  Beschreibung

  #### We need volunteers for these dates! Get in touch if you can come! July 10th to August 3rd. #### Also possibly sometime in September.
  We are an English couple reviving an old stone farmhouse in Slovenia, surrounded by 6 acres of forest and meadow. Our base while here is an off-grid yurt with a shower and composting toilet. When not in Slovenia, we live near Bristol in the UK. We also have two young children: an 8-year-old daughter and a 4-year-old son.
  
  We enjoy good, locally sourced food and drink, love cooking, and appreciate meeting new people. Mealtimes are often shared, and we’re always happy to cook together or exchange recipes and stories. We’ve hosted people from many different backgrounds and really value the cultural exchange and new perspectives that come with it. This property comes alive when we have plenty of visitors!
  
  Currently, we’re preparing one of our small outbuildings for future use as accommodation for friends and visitors.
  Volunteers typically help with clearing spaces, moving materials, upcycling and general upkeep. Anyone with a keen interest in natural building or woodwork might enjoy seeing some of the work in progress.
  
  Other tasks you can get involved in:
  Gardening, landscaping, maintaining paths, and bonfires!
  Forestry clearing, log splitting, and strimming
  Food prep and occasional cooking
  Helping out with the kids
  
  There’s a wide variety of things to get involved in, and we always find ways for each person to contribute in a way that suits them.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Slovenia is an amazing country. The people are very generous and hospitable.
  While you're here, we encourage you to explore other parts of the Soča Valley and beyond for multi-day trips into Slovenia. The scenery is stunning and very accessible.
  While you're staying with us, you'll have the opportunity to learn new skills while bringing your abilities to the project.
  
  We have a wood-fired hot tub and hammocks to relax at the end of a day's work. (Hot tub usage is sometimes dependant on recent rainfall). We also have a small swimming pool. We have wifi. We ask for minimum 4hrs of work a day, 5 days a week, and in addition, we would also really appreciate occasional help with the day to day 'facilities', such as lighting the fire for the hot tub/help with food prep or washing up. We will only be a small team, so collaboration is appreciated. In return, we will provide accommodation and 3 good hearty meals a day. Please note our property is quite remote, set amongst the beautiful forest, mountains and tiny villages. It's 25 minutes drive to the nearest shops & the tourist activities of the Soca Valley. Because of that, a stay at our homestead might better suit people who are happy to entertain themselves/relax or hike in the countryside when not working, and ideally with a vehicle so you can explore further. We can offer some lifts when we are going into town for groceries/building supplies etc, but we try to be as self sufficient as possible to reduce these journeys. We are looking forward to hosting you.
