    Description

    Hello there adventurous souls:)

    My name is Marta, I currently live in a polish town by the Baltic Sea and a German border called Świnoujście, which has the widest beach on the polish coast.

    In exchange for a stay in comfortable bedroom, in a apartment with a sunny balcony. The building is located in the town centre, 15mins walk to the beach, access to a kitchen ( we can share meals, prepare them together or if I'm not there I will leave some produce for you, sorry no meat) access to a bicycle.

    I'm looking for few hours a day (3-4 per day, depending on the job) of help with measuring and fitting in an insulative carpet in my mini camper van, that I'm planning to convert.
    Few years ago I've done a similar job with my old van but sadly I had to let it go, so I'm doing the whole process again, but I don't have so much free time so I need some help.
    In the spare time your free to explore the area, natural reserves, just 20mins cycle there’s some beautiful german seaside towns .
    You can also take a ferry to Sweden, there’s a port here that offers daily crossings, which takes about 8hrs. Berlin is about 3,5 hours away with a train or flixbus.

    There are plenty of cycle lanes, parks, cafes and restaurants. I've returned to this town after 24 years of living abroad and traveling.

    I’m interested in creating a project, combing voice, meditative instruments, electronic music and visual patterns. With appreciation for plant wisdom, nature connection, gardening and community building, as well as conscious movement and authentic expression through intuitive drawing.
    My dream is to create a heart opening space where people can come together and experience nourishing connection.

    I’m looking for independent, creative person with interest and knowledge of renovation/building/upcycling/gardening,,someone handy, reliable and mature.
    It would also be of great help if you would have some knowledge of music software and have a enthusiastic approach to co creating:)
    There might also be other chores, if you like gardening or helping me out in the allotment, also there's a little house with a pull out couch and kitchenette(there's electricity and toilet but no running water, you can shower in the apartment) if you prefer to stay independently in there, to have the whole little house to yourself.

    I believe that im a relaxed, accommodating and easy going person and i would appreciate if the person would treat my place with respect and care as we would be sharing the space. Its important that we both feel comfortable and can develop a mutual understanding and trust, as this project is close to my heart and i would like to surround it with good energy:)

    So if you, dear reader, feel like its something that resonates with you, and you feel the calling of having the opportunity to spend some time by the Baltic coast do get in touch:)

    Many Blessings
    Marta

    You can visit a maritime museum in my home town, explore the seaside towns nearby, in the bigger city Szczecin (1,5 train journey away) there’s plenty of galleries, museums, a lovely philharmonic and many other places of interest. I can teach you some polish, english or german, can offer a sound healing session or give some tips on what to explore in the area.
