Description
Welcome!
I am Maté, and I'm on a mission to create a unique space where like-minded individuals can come together to enjoy nature, co-create, and grow organic food while embracing remote work. My vision is to build a thriving community of passionate makers and nature enthusiasts, but for now, I am the sole founder and driving force behind the project.
I have lived in ten different countries, travelling around the World looking for the perfect place to settle. I have been working in startups, always focusing on projects that have positive impact, social enterprises. I am excited to create a place for people to connect with nature, express their creativity through building, creating art, growing, creating an idyllic place for others to enjoy and work remotely from. 🛠️🪓🪚🎨🎸
There's between 1-10 💃🕺 people staying at the property, depending on the time of the year and volunteers who applied or other guests.

Help
The project is in its early stages, and I'm excitedly working on multiple projects, including renovating a charming stone building as well as working on the land, farming and forestry. With the help of future volunteers like you, I hope to bring this vision to life and foster a vibrant community.
At the moment, we're offering basic facilities such as hot running water, a toilet, electricity to charge up, glamping tent or a bed inside the house (tent / room might be shared, depending on number of volunteers, we talk over details before).
The ongoing projects include: renovation of the house, building facilities around our forest, trail building, farming, gardening, planting trees etc.
I'm thrilled to welcome volunteers who are passionate about engaging in these creative activities and have skills with tools and growing food.
What's available around is truly breathtaking – hours of pristine hiking paths, absolute peace and quiet, and two streams crossing our lands, perfect for refreshing dips on hot days.
If you share my vision for and are eager to be part of this exciting journey, I can't wait to meet you! Together, let's create a haven that celebrates nature, skill-sharing, and personal growth.
As a bonus, I, Maté, have experience working and co-founding multiple startups. If you're interested in technology, I'm here to support your growth by offering guidance in programming, design, project management, and more.
Join me, and let's bring this inspiring vision to life!

Accommodation
There is not a lot in terms of accomodations, but it's safe, warm and cozy, there's warm shower and a kitchen that has everything necessary to live. Accommodations are increasingly more comfortable but sometimes there's limited privacy since there's mainly a big open space inside the house.
What else ...
besides it's surrounding wilderness, streams, forests, mountains, is near the coast where you can find the most beautiful (quiet) beaches, spots for snorkeling and surfing. We're part of a large community of expats, and we always organise some interesting events. There's a guitar and a bike available to use.

Space for parking camper vans
There's space for campervans, a big van will fit, but maybe a huge one not. It's an asphalted parking lot.
Can possibly accept pets
Any well-behaved pets that are not aggressive towards other animals are welcome. There are three big dogs - Spanish Mastiffs - on the property. They are very friendly but there might be conflicts with other animals and we cannot take responsibility for your pet. We also have chickens, which might be free-roaming and your pet must not be aggressive towards them.
