Description
We live on a farm in the northeast of Germany near the Mecklenburgische Seenplatte, between Hamburg and Berlin. We walk new old paths, combining old and new in a creative way. We are busy building a Hobbit camp for guests, where we need a helping hand with . As our farm is two hundred years old, it needs a lot of care and renovations, and Living a natural lifestyle means lots of work in the garden and stables. We love meeting people to exchange stories and input, that is why we enjoy having young input. We are Caren, Lilo and Uwe. You will have a three bed room with the"luxuries" of an old farmhouse. Loo and rainwater shower outside in summer. Hot bathhouse in winter. Bathing once a week! You will have to enjoy nature as this is what we have to offer! Next bus stop 2km away. Next station Wittstock 16km away. If you look for that special place that will reconnect you with yourself, this is the place. Lots to see and visit by bicycle in a range of 25km. We look forward meeting you! Electricity only available in the evening hours for heating and charging batteries.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You can learn all about living a natural and creative life style. Wild herbs, cooking and baking with fire, gardening with the help of nature itself. Learn how to build your hut with the means of what nature or the left overs of an old farm give you. WLAN in certain parts of farm very good, as we found. Indoors due to clay walls not too good. But excellent in woodhouse or outdoors.
Help
Winter means woodwork! To build, you need wood, this needs to dry. So we need strong arms in winter to assist!!
