    Hello everyone!

    We're a couple from Poland (23 & 29 yo) who love to explore the earth, our goal is to become citizens of the world with memories from every part of it.

    We're in love with nature, especially with animals. We are owners of a dog named Luna and a cat named Leonidas which we are missing during our travels.

    We really like to seek for the beautiful views of landscapes, architecture, and skies full of stars, the last one make us breathtaking. The second appears to our jobs, Julia is an Architect working in interior design office and Jan is making an architecture visualizations.

    We are active people who both like to spent free time on sports. Julia is into extreme sports and Jan is addicted to martial arts but we enjoy simple walking as well.

    So far we have been workaways, we lived with and helped 3 hosts in Spain. During this stay, we visited almost the entire Andalusia region. This experience was one of the best of our lives. Now we have decided to come back and create our own project and host people from all over the world. ❤

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a large Polish traditional family, full of young people, the house is always cheerful. Our grandma loves to cook delicious traditional Polish dishes. We all like spending time together at the pond that belongs only to us. You will be able to bathe in it as much as you want, sail on a boat, fish, walk by the river, walk in the surrounding forests, and spend time in a quiet place in the bosom of nature. Not far from our place is Warsaw - the capital of Poland and the largest city. We have also good train connections in many directions (Łódź, Wrocław, Kraków, Poznań), so you will be able to visit many beautiful places in Poland, which is rich in countless monuments, sometimes over a thousand years old.

    our project is to prepare a plot for our wedding, which will take place in the garden by the pond. We are planning to organize a several-day wedding that will take place in mid-August, so in mid-June we would like to invite someone to help us organize it. The work involves simple DIY activities, cleaning the garden, planting bushes and flowers. We are also looking for people who have little experience in renovation, we would like to refresh the house and the spaces around it (paint the walls, fill in the missing tiles in the bathroom, paint the tiles, etc.). Plumbers and builders are especially welcome ;) but we have some experience in this topic, so if you don't have much knowledge but you want to learn new skills, don't worry, we will be happy to teach you. :)
