The experience

Recently, we realised that, in addition to traditional tasks in the garden or around the house, we would appreciate a sports-focused instructor (just for us or other volunteers), oriented also towards content creation, or an effective social media manager. Of course, we can make or post a Facebook post, but there is, for sure, a way to make it nicer, more attractive, more efficient, with larger reach and impact. Maybe you can help us with that.

Program Details

Back in times ... back to nature

Hi there.
We are a family of ... well, at least 4 people plus our cat, goat, sheep, bees, hens and roosters.

In the spring of 2023, we finally found a place to call our home. Even though it is at the beginning of a longer process of being beautiful, cosy, lovable, ...

We put ourselves into a challenge of living here, even in harsh conditions as they are here at this point:
- It's in a remote place with only 1 close neighbour (@ 30 m from us). The other families live approx. 400 and 600m away, and others are even further away.
- No running water yet. But there is a spring not so far away from where we get water, and we filter for drinking or just use it for washing dishes/clothes or ourselves (outside). And also a well.
- People who previously lived (I wouldn't be afraid of saying 'squated') here left an unbelievable mess and enormous quantities of trash. So much so that it was hard to enter the house. We are slowly cleaning the place and separating it into big bags (used before for storing 1 ton of grain).
- part of the roof collapsed
... and so on
It is a lot of work done already, and even more ahead of us.

But hey! The nature here is just amazing. It is a wonderful place. Once the main things are done, it will be even more obvious. But it is a place for tough people, and for people with vision for the future... and a bit crazy, I guess ;)

We live in a VERY ECO-friendly environment, so our living approach is the same.

Although we do not hold any eco-certification or eco-label, an ecological way of life has long been an essential part of our adult lives.

We do not use artificial fertilisers in the garden, but a mixture of water and soaked nettles or dissolved chicken droppings.
We have been sorting waste on the plot for the second


Activities & Shift

We have been sorting waste on the plot for the second year in a row. We prefer eco-friendly cosmetics.
We do have a car, but we often get around by bike. We have some power tools, but we only use mechanisation where necessary.

Returning from a walk in the forest with a bag full of garbage (in place of a basket full of mushrooms) is something that is self-evident to us. We often did this even in very remote places while travelling through Latin America, where we even managed to organise a mass cleanup together with the natives.

In short, a long-term stay in nature leads us to coexist with it somehow automatically and, of course, without any targeted effort or strong personal effort.

We have some animals, but we definitely want more in the future.
There are plenty of dears/hinds all around us. Imagine the rut here! It's huge! Plenty of singing deer are everywhere in autumn.

We speak EN, ES, RU, SK, and CZ.
We spent almost three years travelling around Latin America, most of the time among real people, not as tourists looking for sights. We are happy to give a taste of our family life to others.
We welcome any help, but as former slow travellers, we would prefer a longer stay where we can find more time for a deeper cultural exchange, such as conversation, cooking together, playing board games, a trip to the surrounding area, and so on.

Having 2 small kids, I have a lot to do. So we would highly appreciate helping hands on many various projects (trash picking/sorting, cultivating our garden-to-be, helping to build some easy projects from wood, stone or both and so on ... it is a huge challenge here, and we know it is not for everyone. We live in very basic, Spartan conditions...
