    Description

    We are a veterinary family with three adult sons , and now two granddaughters 5 and 1,5 years. They all live nearby.
    For we are veterinarians , we are usually really busy, therefore we would be happy for some help in the house, with the work on our animals and in our garden and on the pastures. Currently the focus is mainly painting work in the house and outside.
    We are living in a small village 10 km near to Marburg, a lovely city with an historic centre. Marburg hast got the oldest protestant university in Germany with about 25 thousand students. Therefore the atmosphere in the city is very lively and multiculturell.

    We are an openminded family and we like the culturel exchange. We speak englisch, french, italian and know some spanish words.

    There will be the opportuniy to do sports like running, biking, riding and walking directly starting at our house, for we are living in a very rural area.
    We are a really active family and we like to have fun .
