  Descripción

  Hey there, we're a family of four, living on a small homestead. It is a big house, with two apartment parties - where there is always something to do.
  We are planning to create our homestead after permacultural standards and will learn to self cater us and our guests - so for this - we need some help.
  
  We are Lisa (34) and Bernhard (34) and we have two awakned boys (5 and 2 years) and 1 proud rooster, 3 lovely outdoor cats and 12 diligent chickens. We are planning to add more animals to our family - the next project will be creating a safe stable for running ducks.
  
  We love to spend our free and family time in the nature/garden/wood around our homestead and in the beautiful Salzkammergut (Mountains).
  In Spring there are a lot of chores to do in the forest and in the vegetable garden. In Summer it is a little bit more quiet so we have time to spend the hot days at our sailing boat on the Attersee or went cycling or hiking with our kids. In autuum hopley there is a rich vegetable and fruit harvest.
  Winter is the time to plan for the next year and do a lot of things in and around the house. And to have fun in the snow with a lot of possibilities for wintersport.
  We try to incoporate our children as often as possible and as often they are motivated in our daily work around the house.

  Lisa is the chef of the garden and the kitchen. I like to cook - so i can learn you how to make "Kaiserschmarrn, Strudel or Knödel". In Summer and Autumm we make the harvest durable for the winter. I know a lot of things about our beautiful nature - especially wildherbs are my favourites.
  Bernhard is the chef of the house and the wood. He is a really good homeworker and we made a lot of DIY projects. We have a big and fully equiped carpentry.

  Ayuda

  ***Currently we are looking for volunteers who can come to our place immediatly, because we are in progress to dig and build a POLYTUNNEL for warmloving vegetables. A lot of other tasks had to be done around the house and garden, weeding and mulching some paths with wood chips, preaparing a part of the garden for the pumpkin field and make a new campfire place****
  
  We have a very big house and two small children, so there are a lot of routine tasks, which has to be done everyday. Care for children, feeding animals (fresh water und gains) care for the garden and plants (watering), care for the house (heat up the oven with wood for the heating or the hot water, cooking, cleaning,....), VENTILATE all windows very day (because we sadly have problems with mold)!
  Please give us a hand for that things, that our and your household is working. The special focus is here on the ground apartment, which you should keep clean and orderly!
  We also want to renovate the bathroom at the ground floor to offer coming guests a nicer and more modern design (Summer project)
  
  We also want to make our homestead bigger and time by time add some new
  things to our garden and homestead, so here help in the garden and around the house is required.
  Every human is different, so lets talk about the tasks and projects you are interested in.
  Normally we have a checklist for you, than you can work independent.
  Help is required for 15h a week, but you can also help for 25h. With 15h we are just responsible for accomodation. With 25h we are responsible for full catering. We decided to make a mix, so on "required working days" we are together responsible for the meals. Normally breakfast everybody prepare and eat by theirself, (there is a big storage in the Apartment downstairs and you can let me know what you need) also with dinner you have to be flexible with us, because here we look, that the children get something to eat before they get too tired. But i think we will find a way that fits everybody! And we are no Vegetarians.

  Alojamiento

  We can provide a whole apartment in our big house. We live at the first floor and you and your familiy/partner/friends etc. can stay at the ground floor with a fully equiped kitchen with a table for 6 persons, a small eating/living room with a bench and a big table for 8 persons+, an extra toilet and bathroom with a shower, a bath tube and separated washing Maschine. You stay in the big living room, where we added a double bed - in this living room, there is also a table, a couch and couchtable and enough space to add stackable beds for more people to sleep in. There is also a double bedroom and second small single bedroom/storage room in this apartment which are given to our Au Pair (single bedroom) and sometimes rented (double bedroom). We renovated the kitchen and the double bedroom. The bathroom and the other rooms were equiped with older furniture, but we try to keep them clean and orderly. Mabye there can sleep and life up to eigth pepole at our ground apartment.
  You have to share the apartment with our Au Pair, who stays in the single bedroom and with our guests, so its really important that you are able to keep the kitchen, toilet and bathroom clean and orderly!
  It's also important to save water, because of our own water well - you will find tips for saving water in the bathroom.
  
  We have two small children. They wake up early, its loud in the morning, and we need to become ready for Kindergarten and Work. So breakfast isn't possible to eat together. For lunch and in the evening there is sometimes time to cook together and learn to cook and taste other meals. It depends a little bit on if the children have a good or bad day. It's important for us to keep their privacy and listen to their needs.
  With eating you have to be very flexible with us, because when the children are hungry of course we give them food. Every day is different. - Lets talk and see what everybody needs.

  Algo más...

  Our homestead is located between the Attersee and Traunsee. At the "gate to the Salzkammergut". This region is known for the beautiful mountains and lakes. Also famous places like Hallstatt or Salzburg are close.
  You can reach a bus station (Rutzenmoos Hinterbuch B145) maybe in 1,2km. Very hour there are buses to Gmunden or Vöcklabruck. Here you can change to train.
  On the same way to the bus station there is a gas station, were you can buy around the clock grocerys.
  Sometimes its possible to share our bikes with you - so you can reach the beautiful places in a shorter time.
  We're sure that everybody will find a occupation in our beautiful region. From A(ttersee) to Z(oo) everything is possible. Just talk to us we can give you insider tipps. If you are interested in hiking - Lisa nearly climbed every mountain in the Salzkammergut :-).

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  Sometimes we are also traveling with our campervan. So we like to welcome guests with campervans or mobile homes. The best place to park is the flat gravel parking spot located on the north side/ front side our house. In Summer it will be shady und cool. Our guests can use the backdoor to find a toilett and a sink. Two vans or one Mobile home can park on the spot.
