Description
I am a world citizen, I traveled around Europe gaining experience for quite some time and now I have rented a picturesque farm in Lemko's village in Beskid Niski. I keep it as agritouristic farm with rural life experience, I work as a handyman in the village and I offer horseback riding classes and downhill skiing classes plus some field works with the horses.
the farm is still in the development stage. there are animals and the beginnings of a garden, but there is much more to be doneTypes of help and learning opportunities

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I speak Polish, English (both fluent), some French and some Russian. The farm is situated in one of the most preserved Lemko villages in the region on the trial of wooden orthodox churches. I offer my services as a guide and some recommandation for the trips in the area. I'd love to share my experience in natural horsemanship and skiing as well as general skills in farming.
Help
in the autumn, help is mainly needed with preparing wood for the winter, organising pasture and hay for the horses. help is also needed with the construction of the goat shed.
