Description
We are a family of 2, me and my 13yr old son, plus 4 super cute bunnies in the garden and a couple of fish. Due to me being self employed, any school holiday is impossibly stressful. My son loves to read, play chess, watch TV and sometimes climbing. He is in puberty, so motivation to do anything is rare these days. We have a big house and a big garden, and we have far too many rooms now that I am a single mom again.
I do have a severe allergy for cats and dogs, so I can only accommodate you if you are not a per owner yourself. Funnily, I tested for bunnies and they are the only fur I am not allergic to.
Since I am enforcing a healthy lifestyle with my kid, this is a non smoking household and I have to be strict on that too, but any non-smokers are always welcome.
Apart from running my own marketing agency remotely, I am a personal fitness trainer and teach acrobatics and Aerial silk and dancing to kids in schools. My best friend is residing in Spain, our last guest from the Ukraine stayed for almost two years. Now the house is empty and there are so many things to do, which I can not do on my own.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
Our workaway unfortunately cancelled last minute. Open for someone any time now :)
We would need: Help tidying up the house and garden, help my kid with homework and motivate him to go outdoors e.g. ride a bike or play chess with him so he does not have to stick to his tablet. He is usually coming home in the afternoon and is fluent in English. Your work would be to spend time with him, so I am more flexible to work, especially during school holidays and sometimes on the weekend. We do have a car (electric/automatic). In my leisure time, I teach Pilates and Aerial silk at a local sports club, so cooking him something or spending time with him would be on the agenda on some days too. During summer, we grow our own veggies in the garden.Languages
Languages spoken
German: Fluent
English: Fluent
French: Intermediate
Spanish: BeginnerThis host offers a language exchange
Love to improve my French or Spanish, as well as learn a new language like Russian. My kid does only speak German and English, so on of these two is a must.Accommodation
You will have your own room with a twin bed (so we could accommodate a couple) and a shared bathroom with your own area for your things. We will share the other rooms upstairs and downstairs, including a sports area with a big mirror. The fridge and freezers are big enough to share with you. We do have a partially vegan diet, since I can not have any diary products (but my son does), so there is a mix of regular/vegan food in the house.
What else ...
Train station 10mins walk, private lake 10mins by bike, Vienna 40mins by train.
