Description
We are a retired husband and wife in our sixties, Andrej and Vida, and we own a small farm in the midst of the wilderness in Haloze, Slovenia. We love nature and animals and on our 4,5 ha farm we have sheep, dogs and cats. We are friendly and open people, who like meeting new acquaintences.
We have accepted Workaway help in the past, and after a couple of years, we would love to welcome people to our home again!

Accommodation
Our travellers will live in a newbuilt house with us. They will have a seperate bedroom, other rooms are in shared use.
What else ...
The house and farm are located far away from the nearest village and difficult to reach with car. We will of course pick you up and drop you off to the best of our abilities. We will gladly show you the nearby city of Ptuj (the oldest city in Slovenia) and Maribor (the second biggest). There is also a possibility of joining us on a short vacation on the Croatian coast.
