Description
Since living on a farm, when I travel I like to look for opportunities to learn and gain more experience in practical fields. Sharing solutions for better life, take ideas and solutions with me and leave some behind.
My farm is in the early set-ups and got 2 great guys helping me, we take care of sheep, chickens, turkeys and the gardens; in the summer we host Camphill Village's cows as we have lots of grass to share, they \also hay our fields for their cows and our sheep during the winter a
Now in the winter I get to travel to exchange ideas and learn from different cultures, as our farm manager takes care of our animals and works on projects with his wife and 3 kids, these kids get an early start on learning life on the farm, like if former times before we learnt most from computers or in class rooms.Interests

Nice guesthouse concept, energetic young owner with very good English.
Yuri showed me around historic fishing town, and i explored with her bicycle. Also i was able to help with guesthouse set-up, as in past I had a guesthouse in Thailand myself.
Werner hope you had good trip, and you returned safely from Middle East art exchange project.
