    Description

    Hello! We’re Dustin and Yulia, an American-Russian couple living in a quiet old house in Dilijan, Armenia.

    Dustin is studying to become a historian, and Yulia is a music journalist. We share our home with five friendly dogs, two cats, a big garden, and a kind neighbor who teaches Czech. We have a beautiful Mountain View from our balcony, perfect to view while sipping morning coffee and hiking trailheads a short 5 minutes walk.

    Our long-term dream is to turn this place into a welcoming stopover for travelers — but it still needs a lot of love and care, both inside and out.

    We’re looking for easygoing, animal-loving people who are happy to lend a hand. Tasks may include helping out in the garden (weeding, digging, planting) or doing light renovation work around the house (painting, filling cracks, etc.).

    In exchange for about 3 hours of help per day, we offer: A private room and comfy bed, Home-cooked meals, Shower/Bathroom/Laundry, A peaceful atmosphere surrounded by nature.

    If you enjoy quiet places, friendly animals, and good conversation, we’d love to hear from you!
