeit pro Stunde. Es ist wie Urlaub mit etwas Arbeit bei uns. Wir haben einen Golden Retriever Hund, der sehr lieb ist, du musst aber Hunde mögen und keine Allergie haben. Komm und verstärke unser Team! Wir zahlen für die Arbeit per Stunde 13.- Euro

    Help

    From March to May, we need help with light renovation work, such as painting, painting garden furniture, cleaning, tidying up, cleaning windows, deep cleaning, and possibly repairing fences— basically, general handyman tasks around the house. It would also be nice if you could sometimes sit the dog, but that's not the main task.
    From June to September, we are looking for help cleaning the guest rooms, 2-4 hours in the mornings, light gardening, and light housework. Gardening only needs to be done 1-2 times per week. Hourly wage for all tasks and hours worked: €13.

Stundenlohn 13.- Euro. Manchmal wäre es auch schön, wenn du den Hund sitten kannst, aber das ist nicht die Hauptaufgabe.
    Von Juni bis September suchen wir Hilfe für die Reinigung der Gästezimmer, vormittags 2 - 4 Stunden, leichte Gartenarbeiten, leichte Arbeiten rund um's Haus, Gartenarbeit fällt nur 1-2 Mal pro Woche an.
