Description
Hi Workawayer,
we’re happy about any kind of support – whether it’s cooking, doing crafts, cleaning, or helping with creative projects like archery videos. There’s always something to do, and every helping hand is welcome.
We believe the world becomes a little better when people have a good time together and share a positive view of humanity. That’s exactly what we try to do here: We live and work together on projects that are fun and meaningful – for example, in social work or inclusive programs.
What exactly you’ll be doing depends on your skills and interests – and of course, we’ll talk everything through beforehand. What matters to us is open, honest interaction and the willingness to support each other.
If you’d like to be part of it, feel free to get in touch!
Best wishes and see you soon!
Marco

Hallo Workawayer,
wir freuen uns über jede Unterstützung – ob beim Kochen, Handwerken, Putzen oder bei kreativen Projekten wie zum Beispiel Videos rund ums Bogenschießen. Es gibt immer etwas zu tun, und jede Hilfe ist willkommen.
Wir glauben, dass die Welt ein bisschen besser wird, wenn man miteinander eine gute Zeit hat und ein positives Menschenbild teilt. Genau das versuchen wir hier: Wir leben und arbeiten gemeinsam an Projekten, die Spaß machen und gleichzeitig Sinn stiften – zum Beispiel auch in der sozialen Arbeit oder bei inklusiven Angeboten.
Was genau du machst, hängt von deinen Fähigkeiten und Interessen ab – und natürlich sprechen wir alles vorher ab. Wichtig ist uns ein offenes, ehrliches Miteinander und der Wunsch, sich gegenseitig zu unterstützen.
Wenn du Lust hast, Teil davon zu sein, melde dich gerne bei uns!
Liebe Grüße und bis bald!
Marco

There were some misunderstandings due to my lack of knowledge of the language, but there were also really pleasant moments like archery, music and the air of relaxation that you breathed at home. Unfortunately there was almost no chance to talk about our passions or past life experience. I hope in the future to meet and discuss our interests.

I stayed with Marco for a week after a few insane weeks jumping around from place to place on my travels. I helped with some things in the yard, and went for a few long runs along the beautiful countryside. Its a good workaway experience for some down time and also Marco has great insight into living peacefully.
