We are a married couple and love to combine travelling and working from abroad. Since ca. 15 years we are passionate members of the homeexchange organisation "Homelink" and experienced already about 20+ international home exchanges which have all been very successful for both sides :-)
We are also experienced homesitters. Just ask us for our references for homeexchange and homesitting with animal-care and garden care.
We did many homeexchanges with our son, but as he is grown up (22) now, he moved out. Therefore we are more flexible now as we do not depend on school holidays anymore.
In our leisure time Christoph loves reading, good music while I love Yoga, I am studying Ayurveda. We both like meeting people, family, discovering new places, hiking, cooking, sustainable living ideas.
Sometimes our son and his girlfriend or our parents will travel with us but usually we will travel just the 2 of us.
