  Descripción

  We own and run a company in sustainability practices to be applied to living spaces. We are a small but very creative company; I and my son James who is studying architecture at NUST and 2 permanent employees. Some example of our creations are furniture made of recycled material such as wooden palettes or wire drums and alien wood. The employees also look after the property as living off grid on a farm always implies things to do.
  The opff-grid estate is located on a game farm 15 km North of Windhoek. We have 11 giraffes and a lot of game including springboks, impalas, elans, wildebeeste, hartebeeste, zebras, jackals & warthogs who often come to drink at the waterholes next to our house. It is a privilege to live in such a beautiful place and so close to the city.
  Workaway people will certainly enjoy the peacefulness of the place and learn from living in a multilingual environment. Granny (Belgian) who is 93 and in very good shape also lives on the estate in her studio. She only speaks French as we do too. Our common language is English and my partner Roberta (Brazilian) is currently helping me to learn Spanish. The staff speak English and their native language.
  Workaway people will learn a lot of useful skills with us and sometimes when Roberta & I are away, they will look after granny and our 2 GS-wolf dogs.
  
  Accommodation will be in a big tent that we erect in the garden near a shaded outdoor kitchen or in the guest room of the main house depending who is around the property.
  Depending on the responsibility and amount of work the workaway people want to contribute, we will offer food and even some basic wages.
