Description
Hi, it's us! A pretty traditional family with two kids (11 and 13). We live in a very beautiful countryside with lots of vineyards, forests, small villages and lakes. My husband works long hours in IT, since two years from home. I also work from home as a writer. We renovated a house a couple of years ago - there are still some corners which need a little love and work. As much as we would love to have more animals, there are currently just one cat and two bunnies living with us.
We grow a big garden, lots of veggies, herbs and fruit. There is always bread to bake, meals to cook and harvest to preserve. This year we expand our garden and we need help with landscaping. There are plans for a new bunny house that needs to be built as well.
You can stay with us for one or two weeks and will be a part of our family. We speak English and a little French. Our kids (or rather us parents) would be glad to practice their newly gained language skills!
This experience should not be just work but an exchange of knowledge and culture.
You will have your own room plus bathroom. Plus lots of English books, a piano, guitar and craft supplies.
Our house is situated 20 minutes from Heilbronn, 1 1/2 hours from Frankfurt, 1 hour from Stuttgart and 2 hours from Nuremberg.
You will be working five days a week around 5 hours each day.Types of help and learning opportunities
