Description
Come to the eastern part of Germany and join our life. Please read our profile in detail and check our calendar first before you send us a message.
We are a family of 3: Kerstin (57), Carsten (57) and Christopher (30). We live in a village on an estate that was a farm in the past. The village is situated 60 km from Dresden, 100 km from Leipzig and 170 km from Berlin in a national park.
We invite you into our home and accept you as part of our family. We do our best to make you feel at home and appreciate any additional assistance. If you join us it will be fun, promise. Our place is for genuine travelers who want to learn more about Germany and experience staying with an East German family. It is not for those looking just for food and accommodation.
Much help is needed in and around the house and volunteers are welcome. Your tasks would include cleaning, assisting in the garden, watering the plants, etc. We are flexible with chores and there is always a bit of give and take. We always try to be fair and reasonable and expect the same in return.
It is essential that you like cats as there will be times when you will need to feed and take care of the cats.
We offer our hospitality and invite you to join our life. You can learn German and live like a German, travel around in the area and enjoy the beautiful countryside and lovely places. We integrate you into our life and are happy to show the history and culture of the surrounding castles, towns and villages.
Minimum stay 4 weeks, average stay is 6 weeks, long term possible (after a trial period).
Volunteering hours are flexible, 5 hours per day, 5 days per week. We expect active, responsible, motivated, respectful and reliable guests, who also "see" the jobs that have to be done and work on their own initiative and who can say thank you. If you do not like talking and socializing, if you cannot accept rules, schedules and punctuality, our house is the wrong place. When in China, do as the Chinese do, when in Portugal, do as the Portuguese do, when in Germany, do as the Germans do. We are very organized and like a clean and nice home.
Being a member of different platforms we had many helpers, all different personalities. But I get many requests that are very simple and impersonal. And helpers demand more than we can offer (like visa, pay, paying travel etc). Before applying please make sure you have read our profile in detail. We don't answer general requests, that are sent to many hosts. We appreciate personal messages, so tell us, why you have chosen our family to be your future host.
We share our daily meals and food with you, but we are not ready to change our diet and our meal plan and adopt it to very special needs. There is a German saying: You eat what is on the table. All our helpers so far were happy with that.
You live in our office & guest room. Non-smokers only. No drugs. You have internet access (for moderate use).
If you
- are sociable, active, communicative
- don't smoke
- are organized and willing to accept our way of life and our schedule and rules
- like cats
- are not just looking for a bed and food
- can also enjoy a calm village life
then our family could be the right place for you.
You have to like cats and have no cat allergy. Non-smokers only. No drugs. You need your own health insurance and visa.
Long-term possible, too. Couples and friends welcome.
We do our best to make your stay with us a memory. But keep in mind that we are also working and run our businesses and we are not responsible for a 24/7 entertainment. You should be able to be on your own and organize your freetime too.
Feel free to contact us for further information. Please mention "Explore the east" in your initial message.
Hope to see you soon in Germany.
Kerstin, Carsten and Christopher

It was sooooo good to have Jamie and Brad in our house for some weeks, we miss their company a lot. Excellent work and social abilities, great humour and always so well organised. We were sad that Jamie and Brad had to leave. Come back any time!!! All the best for you!
