Strawberry Feilds Forever

I have now been at my new home for 5 days! I can now better explain my surrondings and whats all going on in Dörndorf (the town I live in). I live on a farm where we sell ice cream, strawberries and raseberries. The family owns 3 starberry feilds and has 15 small flower feilds (where people can pick their own flowers). The strawberryfields are self picking aswell but we also sell some pre picked. We alway have lots of left-over starberries so this means we get to have lots of strawberry involved desserts! The best! Sonja (the mom) also uses the left over strawberries to make ice cream. She makes loads of other kinds aswell though and they are all very tasty.

I live and work for a family of 5 (Also living on the property are Sonjas parents and 2 farm boys) . Work consists of cleaning and doing dishes and helping Sonja with chores and errands. The work isnt hard but I know Sonja needs the help around the house and I am happy to do it.

I have a bike and a car at my disposal which is great! The car is a Very old Nissan Micra, and I get to drive on the Autobahn with it,( to get to church and to german lessons)... Well I can drive on the highway as soon as I learn to drive stick shift. I had my first driving lesson the other day and didnt stall! It took me a while to get used to switching gears manualy but I am slowly getting the hang of things. Thankfully we live in a small farm town so there are lots of old farm roads where I can practise and not worry about other cars.

today: german lesson, more german, sunflowers
