  Description

  We are a family of 8 - grandparents (Torsten/64 und Manu/63), parents (Hinnak/37 und Luise/34) and the children (Klara/11, Erna/9, Oskar/7, Lore/3), living together in a big house with a garden.
  
  As a world schooling family, we are educating the children while traveling through Europe (we did this for the past 2 years). From time to time, we like to spend time at our home base in Germany.
  
  Our village is located near Hamburg, not far away from the river Elbe and from the North Sea, surrounded by fields and small forests.
  
  We like to live together, we like to eat together, we like to laugh together, we like to work together... and we are looking for someone to share this life for a while with us.
  
  The main project we need help with is the household, the garden and activities with the children (cooking/ baking/ playing/ educational projects like e.g. learning new languages).
  
  We are looking forward to meet you!
