Descrição
I am an open-minded, 68-year-old man.
Now I am retired after an interesting career as a carpenter (I trained as one), truck driver, lumberjack, gardener, and lab technician.
I live with my wife in our own house in Reutlingen (20 km from Stuttgart, Germany).
I renovated most of our house by myself in 2006.
I have been married to Marion (62 years old) since 1981.
Our daughter Leah (27) has just completed her studies.
I absolutely love traveling and meeting other open-minded people.
The languages I speak:
German, English, French, and Spanish (conversational level).
Paris is my favorite city—and also my favorite Workaway project site.
Fit, healthy, and always curious, I want to celebrate the best time of my life: my retirement !

He was the perfect motorsaw and woodman and came to us at the right time.
He cleaned up the whole garden from old dry brunches and cut them to firewood.
He also cut down a dead very huge palmtree.
My firepile was never so beautiful.
He was always in time and worked often longer to finish his jobs.
Thanks a lot… read more

My job was primarily garden and firewood work, while Marion was cleaning the interior house section.
We had great fun together and Sabine offered us every working day a delicious meal… read more

As a volunteer he was exceptional.
His prowess, knowledge, and use of a Chainsaw were brilliant.
His work ethic and stamina need to be seen. Certainly when you consider his advancing years. (Hu hum!) Ha HA
Well Done Uwe, you are a treasure to have as a Volunteer Workaway.

Further on I did cut down some square meters of brambles… read more
