Descripción
- We have space from the 22.09. onwards until end of october for 2 people.
We prefer workaway with a stay of 2 or even better: 3 weeks of stay. -
About us
We are Anke (born 1974) and Olaf (born 1969). We care deeply about sustainable living, shared spaces and community-minded projects.
The place
Right now we are renovating our house and garden in Neu Zittau (near Berlin). We are living there as a family of three (our yongest kid still live with us – 15 years old) and we want to invite others such as workawayers to join us in our way of living from time to time.
Depending on your skills, interests, and the season, you can join us with:
- cleaning the house and garden
- helping with cooking and meals
- helping the garden to flourish, e.g., removing old bushes or unhealthy plants
- chopping and stacking firewood
You won`t be alone with your tasks - there is always someone to guide or help you with.
Olaf (and sometimes Anke as well) will be in Neu-Zittau during the week to work in the house or the garten. So you have companionship and guidances for all your questions.
Accommodation
You get our small garden house for yourself (small living space, small bathroom, sleeping at the attic).
Location & getting around
Neu Zittau is a quiet village near Erkner. The train station S Erkner is about 5 km away (approx. 20 minutes by bike or 10 minutes by bus). From Erkner you can reach Berlin Ostkreuz in ~15 minutes or Alexanderplatz in ~25 minutes by train.
We provide bikes for workawayers usage.
Cultural exchange
We love to get into contact with different people and their background through workaway. Sharing meals, having barbecue or sitting at the fire - those are moments we really appreciate.
Food / Cooking
We eat mostly vegetarian and are conscious about buying organic, local and seasonal food. We are part of a association where we get food every week from nearby farmers ("Social Farming").
We are familiar with glutenfree cooking and vegan cooking.
If you eat meat - that is okay as well, but probably you will not miss it ;-) -

We are developing the proberty and therefor tasks will vary over the next months. There is always something to do. We will show you around and you can decide what tasks matches with your interests and/or skills.
If you want to learn crafting / building - Olaf is an experienced craftsmen and you can learn a lot while assisting him in his projects. If you have some experience - the better!
If you can offer some works of art - to bring art to the proberty - that is very welcomed by us, too. -

She helped with picking grapes, weeding, cooking and window cleaning in the house. We highly recommend her to other places and hosts. It was a nice time having her with us.
