  Description

  When it comes to my work, I aim for perfection, I want my guests to feel like there is nothing they don't have. I like to amaze people with my work and give them the best experience they can have. But to do that, I have to be meticulous and work hard some days, bec ause perfection doesn't come just like that.
  The activities that involve the cabin includes sweeping the floor, inside and outside, mop, change the sheets, make the beds, vacuum the carpet, wash the dishes, breaking the woods (In case there is cold and we need to heat the cabins) and other housekeeping activities. When all the tasks below are done, we may go to collect fruits, wild mushrooms, help with fishing or clean the fish that is caught. Also, from time to time, we may paint wood or any other material, repair things, build new stuff, dig and clean some land.
  In the free time you can paddle a boat on the lake, explore the woods, fish. Sometimes I go to cities like Timisoara, Lugoj, Făget, Fârdea, so you get the oportunity to visit these places too. The point is there is always something to be done, but relaxing and having a good time is part of the experience. I also have 2 other locations where I go from time to time. One is in the beautiful woods of Zarand Mountains and the other one is near Danube river, so the more you stay, the more you'll get the chance to see.
  There are some days when you can be paid, 50-100-150 lei a day but most of the time you only recieve food and shelter.
  My cooking skills are good, I can cook almost anything, I was vegetarian and vegan, so I understand everybody's needs and provide for all type of diets.
  I studied psychology, and I'm working with people for 2 years now, so being emphatic and understanding what a person needs is kind of easy for me.
  I am very active, hard working guy, passionate about exploring and knowing all kind of stuff, not only practical, but intellectual and spiritual.
  I think my place is perfect for someone who likes to have time to think, to learn cool stuff and meet a lot of people. Have a great time, wherever you choose to go !

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Romania has wonderful places and this place is one of them. We are surrounded by forest, we have a lake near us in which we can swim. We can fish, so if you're an fishing amateur, that's the place for you ! There are also some plants and mushrooms that grow here so when the season it's coming, we can do that as well. The neighbours are fun sometimes, and the community we have here it's united. I'm the only one who rent the cabin so we are in the center of attention. You'll learn everything you need to know about housekeeping and organizing all type of events.

  Help

  I own 3 cabins near Lake Surduc. People come and organize parties and all kind of events. My job is to keep the place clean and make sure the guests have a great time. Sometimes I cook for them, sometimes I gave them boat rides, and most of the times I join them during the event. During the week it's peaceful and silent but some weekends are for party animals. So housekeeping is the most common activity the workawayers will have to do, but it can also inlcude helping me to cook for the guests, take the guests out on the lake with the boat, cut the grass, cut wood, make a fire.

  Accommodation

  You'll stay with me in one of the 3 cabins, depends on which one is free, but usually I sleep in the smallest one, with 3 beds. you'll have enough space for everything you want to do here. We have wifi so you can always stay connected with your family and friends. Sometimes you'll be alone, but most of the time I'll be there too. I eat all types of food and if you have any preferences I can provide you everything you need. It would be better if you like fish too, because we have plenty here.

  What else ...

  You will not have to work everyday, so when you're free, you can go wherever you want as long as you come back in time. Trains are cheap here but we also have apps with people that can take you to some places. the nearest train station from the cabin is at 30 km away.
