Description
Hallo,
ich bin wahrscheinlich nicht der typische workawayer da ich im Rentenalter bin.
Trotzdem bin ich immer noch neugierig auf diese Welt und die Menschen, die in ihr leben.
Ich habe Lust mit Menschen, die sinnvolle Dinge für diese Welt tun, zusammen zu treffen und mit ihnen zu arbeiten.
Ich bin ruhig und gelassen, konnte ja auch schon einige Erfahrungen in meinem Leben sammeln.
Ich bin ein begeisteter Landwirt. Und zwar in Richtung Oekolandwirtschaft. Alles, was mit Natur und Landwirtschaft zu tun hat, interessiert mich. Landwirtschaft mache ich seit 50 Jahren. Ich hatte meine eigene Fleischrinderzucht und einen BIOLAND Gemüsebau.
Ich würde mir gerne noch verschiedene Regionen dieser Welt ansehen und dort mit Menschen zusammentreffen/leben.
Ich bin ein begeisteter Fotograf.Hauptsächlich in der Natur, Tier,Landschafts- und Makrofotografie.
Was mache ich wenn ich zu Hause bin?
Ich arbeite in einem Projekt, wo wir mit Kindergartenkindern einen Garten bewirtschaften.
Ich bin Bürgerwissenschaftler in einem AgroForst Projekt.
Am Wochenende schraube ich an einer alten Lokomotive von 1963.

I stayed 4 weeks at Miriams and Eriks place. They are great hosts. We, me and the other two workawayer were fully invoveld in the family live.
I liked my contact to the three kids.
We had many trips together. I was the first time in Berlin. There were wonderful bonfire evenings.
My duties were different and workable.
I can recommend the place.
