The Experience

Hello travelers! I 'm looking for a sociable good working volunteer who presents well, who helps in and around the house, who can learn from me, and me from him. As a gentleman living on his own, I'll prefer only one male volunteer at a time, open-minded and respectful of things and people. It is a non-smoking place. No drugs, no pets, no guests. Travel insurance required (for travellers outside of the EU especially).

The home was a wonderful host, very welcoming and interesting who made me feel at ease throughout my stay. There is so much to see and do around Zittau, I would highly recommend a stay with him and would happily return myself !

Zittau is a beautiful quiet little town. It is right on the border and there is a lot to do. Mike is the one you do most of the volunteer work with (some hard labor and few tasks). He also is very educated and nice. They are very flexible so you will have a lot of free time to use as you please, if you like nature and smaller towns - you will thoroughly enjoy it. the home, the main host, did make me feel uncomfortable with specific behavioral tendencies he showed. I suggest more communication is established between any future volunteers and host about the way of life he expects while staying.
