This is a single room on a working farm. I try to keep costs low. My vision is to help travelers see the world (spend money on experiences not lodging) and maybe experience a unique culture along the way.

Feel the wild of nature to stimulate your creativity. Also a nice relaxing area to get away.

A small chicken coop homes a free range flock. They will wander around your front yard. The farm also houses quail, bee hives, ducks, 3 cats, and 2 dogs. Ask if you want to meet them.

The space
RURAL
I am returning old farmland to nature. Enjoy wildflowers from April to October. Birds and deer year around. If there are edible berries in season, I will let you know and welcome you to help pick them!

PURPOSE
I work full time, but I love travel. This space is designed to help a traveler for a reasonable cost. I also love sustainability and sharing a little piece of wilderness in a safe spot.

MUSEUM
I try to upcycle and reuse as much as possible. So, I'm an artist creating many unique pieces which fill your cottage. Its a bit of a museum in itself. All the money made off this cottage is donated to help homeless people. Appliances are sometimes missing because I donate them to a person just getting a new place. I'm sorry for the constant construction for a good cause.

SLEEPING DETAILS
This house contains 1 bed in each room. There is floor space for more, let's discuss if you need extra. I charge $10/person over two because I will need to install the extra air mattress and linens.

TRAVELING
I tried AirBnB while travelling through Europe and loved a more local feel than hotels. I enjoy hiking and outdoors, but stop for food in cities. I generally arrive around 8pm. Sleep until 6am. Shower and leave by 8am. Carpe Diem!

HOSTING
Welcome! My love for travel morphed into love for sharing travel plans, ideas, and offering my own space to assist your travels! I've been to 40+ European countries (which its hard to even name that many off the top of your head!) and 50 States. Let me know if you have any questions!
