Descrição
Please only apply if you're okay with cleaning + gardening + cats + dog + kids
Minimum stay 4 weeks, longterm stay is possible.
- - - - - - - - -
We are a family of four: two adults, two kids (boys aged 11 and 13). Plus two cats and a dog.
... and plus you, while you stay with us!
Our schedule is busy ... another helping hand is always needed in our house!
We are not the average German family. We are a laid back religion-free Pastafari-Metal-Punk-Hippie-OffRoad family and we like it just that way!
Meeting people from all around the world is something we really enjoy. Since we can't travel as much as we would like, we like inviting a tiny bit of the world into our house. :-)
Since 2016 we have hosted 35 guests from half as many countries. Some have stayed longterm (~ 1 year).

Ajuda
During normal working days, between 8 and 3, we are mostly in school or at work. In the afternoons the house is busy and crazy and the kids will love to play with you!
We need general help in everyday life.
Firstly, laundry and cleaning! But also: Gardening, lawn mowing, cooking, playing soccer or hide-and-seek with the boys ... just be a part of the herd.
You should be open minded & hearted, kind, reliable, motivated to work, able to organize yourself, also you should not be too prude and have a good sense of humor! We love to laugh and have fun!

Your daily tasks:
- keep the kitchen clean and tidy
- spot clean where needed and tidy up a bit
- do laundry - wash, hang to dry, fold
Your weekly tasks:
- clean bathrooms and toilets
- wash floors
When needed:
- help in the Garden - remove weeds, lawn mowing, etc
- play with the kids

You will need only 2-3 hours per day of you organize yourself well. Double the time of you take things slow.

What a wonderful person. Smart, relaxed, intelligent, helpful ... does bake crazy cakes that look like a brick and give you a sugar shock. He is great with kids and cats. He was also a great help in our local shop. Definitely a superhero!
Thank you for staying with us, Ross! We miss you! Hope to meet again!
It was Nonos first time to do WorkAway, and we are happy that she chose to come to our house! It was a pleasure having her with us! The kids instantly loved her. It was great to learn a little bit about Japanese culture and habits! Communication was good, as Nono's English is well enough to have a proper… read more
Oscar stayed with us for a whole month. The first days he was really quiet, but he integrated himself quickly into our household. The kids adored him instantly. He was extremely patient with the kids, he played a lot with them, and also cooked a lot with them, which is always a challenge (but yummy)!… read more

We were so happy to have her with us! She amazing, and not only the kids miss her. She is a reliable and hard worker, and despite her young age a centered and thoughtful and also really fun person.
Good luck with your travels! :-)
In your house I really feel like at home, I feel like I am at friends' house and not at a simple host's one.
So, thank you from the bottom of my heart. <3
Not only the kids missed her after she left! They really liked her fun spirit, as she played with them a lot. For us adults she was a perfect support and an interesting person to… read more
First I want to thank you for everything and all the happiness. I can’t believe that how fast the time passed. I really don’t want to leave here. Just like what I said, “This is not a workaway, this is a home”. Everyone is so nice and so friendly! Thank you all for welcoming me to your house. And… read more
Eventually we had to give him a sock and set him free again ;-) ... but he will always be welcome to our house!
We really enjoyed our stay at Steffi&Mike's home. It's just the kind of workaway we like the most: our objectives were made clear, but we never felt pressured in any way. The whole family is super friendly, helpful and relaxed (except for the… read more
