    Hallo,
    Lust auf Kost und Logie auf dem Lande mitten in einer üppigen Landschaft am Rand des Müritz Nationalpark in der Mecklenburger Seenlandschaft?
    Wir (2 Erwachsene mit drei Kindern (14J. 11J. und 9J) leben in einem kleinen Dorf in der Nähe von Waren an der Müritz (nächste Bahnstationen sind in Waren/Müritz oder Neustrelitz) und haben dort ein Grundstück, was wir seit 10 Jahren renaturieren und unser eigenes Gemüse anbauen. In unserem Dorf wohnen viele alternative, bunte Leute, wo es immer was neues zu entdecken gibt.

    Wir haben immer verschiedene Projekte und Arbeitsbereiche wie Bau eines Gartenhauses, Bau von Gartenbänken, Kompostklo,Draußendusche, Bewirtschaftung unseres Obst- und Gemüsegartens, weitere Bearbeitung unseres Weidenhauses, Bau eines Erdkellers, Platern mit Natursteinen (Kopfsteinpflaster), Vorbereitung eines weiteren Wohnwagens (Stellplatz vorbereiten und Wohnwagen fertig machen).

    Wer hat Lust mit uns für einige Wochen zusammen zu leben und eigenständig mitzuarbeiten und eigene Ideen umzusetzen, ist herzlich willkommen .
    Wir bieten einfache und saubere Unterkünfte in unserem Wohnwagen, oder auch mitgebrachten Zelten. Es gibt ein Kompostklo und eine Draußendusche soll noch entstehen. Einstweilen gibt es Wasserhähne auf dem Grundstück. Eine Waschmaschine zur freien Benutzung etc. Internet gibt es auch!
    Wir bieten gutes Essen (frisches BIO Gemüse aus dem Garten, Biologische Lebensmittel etc). Dann und wann koche ich auch gern für Alle.

    Freue mich über Anfragen!
    Andrea
