A experiência

We are a Dutch couple who moved to the beautiful rural south of Hungary six months ago. We live in a 200-year-old, traditional Hungarian clay farmhouse (Tanya), surrounded by nature, forests, and the vast Puszta landscape. With no direct neighbors, we enjoy absolute peace and quiet. You’ll often see deer, rabbits, and pheasants roaming around, and with no light pollution, this is a fantastic spot for stargazing. \

Detalhes

What keeps us busy?
Our goal is to become as self-sufficient as possible. We’ve already taken a big step with our solar panel system and battery storage, which allows us to use only a small amount of electricity from the grid. Our water comes from a private well, and we filter our own drinking water. For heating, we are working towards further sustainability. Currently, we use a combination of air conditioning (mostly powered by our solar energy) and a wood-fired central heating system, which is very common in rural Hungary. Our firewood comes partly from our land and partly from certified logging sources.

Since we’ve only been living here for a short time, there’s still a lot to do. We could use both extra hands and valuable knowledge.


Atividades & Turnos

Projects and activities
Most of our land is still undevel3oped. We are working on creating a large vegetable garden of about 800 m² (with the potential to expand, as long as it remains manageable). We also have various fruit and nut trees, which we would love to use for food processing.

Ongoing tasks:
- Garden and landscape maintenance
- Firewood processing (tree felling, sawing, splitting, stacking)
- Processing fruit, vegetables, and herbs
- Further development of the garden
- Maintenance of the house and guesthouse (repairing clay walls, painting, general upkeep)

Special projects:
- Woodworking and carpentry (building benches, cabinets, etc.)
- Creating a relaxation and meditation area
- Building a fire pit with cooking facilities and seating
- Constructing an outdoor kitchen
- Plastering indoor walls
- Creating insect hotels using branch piles

Besides these projects, we also love to learn from others. We’re interested in your knowledge about growing vegetables and fruit, soil composition and development, fertilization, and irrigation – especially considering the dry Mediterranean climate of this part of Hungary.

It’s difficult to describe an average day because tasks vary greatly depending on the season. But one thing is certain: there is always plenty to do, and we can barely keep up!
