  After the turn from GDR to FRG in 1990 some families from West Germany have settled down in this village, mostly looking for living in nature and more natural life - and silence. Here are living local people together with people from Berlin, Hamburg, Dortmund, Dresden, Netherland and Austria, like a social patchwork.

  Aide

  Workaway volunteers have been visiting us since 2018, supporting us and the place, and helping to make it more beautiful. We are delighted to see how the place and how we self have changed, also because of the many different volunteers influence from Germany, Denmark, Italy, France, Catalonia, Brazil, Swiss, Japan, Belgium, Spain.
  
  Living together with most of the volunteers was wonderfully fruitful, but unfortunately there were also experiences that were less good. Thank God it was only the minority. People's chemistry is different.
  But after all the experience of these years, we would like to get to know more of you.
  
  So we like to go on to have another workaway year - we invite helping hands for little renovation work in and around the house and more work in the garden and care with our animals.
  
  Our terrain need more fences, built with hedges, graze, wood and stone, a new duckshed and some help to develop permaculture in the fruit and vegetable garden.
  
  Before we came here, we traveled in Asia for 3 years, then our desire to travel was more or less satisfied and the call for a port became our next clear goal. So, here we are and if you enjoy our lifestyle, contact us.
