Give a helping hand in our guesthouse and taste the wonderful Transylvania, Romania

Details

• 

  Description

  We are a young family living in a small and charming Saxon village, in the heart of Transylvania. Because it still preserves the traditional architecture and, in many ways, the archaic way of rural life, our village is an UNESCO protected site and one of the most visited places in Romania. Its surroundings, rich in wild life and rare plant species, are great for hikes or bike rides.
  
  We own and run a small but beautiful guesthouse, hosting tourists from all over the world, as well as a small museum. Also, we have a large garden where we grow delicious organic vegetables.
  
  The work will be paid with 2.5 eur/h. This includes accommodation in a private room with bathroom, and most meals.
  
  If you are interested in history, traditional rural architecture and nature, our place might be a good destination for you.
