Program Details
We are looking for people (a strong guys with expirience would be the best solution) who love life in the nature, who like socializing and contact with people from all over the world,who want to be away from everyday life and city noise,love "hard" village work,love nature and wildlife and who would help us with with the house that we bought recently and that needs to be renovated and the entire lot cleaned because everything around it is overgrown (no one has lived there for about 15 years). We look forward to spending time with you ;)Please read all of this one more time before you send me request:)
Activities & Shift
We are looking for practical, energetic people to help us restore our recently purchased house and clear the surrounding land, which has been abandoned and overgrown for about 15 years. Tasks may include carrying and moving building materials, helping with basic renovation work, removing the old kitchen and helping install a new one, preparing and painting walls, and assisting with floor repairs or replacement.
We also need help clearing weeds, brush and debris from the land, tidying the garden, and trimming or clearing overgrown trees that block the view. Some tasks can be physically demanding and involve working outdoors. Experience with renovation, gardening, tools or landscaping is very welcome.
Roof replacement and other specialist or potentially dangerous work will be handled by qualified professionals; volunteers may help with simple supporting tasks when it is safe and appropriate. We will explain each task and agree on the daily schedule together.
Rules
We welcome positive, honest and kind people who enjoy working as part of a team and bring a smile to their day. A good sense of humour, a helpful attitude and respect for one another make a big difference to us.
Please be honest about your experience and let us know what you feel comfortable doing. We appreciate reliability, open communication and a willingness to help. If you are unsure about a task, please ask before starting it, especially when using tools or working around the house.
We ask everyone to respect our home, the local community and the surrounding nature, and to keep shared spaces tidy. We look forward to meeting you, sharing stories and enjoying our time together!
