    Description

    I live in a small village about 1 hour west of Berlin in a beautiful natural location close to forest, lakes, river Havel... I have 2 lovely and open kids (9, 11 yo) who stay here every other week for one week. Our house is on quite a huge land/garden where I am starting a little seminar venue on anti-discrimination, anti-racism and self-& collective care and soon also a decolonial permaculture project.
    I am 40, white, male, prefer no pronouns, speak English, French and German and work as a trainer and consultant on anti-racism

    COVID19 note: I believe Covid exists and am careful with contacts. If you think Covid is only a conspiracy, don't come... However I am still open to host people during Covid times!!!

    We have a separate small house which was used to store things of the people who lived here before us. Mostly old GDR stuff. We want to refurbish this house, but it has to be emptied first, which would be the main task for the next weeks. However there are always also other things to to in the garden, with the sheep and chicken and things in our own house

    We have one nice separate room where a person/couple/family could stay.
    We usually cook together with people who stay with us, but you are also free to cook for yourself of course. We are vegetarians, have organic food delivered to our house and like good food. I don't drink alcohol/do drugs and would appreciate if you don't either during the time with us
