Description
Hi. I am a 55 year old, gay Australian school teacher here in north Brandenburg, connected by 15 minute bus to the trainline Stralsund-Berlin.
I've been here for 4 years developing my self-sufficiency small landholding (cottage-barn with orchards, permaculture woodlet, nut coppice, grazing animals, fowl, vegetable garden, flowers and edible hedges). With my friendly dog Max.
My village is small about 12 km from Prenzlau. I enjoyed wwoofing in Tasmania and have extra rooms for volunteering guests on my farmlet.
I speak German, English, bad Danish, some Spanish, worse French but I try. But! It's primitive here - bucket toilet for the compost, rainwater, and shower has to be connected. But electricity, internet, streetlights and recycling bins, town water.
Basically, I often need just another pair of hands with things like mulching, poles, ladders. If y're good at handwork, great! I live without a car. If you bring a dog, it can't be male, sorry. Mine won't like that. That's us. Jon
