  • Description

    Description

    Our place is in a quiet location in Vienna, near the Old Danube, not far from the Lobau nature reserve as well as the Danube Island, yet also close to the Donauzentrum, a large shopping center. The house has character and is surrounded by a 600m² natural garden with trees – plenty of greenery, a treehouse, and enough space to relax outdoors. We also have a cuddly cat named Gandalf. Public transport connections are excellent; you can reach the center of Vienna in 20-30 minutes. Several bicycles are also available for exploring the surrounding area and the city.

    Since Martina has a chronic illness, we are looking for support with various everyday tasks.

    Michi, a professional woodworker, is often away on site.He likes to share his skills, if you are interested.

    We also operate a community bike (Grätzlrad), an electric cargo bike, which can be borrowed free of charge by anyone.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Vienna is a city full of history, art, and culture, and we want to share that with you. For us, hosting is not just about help around the house, but having you a great experience in this beautiful city.

    While we may not always have time to explore the city together, we’re happy to support you in discovering Vienna in your own way—whether that’s recommending places, sharing tips, or helping you find cultural events and experiences that suit your interests.

    At home, we enjoy spending time together through cooking, conversations, and daily life. We’re happy to share insights into Austrian culture, routines, and how life here really works beyond the typical tourist experience.

    At the same time, we’re very interested in learning from you - your culture, language, and perspective. We see hosting as a mutual exchange where both sides gain new ideas and experiences.

    We aim to create a relaxed and open atmosphere where cultural exchange happens naturally through shared everyday moments.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    There is no free parking spot in front of our house. There is space to park but the charge is 3,40€ /hour in Vienna from 9:00 to 22:00. We don’t have parking spot on our property. Best solution would be to park the car outside of Vienna
