Description
Hi , Iam Marlies, iam 55 and i live here with my partner Gertjan . Here in slovenia is this name not so easy and you can also speak to magrieta , my second name here for my friends in slovenia :)
In 2018 we headed off from the netherlands and found our place in the mountains of the vipava valley.
The house is situated on a parcel of land that has countless possibilities. We are renovating this house and
and we are buzy for a higher part of the house.
I am a creative mind, an artist with painting and I work with wild flowers and herbs from my garden and the mountains. In my garden I use only environmentally friendly materials.
I would like to share this passion in the full nature with flowers, herbs and butterflies. So now I invite you to learn what the beautiful nature has to offer. We are looking forward to meet you...open-minded and nature-lovers . would you like share this experience with us ?
This is a central place for many trips to national park triglav , the seaside or ljubljana and dont forget its amazing to make hikes and exployer the karstmountains of slovenia !

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I would like to introduce you to the flora and fauna of this area once a week and take you on a walk with my dog. I would also like to introduce you to my painting skills and give you the opportunity to practice this.
I hope that I can learn from you and discover more about other cultures and the use of herbs from nature.
Help
It would be nice if you could contribute and take some work off our hands.
Help in the spring period, tilling the soil, the general maintenance of my garden, mowing the grass, sowing vegetables, picking herbs and cultivating them. I can teach you what is needed for this, which herbs are important in the house, garden and kitchen ..and for your health. We are going to share all the work together, so that I also offer you the opportunities to learn about the beauty of nature and the wild flowers and herbs. If you are also handy in construction, there are certainly tasks here where you might be able to help out.

Accommodation
In the spring and autumn period you can use our camper or tent to sleep on our terrain. If this is rented in the summer period we have a sleeping space in the barn. Eat with us or without obligation you can choose to pick some vegetables from the garden and cook outside at the camper or in the nature around us.
What else ...
Enjoy the silence, go on an adventure through the woods and in the mountains, spot wild animals, make a campfire if you like. It is also possible to take a walk with my dog MIKA. She is the sweetest, so if you can handle animals well and you like her then you are the best friends.
1 x per week I go shopping, the possibility is there to ride along or drop you off somewhere for a walk and in the summer i must to go once in 2 weeks or more to a city , ljubljana or Triest for the dropp off and return the campervan. There are bicycles available, in consultation and with a reservation that they are well cared for and a deposit that is requested, you can use them a number of times up to a maximum of 1 hour at a time.
If you smoke , not in the house or in the campervan !
