Description
We are a female family of 3. My 92 year old mom, my 56 year old partner and me (68). We are native Dutch. Speak dutch, german and english. Trying to learn hungarian. A very difficult language.
We moved to Hungary 2019, december. A big house and even bigger garden. Most of it is grass. You should not be afraid to get your hands dirty or be afraid of bugs.
We have 4 little dogs, 3 poodle and 1Yorkshire.
We live in a nice quiet village called Vése, about 30 km from lake Balaton.
As accomodation we can provide our own house.
You can also bring your own accomodation like a tent or mobilhome, if you want.
We could use help in mowing the grass.
Clean the flower beds.
Trimming the hedge.
Vése is a nice quiet village. Our garden is 1500m2. We have a beautifull swimming pool.
In our village you can take a bus to Marcali, Kaposvár or Nagykanisza.
And from there a train to other cities.
Almost every Sunday there is a market in the larger towns around us.
A car of your own would be very helpful.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Help around the house
House sitting
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will have plenty of time to travel around in the area. Explore all the little villages. See how the people live here. Visit towns like Marcali, Kaposvar, Nagytad, Nagykanisza and more.
Our town has a bus stop.
The bus only leaves every hour.
Take nice walks around the village.
To talk to most villagers you will need a good translater app on your phone, because most of them only speak Hungarian.
We do have very little contact with our neighbours because of the language
Help
As we are building a new house 300 km from this place, we need an housesitter.
We will come, but not so offten.
We could really need some help with Gardening. Mowing the grass with machines, partly very heavy.
Cutting the hedges, electrical machines.
For this it is required to have some experience in garden work.

Our own house with a double bedroom.

What else ...
Important would be that you stay longer. At least a whole month.
We would appreciate some help every day. You should not be afraid to get your hands dirty.
Know how to use a lawnmower or electric hedgetrimmer.
No need to make many hours. Time is to be sorted out together.
More important is that you can do it all by yourself.

While I was being there, it wasn't really hard working, but you still need to do your tasks.

I got jobs like mowing the grass, cutting the hedge, made a nice fence, etc.
