Bulgarien
Bisher 64 mal gespeichert
Hi my name is Sonia, I'm in my 60's, English and have lived in Bulgaria for just over 5 years. I have restored an old Bulgarian house and have kept it as traditional as possible where I can. I've never done anything like this before so I am learning lots as I go along.
I live in a small, peaceful. rural village 35km from Yambol, the county town, south east Bulgaria and around 60km from the Turkish border crossing. There are 2 small general shops here and a lovely traditional Bulgarian bar where you can sit with the locals and enjoy a coffee or drink, traditional Bulgarian snacks and just relax. There is also a small village museum if your interested and a post office. There are some wonderful walks around the village taking in the beautiful countryside views.... You can experience the true spirit of Bulgaria here, the villagers are very friendly, they turn their land with a horse drawn plough and a donkey or horse and cart is a popular means of transport.
I have 11 cats, 2 dogs. so you must be an animal lover and enjoy walking as Ted loves to go out. This is a very rural village, if you want nightlife and parties this won't be for you.
This will be my fifth year on Workaway and I have met and had help from some amazing volunteers for which I'm very grateful. so i'm very much looking forward to meeting new ones this year.
This year I'm needing some different help from volunteers as I've had some ill health and am not able to do as much. Help in the garden is needed, tidying, cutting back and making some no dig raised beds. A wooden window needs paint striping, repairing and oiling. The New roof timbers need staining and the outside walls painting.
Insidesome help with housework, cleaning would be great.
General help with lifting, loading and heavy work inside and outside the house.
I am looking for volunteers that are responsible and mature, that are happy with their own company, that enjoy managing their working time and are happy to work alone. Someone that enjoys being with the animals and nature but also enjoys good food and conversation. I have plenty of land to park up for van travelers if you wish. I can accommodate one or two people in a caravan or a single room , whatever your preference as a solo traveler.
Covid 19. I am fully vaccinated.
For 25hrs a week help In exchange I will provide , hot showers, breakfast, lunch and dinner, fruit, biscuits for snacks. I do not provide alcohol or chocolate :) I also have wifi, washing machine, TV via the internet, lots of books and of course the animals to entertain you! ...... I look forward to showing you around my village and will make you most welcome in my home.
When messaging please say what particular jobs you would like to help with.
I'm not sure what a digital nomad is so havent ticked the box but if you are one please explain when you write.

In your free time you can visit Yambol there is a great museum packed with information and history, a beautiful park, cinema and lots of shops to browse as well as some great pavement cafes to have a coffee and watch the world go by. From Yambol you can get the bus or train to many other villages and towns including the Burgas and the coast. There is a traditional Bulgarian bar in the village that serves traditional Bulgarian drinks and snacks and meet the locals. The walks are wonderful around the village. I have internet so you can watch TV on your device and plenty of books to read. The city and coastline of Burgas are around 1 1/2 by train or bus.
