**Workaway Host Profile**
We are looking for enthusiastic helpers to join us this **May** to help develop a new vegetable garden and help on a few outdoor projects. If you enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and experiencing a relaxed country lifestyle, this could be a great opportunity.
Our main focus this season is preparing the land for a productive vegetable garden. Tasks will include clearing sections of land, building sustainable and natural-style fences, and general garden maintenance such as weeding and mowing. The work is physical but rewarding, and we welcome people who are reasonably fit, motivated, and happy to get their hands dirty.
We can host **up to four helpers at a time**. Accommodation is available **inside the house**, and there is also space in the **camp area** for those who prefer a more outdoorsy setup. The atmosphere here is very relaxed, with plenty of open space and a casual camp-style feel.
This is a great place for people who enjoy **country living**, fresh air, and working together on practical projects. In your free time you can relax around the property, explore the surrounding countryside, and enjoy the slower pace of rural life.
If this sounds like something you’d enjoy and you’re keen to help build a productive vegetable garden while experiencing a simple country lifestyle, we’d love to hear from you.
Get in touch and tell us a bit about yourself!

It’s a lovely spot for walking, reading, working online, or simply enjoying a slower rhythm of life. Bulgaria is very cold in the winter months there is a log burner for heat ,so please make sure you are confident making and keeping a fire going, if you are applying fir the winter months. The summer months are hot and sunny so bring light clothing and a bathing suit 😎
