    Description

    My name is Irina and together with my husband Costel, we own a house in a beautiful place from Romania, Baile Herculane town, in a mountain area with thermal springs. The garden around the house is quite big, around 5000 square meters and a swimming pool, green space, a green house where we grow our own vegetables and a summer kitchen. The house is situated on the shore of the lake Prisaca. I am a Kriya yoga teacher on the line of Paramahansa Yogananda and a spiritual coach. I'm 59 years old and my husband is 67. We have two dogs and four cats. We love meeting people from other countries and to share this beautiful place with them.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Romania still keeps alive the old traditions and that is indeed charming. We are still buying eggs, milk and cheese from the local farmers. our guest can learn about growing vgetables from our vegetables greenhouse, they can learn to cook and they can eat our specific dishes, they can enjoy riding boat on the lake or fishing when is allowed. Also they can visit around, we are in a very beautiful area of National Park Domogled, in the mountains. they can have free bath in the termal water springs, very close to our place. I practice and teach Kriya Yoga for those who are interested. I am a spiritual coach and I can help with emotional issues.

    The propriety is on the hill and we have many stairs from the front door of the house till the shore of the lake. We will really appreciate some help with the maintaining of the garden or in the vegetables greenhouse.

    Sometimes we can also appreciate a helping hand in our home stuff. As I told we are around sixty like age and our land is quite big and a lot of stairs because the house is on a hill down to the lake. So we are waiting for people who wants to feel and to be with us, in our place like in a family with good and with bad. :)
