Description
Hi everyone!
"a short notice in between" due to our project of the opening of the cultural café we are now hosting a workawayer from hungary who is 21 years and is very freindly and eager to help.
The idea is to invite one other workawayer to increase energy.... in any way.
but you will share the room.... if you don' mind - Patrik does not...
so welcome - if you feel like .... we love to host you....cheers!
---------------
Oh wow. Let's update Workaway. So many things has passed these years.
Before Corona we hosted Workawayers for about 10 years.
After Corona we quit everything and spend a year going around as a "Workaway-family" ourselves. Went to France, italy, Spain and Portugal. Great trip and it led us back to Germany.
And...
Started a new project somewhere else. Restoring an old house to build up a cafe for cultural activities, part of an association. Non profit.
So our café is opening up at the end of august 2024. Lots of thing to do. Beside raising our boys 9 and 12.
We could use some hands helping restoring the house and building up the stuff together.
If you feel like passing by: a big welcome.

beside language skills we really love to share the different views on life with each other. maybe we can play music together or chat about life and how crazy it is? ;-) the rural forrestial area here is very lovely for hiking. a big beautiful lake is like 20min busride away. the cities of Bonn or even Cologne are within reach, but takes some time to get there and have to switch bus and trains.
