Descrição
We live in a beautiful old renovated house surrounded by approx. 5000 square metres of fantastic garden, pasture and orchard with big beautiful trees. There are ten of us 😁: us, 2 children (11/13), 3 cats and 3 sheep. We live away from the hustle and bustle in a small village in the countryside, 5 minutes from the Baltic Sea by car/15 minutes by bike, which you can borrow, not far from the Camino circular route. You can take wonderful walks on natural beaches or swim, cycle past horses, Galloway cattle and small churches on small country roads and simply relax, because it is quiet and idyllic here, pure nature and country life. The North Sea is 1 hour away by car (Rømø) as is the German town Flensburg and you can also go on relaxing day trips, e.g. to the small island of Årø from the small harbour in Årøsund, not far from here. Bus stop 5 minutes away, half an hour by bus to Haderslev, a quarter of an hour by car. There are a lot of second hand shops around, we can take you there. Nearest airport: Billund. Nearest train station: Vojens. There are many different bus routes from Haderslev, e.g. an Flixbus to Copenhagen or Flensburg/Germany.
We have moved to Denmark (from Germany) 3 years ago, because we fell in love with our charming house, the area, better schools and the less stressful way of living in our little village close to nature. But we could really do with some help now, as those were exciting and demanding years at the same time....and an old house and garden are always full of surprises. As the house has greedily eaten up our resources we could use some help to complete more tasks and fulfil dreams especially in the beautiful garden. I try to establish an organic vegetable garden, with varying success. 😉 I‘d love to have a greenhouse and the sheep need fences…We keep them as pets and malfunctioning lawnmowers 😂 and they are a great joy, bringing life back into the village, people think they are “hyggeligt“. 😍 But they are a lot of work without permanent fencing. Paint is needed in several places, brick foundations for the greenhouse and veranda would be a dream come true. So there are many different tasks, depending on what you do best, it won’t get boring.
The tasks do not involve looking after the kids, as I am at home. But of course you are welcome to spend quality time with us if you want to, e.g. we enjoy card and board games. We have already hosted 15 people, seven with workaway, and it was a great pleasure to get to know different people from many different countries.
We also have a space for a camper van.

Ajuda
We expect 4 hrs a day/ 2 days off per full week -or 3 hours only, if the work is physically very demanding.
In the end of April-May the kitchen garden takes centre stage.
In summer we are looking for people who are skilled in handicrafts (carpentry, bricklaying-e.g. a low wall for a greenhouse....), or who can put up permanent fencing for the sheep. Windows also need painting. A greenhouse needs to be assembled. Time to get hay and to stack firewood… repairing little damages at the sheep’s little houses. A wooden potting bench wants to be repaired and painted. ....
When it's raining and we can't work outside, there can be small repair tasks done inside the house or outbuilding or maybe some painting indoors, e.g. painting a small room and a little cellar with chalk paint. If you don't mind cleaning or other household chores, that would also be an alternative. There is always something to do in a big house. But we will talk about it beforehand.
In late summer and autumn we harvest and process apples , berries, plums, pears, grapes, walnuts, sweet chestnuts and watch the birds eating our cherries 😁.....and need help with all the leaves , there is always something to do in the garden.
We would like to take turns cooking, but only if you are happy to. Everyone helps to clean up after, which is not part of your work hours, as is only part of the cooking since you are eating it yourself too.Idiomas

We offer a nice clean room (with double bed) with a view of the garden and share our meals with you incl. one warm meal/day, but we don’t have the time to shop special foods or make extra dishes e.g. vegan, halal meat. (vegetarian is ok- but only if you take over most of the cooking). We use organic meat for cooking, e.g. from the Galloway cattle farm nearby, who have grazed on the meadows around our village and in the coastal and bird protection area on the Baltic Sea.
We don't expect you to eat every meal together with us, e.g. we don't manage breakfast and every lunch together on weekdays.
An extra bed for a child is possible, we can only accommodate two adults if they are happy to share the double bed. You are welcome to use the large kitchen and our 2 bathrooms.. We expect you to clean up after yourself, but of course not the whole house.Algo mais...
No smoking in or directly next to the house, no parties or extra guests, no drugs, bad language and excessive drinking, as children live here.

There is a small desk in your room. We have super internet connection, free of charge. As we are flexible regarding the hours that you help, you can plan most days to your needs (a little depending on the weather and if it’s a task done together with me or independently, but it’s all negotiable).
