    Description

    We are a couple, not young. We work in the city and live on a small farm. Our pets are several horses and dogs from the shelter. We got them in poor condition, with damage and we have helped them to recover. Our farm is not a business, but just a quiet cozy place to live away from the bustle of the city. We are looking for a helper, for someone who can stay with us for a long time.

    What do we provide for our helper:

    - Accommodation. Sea container was converted into a house. It has a gas stove, shower, washing machine, etc.
    - We buy foodstuffs and you cook for yourself.
    - Internet access free (limited)
    - Medical insurance and assistance in obtaining a residence permit in our country for long-term visitors

    If you are over 25 years old, you love animals and like to live on a farm, are hard working, responsible and flexible - you are welcome.
