Description
Our family is creating a beautiful place to retreat from the town, we live in a calm village between Marijampolė and Kaunas. Our family is interested in healthy life, nature, healing and spirituality. We have a land with 4 buildings, garden and sauna (we're still building it) near our small pond where you can swim or fish. Our family, me Milda 25y, my brother Simas 24y, my mother Rita 56y and my father Rimantas 63y, are living and working between our home in Marijampole and this place. Sometimes here comes our friends, relatives or workers to help us or just to visit. We need help with building tasks, we would appreciate people with building skills but also everybody who are interested and willing to help, if you have your own ideas how you can help us, we are open to hear them, don't hesitate to share them and your skills. At the moment, we are fixing our house for guests, creating sauna and next beautiful project with who I would like to have help is to create a cozy bohemian place in our attic, but at first, we need to insulate the walls ;) Also, there are a lot of small general maintenance tasks. We already put a lot of work in our homestead, but there're still many things how we can improve it and make even more beautiful, and we hope you would like to be part of this :) We are very curious to meet people from different countries, hear stories, and share our knowledge and culture with each other. It's very good way how to broaden our horizons, be more open-minded and learn how to share and accept help from others.
