we are located near the forest and we are the only family living in this village, all others are weekend houses and summer houses
Our house is build in 1896, and it was German Villa, , After the second world war the whole area was restricted and destroyed all houses but this house was kept for soldiers and ministers guest house till 1997, this village was having 150 houses with German inhabitants after the war they moved everyone and kept only 5 houses left in the village.

we are 4 people now, me, my wife and our 11 years and 9 years old daughters, sometimes I call them wild animals :) and we have a cats outside the house, chickens, budgies, race and fancy Pigeons and 4 Alpacas and 5 horses (Irish cob).
We take 1 or 2 volunteers at one time.

we are not looking for just workers. we all need friendly and happy people around us. Helping on reconstruction is 5 hours a day and 5 days a week. Besides that, we can all together prepare food (breakfast, lunch, dinner), clean the dishes, play with children. Average timings of the food is 9am breakfast, 1pm lunch and 7 pm dinner. living in nature is not about only working . sometimes there will be more work sometimes only fun. but most of the time its mixed. we need people really self motivated to learn and willing to try new things. Some evenings we can play games, music, apply henna, bring wood from the forest and prepare fire, have interesting talks etc. Day off is the day we all can be cooking together and going out for picnic, and enjoy the day. In the day off we all have to cook and helping in cleaning the dishes. If you need something don't hesitate to ask Alice or Anbu. we need to have video chat before we confirm our volunteers. thanks for understanding, looking forward for great people.

I do not have enough space to express how truly incredible this experience with this family is. Everyone is well intentioned and part of a beautifully maintained system where there is a place for each person. Expect to receive 10x the kindness you give in to Anbu, Alice and their children. They were hospitable, flexible, and planted the seeds of knowledge within me. I had a wonderful time resetting in the remote area of Czechia and hope to return one day. For anyone thinking about it… take the trip! Thank you for everything, and I hope the move to Sardinia goes smoothly.

I really enjoyed my stay :) Alice and Anbu are very nice people!
The farm is surrounded by beautiful forest and the place is full of stories!
I didn’t find the work difficult, we prepared rooms for the guests, helped for the walk with horses and alpacas or helped in the kitchen during the children camp.
The only negative point I would say is that there is not wifi in the bedroom.
It’s a perfect place to recharge batteries and to be close as possible to nature.
I wish the best at this beautiful family and I also hope that the new project will be conclusive !

Alice, Anbu thank you for everything, I really enjoyed this experience, the place is beautiful, the food is good and the people are really welcoming. The work sometimes was hard but it depends also of how you handle things and organize yourself, the camp was also really nice and enjoyed all of it!
Would recommend if you're looking for nature, walks and horses!

I had a really good time with Alice and Anbu🫶🏼their family is very warm and welcoming, they have two girls who are so lovely and smart who always treated me as a family member. The place is amazing, the forest is so beautiful that you feel in a fairly tale🙌there are some really cool spots to explore 🏔️🏃🏻‍♀️Regarding the work, it depends on some factors like weather, Anbu’s health or what is necessary to do in the moment, but overall it is not a demanding work, they are flexible with the working hours👌🏼

This was a truly incredible experience. I am so grateful for the warmth and kindness this family showed me. Everything was perfect for me. I was treated with respect, so I was motivated to help them with helping with the animals, assisting in the kitchen or preparing rooms for the guests.

I really recommend volunteering with this family if you would like an opportunity to reconnect with nature, meet locals and spend time with the lovely family. They really treated me well and were very considerate. I could tell they really wanted me to enjoy my stay and went above and beyond to welcome me.
