Apple farm in Slovenia
Pays: Slovenia
Last Activity: 05.21.2012
Description
We are a small and characteristic family. I'm Loreto, from Galicia (Spain) and my partner is Anže from Bled (Slovenia). We live with his uncle (Brane) a really friendly and special person.
we have a son Jernej, he was born in july.
We are opened, free and tolerant people. We love travelling, meeting new people and new cultures.
We have an apple farm that runs in a family and where Anže and Brane work. We don't have any other workers. The farm is at the begging of the Slovenian Alpes (40 km from the Austrian border) and we are just 3 km away from one of the most popular lakes in Slovenia: lake Bled. In which you can swim even to its island (which is in the middle of the lake), feed birds and ducks, take a walk around it or even rent a boat.

It depends of the season the type of work changes.
In spring we have to work on the field to prepare it to the season. Also help with the "old" trees which will be bloom, then we have to put the flowers away. Everything is white! Real romantic and wonderful experience total connected with the nature, with the Julian Alpes pictures in front of you...
In the end of summer (till autumn) we begin picking apples for couple of months. But it's not a heavy job, because the tractors move all the boxes... we don't have to load them.

Picking apples during the day is super rewarding and entertaining, especially because of the parachutes falling from the sky just in front of the Julian Alps. After a while a hearty competition with more

This place is amazing! Anze, Lore, Branko and Jernej are a wonderful family who we felt very lucky to get to stay with. Anze is always laughing and making work feel like fun, conversations with Lore are interesting and enlightening, Branko was happy to be our patient and smiling Slovenian teacher, and little Jernej is a joy to be around.

Lore and Anze were amazing hosts! We stayed with them for two weeks in June before the arrival of Jernej. They treated us as friends as soon as we arrived and showed us so many Slovenian things that we never would have seen otherwise.
Oh and lots of Spanish cooking!
We both loved our time there and have now decided Slovenia is our favorite more
