Enjoy peaceful rural life in our tiny homestead in Valchanovo, Bulgaria

  Descripción

  We are a family of four with a tiny private homestead on half of a hectar of land. We raise goats, keep two horses, some veggie beds. Always something to do. Besides, we have kept our remote jobs which makes the farming part even more thrilling. For which reason we really would appreciate some help.
  My partner is local but I moved here some 3 years ago having spent prior to that quite a few years in London's corporate world. The place we are living in now is a very quiet small village in the Southeast of Bulgaria. We very much appreciate that quietness, lack of that constant city noise and the fact that we are surrounded by nature.
  Population of our place barely reaches 50 people on the weekends :D In other words there is not much going on here. So if you are someone who wants to enjoy some quiet atmosphere here is the right place for you.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Since we make cheese it would be a great opportunity for you to learn how to make white cheese the traditional way as well as blue cheese but you will not have to be involved in that, just if interested as is with everything else around our homestead. Traditionally made cheese is much different from all cheese that is made the commercial way nowadays in Bulgaria in regards to consumer's health. Anyone interested in healthy meals and cooking will be able to learn something from us and share their own experience.
  We could share any of the languages we speak as indicated in the other section.
  My partner could teach you Bulgarian folklore dances or have a joint music session if interested and have your instrument along. And I would love to speak with you about astrology, numerology or psychosomatics should you be interested in these.

  Ayuda

  The garden always requires some tasks to be done, we are afraid we won't be able to harvest and process the vegetables we've been growing. Processing of peas, beans, tomatoes, harvesting of potatoes is coming and we'll need help for these as well. Lawn needs mowing with the walk-behind mower once in a while too.
  
  We've attempted some permaculture but due to climate restrictions it did not go smooth so we are now transitioning back to more conventional type of gardening excluding of course any use of chemicals. Our two horses still need training, one of them - initial training, so if you are skilled in that and willing to help we'd be happy to hear more.
  
  If you are interested in baby sitting, you can spend some time with our little girl (9 months in May 2025) but only if interested.

  Alojamiento

  The house has two storeys, you will be occupying the upper one where there is all you need such as bath, toilet, kitchen with fridges, stove etc. Kitchen will be shared with us though.
  We do eat meat too even though not very often.
  We take our breakfast after goat milking which is around 8 to 9 am but you are free to do so at any time or join us.
  Lunch is rarely earlier than 2 pm.
  Dinner is late too as we need to milk goats in the evening. At dinner we don't cook meat but make big salads out of cucumbers, tomatoes, onions etc from our garden with seeds instead. If you wish so you are free to have your meals separetely, just in that case we won't be able to prepare them for you. We'd be happy to have them together though.

  Algo más...

  There is almost no public transport to our place. Bus reaches a place some 8 km away from us though, twice a day, from or to where we can take you by car. We travel to the nearby towns now a few times a week by car so we could deliver whatever you need or give you a lift if you need. We are an hour drive from the sea so we could drop you in the city (Burgas) when we have to go there for shopping so you can enjoy some time around the beach, dive into the salt-pans or have a bike ride /they got very nice municipal electrical bikes in Burgas/, we can suggest you some routes there.
  Hiking around is always an option even though there are no marked hiking paths. Yet, we will provide you a mountain bike and a GPS navigation to explore wherever you wish.

  Internet reception here at the house isn't great. It could work out if you no require fast speeds (above 10 Mbps down and 1 Mbps up).

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  For campers there is a flat space covered with grass. We just pull a cable and plug you in. Current we can supply isn't strong though. Unfortunately, we can't offer sewer connection.
