  Descripción

  Hey Workawayers, at our primary home, myself, Manja (54), my sister Gisa (45) and my niece (2) live here yearlong. My daughter, Marijke (22) and my son, Malik (30) have left the nest already and are pursuing their goals elsewhere. I am teaching music and history at a highschool a few towns over and my sister is a physiotherapist in Oberhof, a town famous for Biathlon, which is a cross-country skiing winter sport that includes shooting at goals.

  Algo más...

  During your leisure time their is much to do. Hiking, biking and rollerblading are few of our favourite passtimes. Bikes can be provided. Our region features several castles and ruins (Hallenburg, Wilhelmsburg, Wartburg in Eisenach, etc.). For those interested in riding, there are several riding schools close by. The towns around are very sweet and scenic, well worthwhile a visit (e.g. Steinbach-Hallenberg, Schmalkalden, Eisenach, Erfurt, etc.). Schmalkalden is the next largest city and Erfurt is the capital city of the county. Especially in the summer, it is quite common to chill in/ by the outdoor pools common in Germany. As it it quite a rural area, public transport, in terms of busses, is very slow. However, trains are a good way to quickly get from A to B. We are also happy to give you a lift to places and show you about.
