The Experience

We are a family of 5. My wife is from Transylvania and grew up in an off grid community, until she was 10 years old, using a bartering system, exchanging goods, produce and physical work. I was born and raised on the California coast and moved to Virginia as an adult. Our two boys were born in Virginia. When they reached the ages of 3 and 5, we thought we would expose them to a different culture and smaller community life, so we moved to Hungary.

I'm very grateful for this experience. I learned a lot about living in an ecological environment and the importance of connecting with nature. The host gave us a warm welcome, and his wife guided us with patience and dedication during the tasks, which we truly enjoyed. The kids were friendly, creative, and fun. I loved sharing my artistic culture with them and also learning from theirs. I also enjoyed taking walks with the Dog, Mocca , and feeding the goats. I highly recommend this place to disconnect from the fast-paced city life and live something authentic.

I had a very good experience with the farm family. From the beginning, Tim made us feel very welcome and at home. Marta was patient in teaching us the tasks we had to do, and thank you for feeding us, the food was always plentiful!. The children are very friendly. I really enjoyed walking Mocca in the evenings. I learned about eco-sustainability, I was able to connect with nature, and I truly recommend this experience!. Something to add: the toilet is a dry one, it was a new experience for me. At first, I had my doubts, but I understood its purpose and got used to it.

I had a wonderful stay. We ate a lot. Marta showed us traditional dishes, which were delicious. Tim was very friendly. He was open to teaching us about permaculture. The work was relaxing. The house was very comfortable, and the children were very friendly. Mocca was the most affectionate. And the goats were beautiful. Marta combined the colleagues very well, we were 3 Latinos so it made things easier when we related.
