  Description

  Hey there, we're a family of four, living on a small homestead. It is a very 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 family - so for this - we need some help.
  
  We are Lisa (36) and Bernhard (36) and we have two awakned boys (6 and 3 years), 2 lovely outdoor cats, a flock of chicken who are responsible for our compost system and a aquarium in the kidsroom. We are planning to add more animals to our family and want to create a multifunctional passiv solar greenhouse during the next year.
  
  We love to spend our rare free and family time in the nature/garden/wood around our homestead and in the beautiful Salzkammergut (-mountains) and on Lake Attersee on our small sailboat.
  In Spring there are a lot of chores to do in the forrest, with the fire wood and in the vegetable garden and with our animals. In summer it is a little bit more quiet so we have time to spend the hot days at our sailing boat on Lake Attersee or went cycling or hiking with our kids. In autumn hopley there is a rich vegetable and fruit harvest, here we want to make the harvest durable for the winter season.
  Winter is the time to plan for the next year and do a lot of things in and around the house and in the forrest and have fun in the snow with a lot of possibilities for wintersport.
  We try to incorporate our children as often as possible and as often they are motivated in our daily work around the house and homestead. So to be patient, (child)friendly and understandig when something doesn't work as planned or need a longer time is very important for us!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Lisa is the chief 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 chief of the house and forest. He is a really good homeworker and we make a lot of DIY projects. We have a big and fully equiped workshop.

  Aide

  We have a very big house, two young children, two cats, a flock of chicken, a big vegetable and fruit garden and a forrest for firewood , so there are a lot of tasks, which has to be done everyday to every year.
  
  Tasks which had to be done maily, are caring for animals, garden plants, house and apartment and work in the forest and with trees (feeding, watering, weeding, harvesting, cutting, cleaning, heating, building, playing, cooking, ...).
  Please give us a hand for that things, that everyone feels comfortable at our homestead.
  
  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.
  Projects which are planned in the future are a passiv solar greenhouse and a second chicken coop.
  Every human is different, so lets talk about the projects you are interested in.
  Normally we have a checklist for you, than you can work independent on the tasks of the checklist and also you can divide your day individually.
  
  We have two young children. We have to start our day early and we need to get ready for school, kindergarten and office work - in the morning we are always busy. So breakfast isn't possible to eat together, but it would be very helpful, when you overtake our garden, chicken and cat routine in the morning. Lisa and the kids normally come home around 13 o'clock. Then we will have a quick lunch and a little break, before we start in the afternoon. Here you have the chance to play with the kids while i'm doing some tasks in the house or in the garden.
  In the evening there is sometimes time to cook together and learn to cook and taste other meals, depends how tired the kids are, and which events we have on our kalender.
  
  We chose 15 hours a week required help, so with this we are just responsible for accomodation!
  But we also can make a 25 hour agreement, but you have to care and cook mainly for yourself. If you choose the 25 hours i'll go for grocery shopping with you at the beginning of your stay to fill up the storage and buy the grocerys you need. There are also a lot of greens and veggies in the garden and eggs from our chicken for your use.
  Our main working days on our homestead for us are friday afternoon, saturday and sometimes sunday afternoon and often after work.
  Your "free days" will be on days under the week.
  Let's talk about this in a call or after your arrival - we always found a solution that fits everybody 😊.

  Espace pour garer des vans

  We are also Hosts for an App called "Schau aufs Land". We provide three free places for mobile homes, campervans, caravans or tents. 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 frontdoor to find a toilet and a sink.
