Description
We are a family: Adam, Anna and Franek (12 years old boy) and our old border collie and crazy welsh corgis pembroke. We live in a small and quiet but touristic village - Opinogora (100 km away from Warsaw, Central Poland), famous for unique Museum of Romantism and the smallest castle in Europe. Our house is situated among the trees, away from neighbors.
During the week we share our time working in the art studio, painting and creating sculptures, and working at our farm. There is a forest, orchard, vegetable garden, meadows, chickens, goats, carpenter workshop and our own gallery. We grow our own food, loving organic and local products. We love to brew a homemade beer. After busy days we enjoy our weekends relaxing at the river or the nearby lake, kayaking, having fires and picnics. Come and visit us! We would love to meet people from the whole world, get to know you and your culture, as we share our life with you.

Flore stayed with us for 2 weeks. She is really quiet and helpful.
She helped us in the garden (planting trees and vegetables,...) but also with the tiny house.
She can work on her own and understand quickly.
She also helped me a bit with Adam’s French.
We thank her for all the help she gave us !
