The Experience

This position it's about the eco-village-lifestyle, more specifically, it's about a family life in the middle of the Albanian mountains in the north, that operates as a guesthouse. It's a farm, where you can enjoy working on the land, taking care of the cows, pigs, chickens, dogs etc, bathe in the village river, helping tourist/visitors accomodation and food preparing. The main impact it's to help in eco-tourism growing and the family enviroment!

The guest house was incredibly beautiful! We enjoyed our time helping around the house and eating traditional Albanian food produced entirely from the property. The house is only accessible via a long hike, or you can arrange pickup with Viktor beforehand. Neither host speaks English fluently, so we recommend using google translate to communicate and ask how you can help around the house. We recommend spending a peaceful few days at the guest house :)

It was very nice to be at Viktor's guesthouse. Him and his mother are lovely people and very welcoming. I was taken out around the areas to go fishing, swimming, and explore during the times off. Only thing is the location can be very difficult to get to so it's best to communicate a pick up.
