Description
Since midl of 2019 I became a couple account with Marina. She's a doctor in belarusian polyclinic for 7 years. Also she had an art education in paint school (9 years), medical education (6 years) and practice yoga more than 5 years also have riding skills. I have wide life experience - juristic education, work in police (2 years), jurist (7 years - commercial law) and know I'm exebition manager in one of the biggest belarusian holding ( 4 years).
We try to find as much friends over the world as we can that's why me (I've started in institute) and Mari have started travel over the world, learning and practice languages achieving new skills. I'm better in English, Mari better in German. Because we both have higher education we try progress our skills (language at first, entellectual and handy skills in the second). In Belarus we don't have enough foreigners with good English or German speaking and pronunciation (changes started only in 2019 year - it became 1 month free visa-period for EU-tourists).

Left by Workawayer () for host (Come and learn new skills ...)

So, in January, we have found information about this host on the workaway site. We were very intrigued that the host-master (Roy) introduced himself as a piano teacher and we decided to take a chance and come. That was our first experience as a couple-account. Unfortunately, photos of the host do not even remotely convey the wonderful conditions… read more in which we managed to live and work. They were excellent!!! In this host you will meet wonderful people and excellent living conditions: and a fireplace, and a huge aquarium with amazing fish, and very cute briefing-table! The perfect time to visit this host is spring and summer of course, if you like skiing - it's winter definitely. take into account is that in Host, as in most of Germany, there is no Central heating, so in winter time you need some time to warm your living room. Everything else: towels, bed linen, food will be provided by the host. Several times we were lucky even to hear private concerts played by Roy - they were improvisations and to our deepest regret, we are unlikely to hear them again, because we did not record them and we can not find them in Shazam (((. A pleasant discovery was that the son of Roy followed in his father's footsteps and also learned to play the piano and by the way very beautiful !! In the vicinity of Host there are excellent locations: the ancient church is visible from the window of Host, the river Rhine is 5 minutes away by bike, the second largest Park in Europe "Europe-Park" - 12-15 km from Host by bike , just a kilometer from Host there are fields where you can see hares and wild deer! It was wow-effect!
A pleasant addition were Roy's cosmopolitan views and the peaceful religious views of his wife, Lief. Russian-speaking community is located in the nearest city - Lahr, there are even a couple of Russian shops with Russian products... 😱 😱 I don't understand how they fight with Putin after all of this 😳 😂 😂 😂
We are also very lucky to meet new friends and neighbors in the host-house - the couple: Diana and Alexander - you will be very lucky if you can find common interests with them - Diana has unsurpassed culinary skills and a more delicious chocolate cake than I have eaten in my life before I have eaten there! And if you are interested in sports, you will be very lucky to train with Alexander - he is preparing for new half-marathons, so he is in excellent physical shape! Linus is another wonderful young neighbor who has excellent English - he can advise you a good book in both English and German, since there is a telephone box-library next to the house, which is equipped with a mini-library. If you are lucky enough to meet Raphael, you will be able to get acquainted with new trends of Deutsch pop music (and be careful - it seems that he hides from others that he is a German superman! because he can move fantastically heavy things alone!). And of course, Walid - if you are lucky enough to meet him, you will learn about the best places, the best offers in the area and the latest important events - he is wonderful inquisitive and erudite neighbor!
Work in the host was not difficult and Roy always went to meet our needs and we tried to help him with his ideas as best as we could. We have got perfect experience and only the most pleasant memories of this host and I hope that you will be as lucky as we are to work in this beautiful place!
