Alptraum
onea place for digital nomads
(and friends)


A temporary Alpine flat-sharing community
From 2016 till 2018 I traveled through the Alpine region to make a dream come true.
The goal was to be able to live and work in nature.
Since May 2019 the "Alp-traum" has finally been a reality.
On my way, I have made many fantastic colleagues and friends who can work anywhere.
So why not share the cabin with you and have a good time in the mountains.
From 2020, visiting and living on "Alptraum" will be free.
For that you have to get involved:
...whether you want to program, write, lay out, cook, chop wood, knit, build a table
....we'll find something you can do.
best,
Gerrit

You have to be tough until April and November, because it's cold.
Simplicity
~A view of the mountains, self-realization, peace and LTE~
I can offer you.
Here you live and work in and with nature.
Here, luxury is, sitting by the fire until late at night,
to take a walk in the woods during the break,
to carve or to be alone.
You won't find cultural offers, parties or a spa here.
Workplace
There are 2 workstations in your rooms.
When the weather is good, you can also work in the "Stadlbüro".
There is space for 6 colleagues, electricity and WiFi.

Your room
~You live in the 2 rooms on the upper floor~
with separate entrance.
One room is a walk-through room.
The furniture is rustic.
You will find single beds, several cupboards, two tables / workplaces and WiFi.
~
We share the kitchen, bathroom and workshop.









Catering

When you arrive you will find plenty of regional products in the communal fridge.
There is always enough for your breakfast and snack.
As a warm meal there is always a soup or a stew on the fire.
If you want something "special", write me a shopping list or bring it with you.
If you need a change or want to do something good for others, you can cook yourself.
For the more refined cuisine, you will also find restaurants in the region.

if you are a vegetarian or vegan or have allergies, I will be happy to take this into account.
Please write me that in an email.







Location
~Alptraum is located in the "Naturpark Sölktäler".
The former hunting lodge stands alone in a meadow at the edge of the forest.
The closest neighbors are approx. 900 meters away.
Getting to "Alptraum"
~
If you travel by car, you end up driving on a 3 km long gravel road..
In winter you need four-wheel drive.
You'd better park for free at a train station or airport and I'll pick you up.
~
Would you prefer to travel by public transport,
I will be happy to pick you up at Stein an der Enns, Stainach-Irdning or Schladming train stations.
Ecology
~For a sustainable experience of nature.~
So that we can still experience Alptraum as it is in years to come,
I try to keep the impact on nature (ecological footprint) as low as possible.
- The hut is already supplied 100% with electricity from hydropower.
- The heating is CO2-neutral with wood.
- Most of what we eat and drink comes from local farmers or from the region.
- The tap water comes from its own source.
- The wastewater is treated in a biological treatment plant.
