    Description

    We, this is Manfred and Sabine, founded our farm in 2012 and have now many different animals like horses, sheeps, lamas, camels, pigs, chicken, cats and dogs. We love animals and we love nature - this style of life helps us to escape from stressing daily life and mass consumption. We look for WorkAwayers to get into cultural exchange because we love to bring new people to our little paradise.

    We always need help around the farm, in keeping our small vegetable garden alive and keep our house clean.
    In your spare time, you can spend time with our animals. Our dogs like long walks and our cats love to be petted.

    The nearest village is Erlbach (2 km away). Towns like Neuötting, Burghausen, Eggenfelden and Braunau (Austria) are around 15 min away by car. Salzburg and Passau are in a 1 hour distance and Munich in a 1h30 distance.

    These workawayers will be satisfied at our place:
    - you love nature and to be away from big cities
    - you love to be with animals
    - you are independant and like to be on your own (not always, but from time to time)
    - you can work on your own, too
    - you see what needs to be done and like to reach something during the day
    - you want to get to know Bavarian culture and lifestyle.

    We prefer to have you at least 2 weeks with us. Couples are welcome!

You are quite free in spending your time, just for special tasks we need you at accurate times. You can spend the 5 hours work throughout the day, sometimes you can even do tours during the day.
