Description
Hi everybody! We are Suzie and Julian with our son Theodor (2yo), a happy, positive and curious family from Germany. We love to travel, be adventurous, experience new things, meet interesting people... the list goes on and on!
The best thing about our Workaway experiences so far was the cultural exchange. We learned so much about different lifestyles and points of view. We love to share our culture and learn about yours - food, politics, history, traditions, society - tell us all about it!

We are both good at learning new skilss so we should be able to help you with a lot of stuff. Julian works as a secondary school teacher (History and Politics), is an author and basketball lover and licensed coach. Suzie is a Psychologist working as a mindfulness trainer. She is very creative and loves art projects. Also, she is good at painting, building furniture, basic gardening and vegan cooking/baking. She knows how to build and manage a website and has some good photography and graphic design skills! She has also done some videography and enjoys it a lot. And of course, she loves yoga, meditation, mindfulness and Asian philosophy. We both love cooking and baking and food in general. Suzie is vegan so we would prefer a host that respects that.

I am not exaggerating to say that Julian and Suzie were key to much of the progress and beautification of the Farm during their two stays of three weeks each.. They arrive with open hearts and many skills. Some of the projects here were garden oriented from seeding, weeding and mulching, but computer and art work resulting in signage, info sheets,… read more

Oh my, where do we begin. We didn't quite know what to expect before coming here and then it turned out to be a little island of paradise! The residents welcomed us like family from the first minute and we greatly enjoyed their company. Being part of their project and vision of a peaceful and sustainable future really inspired us. What we loved… read more

We appreciate the time they spent together with all of us, sharing many meaningful conversation and playing table and board games,… read more

We had the best time in Alor Setar with this non ordinary but certainly extraordinary family. Even though Alor Star is not the best town to do a lot of things we experienced so much in the time we stayed there. We learned tons about Chinese and Malay culture and we think we understand the world a bit better now. Food, politics, society,… read more

Suzie and Julien stayed with us for about a week. Although the stay was relatively short they both integrated into our family very well. They were both fun for our children and very helpful for us, and our dog loved them too!! They made the most of their time by exploring around and still had lots of energy to offer our family. We wish you well on… read more

We stayed with this family for a bit more than a week as they took us in very spontaneously. They are a lovely familiy and we couln't have asked for a better place to stay during our travels! We were welcomed warmly into the family and the work was fun. We played with Torin and Rowan, helped with the animals and housework and at the construction… read more

We had a beautiful time at Rita's & Edmundas' place in Sweden! We didn't meet Rita unfortunately because she was visiting her daughter but we stayed in contact throughout the whole visit.
The area of the property is beautiful and very quiet and peaceful - if you love nature it's perfect for you! Edmundas is very nice and caring and taught us… read more
