Description
Me and my two flat mates (Janina and Lukas) are very active hosts, especially on Couchsurfing and other websites and we also just host a lot of friends. Because of this, my place basically became a hostel, but for free. Check out our community page - ask us for more info!
The idea of our place is to give a home to anyone in need (usually for a few days) and just to make people feel comfortable and safe, which is very difficult when you're traveling.
Usually you can stay longer, it depends on how you get along with the flat mates, just ask...Types of help and learning opportunities
Charity WorkArt ProjectsLanguage practiceTeachingDIY and building projectsCreating/ Cooking family mealsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceHelp with Computers/ InternetCultural exchange and learning opportunities
Like I wrote, many people stay at our place and you will meet a lot of people from all over the place!
Help
It has become difficult to manage my place alone, I need someone who likes meeting people and being around people so that they can show the guests around the house, explain what is allowed and what is not allowed, also change and wash the sheets and maybe even coordinate arrivals. You could also be creative and make some nice videos of the place or just fix some stuff which is broken in the apartment which would help everyone. I will not ask much for your help but I will appreciate it a lot if you will actively try to find things to do to help, things that you like doing anyway, maybe you like cooking for everyone, maybe you like showing people around the house or maybe you like to fix something technical, whatever you like!

Before going, we made a video call for alignment and he soon explained how it works for my arrival. There is always someone in the house, so when Chagai is not there, just see who can meet you in the group at the time you arrive. Everything is very organized. There is a link to a community so you can do… read more

I helped them for 5 nights by having a lot of fun. Literally, it wasn't workaway. I 'just' ironed few sheets, sorted very interesting old coins, cleaned sheds and garage, scanned old pictures, and had fun with nice people!
