  Descripción

  We - Karen (Teacher, 40), Lilly (now 9) and I (Dirk-Entrepreneur, 43) are travellers and outdoor lovers - but were quite busy in our Jobs.
  So we decided to take a break in 2014 and went on a trip one-year around the world. To clear our minds.There we’ve been workawayers ourselfes in South Afrika and liked the way to meet people and learn.
  
  After we came back, we decided to have an own farm in the countryside - just to try. Here now, we are surrounded by rivers, lakes and a park-like landscape on the doorstep to popular Leipzig.
  
  We have animals (sheep, cats, chicken, cows next door), do gardening, renovate the 300 years old Farm. We like to bring people together. So there are also events like markets, BBQ’s, birthday parties and family celebrations on our farm.
  
  Beside that, we just got startet to set up adventuere camps specially for fathers and sons/doughters (see heldentage.net) So any help is appreciated.
  
  You will be intigrated into a very open minded family, if you like. As you can always have your pivacy. There is lots of room here.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We have seen the world, so there will be a lot to tell.
  You will learn things you may have never done before ..as we did as we came here. You'll learn a lot about how to use old things to create new things - upcycling and to fix anything out of nothing (Skills left from the old days of east Germany).
  And - how to survive as a Cityslicker running a farm:)
  
  You get introduced into the german way of life and language if wished.
