Descrição
As a family with 5 children, 25, 23, 21, 16 and 12. The youngest three of them are still living with us.We bought a farm with stable and garden in the summer of 2022 and live here with horses, a dog, cats and soon chickens. I work as a social worker employed by an association with visually impaired children.
With my horses, I am moderately oriented towards natural horsemanship. I have further training in " horse supportet coaching ". My vision is to offer this work independently in a year or two when we have gotten a little further along with our renovation projects, until then I occasionally offer this on a donation basis to get the costs for the horses.
We have some renovation projects planned for this year. We are only do small DIY tasks alongside by ourselves. We have local paid tradespeople for the larger renovations .
We are happy about support in the house, with the horses and in the garden. It's often turbulent and lively here, but there are also plenty of places to retreat inside and outside. In the evening we like to eat together and exchange ideas, my husband is retired and an artist. He paints when time permits and likes to cook well. (Some of us are vegetarians).
The house is a non-smoking area :)
Fritzlar, a beautiful medieval town, is only two kilometers away from us and can be easily reached by bus or bicycle, there are nice cultural events, a cinema and a public swimming pool. In the summer we often go together to relax at one of the nearby lakes.
You are cordially invited to live on our farm, to enjoy the beautiful side of country life, to chill in the hammock with the horses in the garden or go with them for a walk, to help us with our projects and to learn new things together.

We and our children have traveled a lot and are happy to have international guests. Our 20-year-old daughter herself is in Greece via work away until the end of June.
Our 25-year-old son is a keen climber, runner and swimmer and is happy to be accompanied during sporting activities.
If you are interested, I would be happy to share my knowledge of horse work in Natural Horsemanship.
Horseback riding is usually not one of them.Projetos que envolvem crianças
