  • Description

    Description

    My family is me (Martin, 35), my girlfriend (Veronica, 36), and our two sons. I am a natural builder, and she is a woman of my heart. We are building our dream house, and we would be happy for any help. We love nature, and the way to improve our way of life, happiness, and inner growth is very important for us. We also like to do creative things like different types of art, and so on.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You can learn about different techniques of traditional/modern building. Like working with wood, clay, straw, stone, sheep wool, and other materials. I have some experience with permaculture design and natural building, so I can tell you everything I know. We can also show you some interesting natural buildings around. For example, a house made from moon wood and a traditional wooden roof. The place is located in the middle of a natural reservation, so there's plenty of nature around. Mainly large forests and lakes. It's located 750m above sea level. Veronica is also a great herbalist, so she can share what to pick and use for self-healing.

    Help

    We are looking for volunteers to help us with the building of our new home. We are building a small house in a small village in the middle of the hilly countryside. We are using permaculture principles and natural materials to build the house. Also, we want to keep the traditional old design of the region. We had already built almost everything. So now it's a journey of stone walls and pavements around the house. Also, some gardening and wood for winter is our main task to do.
