    Description

    Hello there!

    We are a Polish family with a small baby Lola (7 months) and a dog Nelly, living in a cottage we recently bought.

    The place is wonderful, surrounded by forests and fishing ponds. It is a small village with no shops, only a farm with cows nearby. The nearest town is Lubliniec, 11 km away.

    Damian works full-time remotely as an IT tester and Kasia is full-time with Lola :) Diversity of languages is important to us, we intend to raise a multilingual child, so if you can speak to her in English, Spanish or another language, that would be great!

    There are lots of opportunities to do cool things here, with plans to make a ceramic kiln and a greenhouse. In addition to this, we would appreciate help with housekeeping, childcare and gardening.

    The work would be for 4 hours and meals would be shared. Kasia is a vegetarian and Damian loves meat, so everyone will find something for himself.

    We would like to share our slow life, long walks, bird watching (many of which we can see in our garden), playing board games, drinking tea and campfires.

    We don't smoke or drink alcohol and we like silence.

    We can share our favourite dishes.
    Damian knows a lot about Polish history, which he is happy to share, and Kasia can help with English, or maybe someone wants to learn Polish?
    We will soon have a piano, so you are welcome to play or Kasia can teach you the basics.

    We are new to gardening, so someone who knows how plants work would be nice :)
