Description
Welcome to the Slovenias beautiful rurals, where I reside with awesome rescue animals, 4 cats named Artemis, Luna, Yuri and the latest kitten Frodo and on the other side 2 rescued dogs, Nala and Carlo.
What you will get here is a peaceful stay, with the possibility of a ton of cuddles with animals, beautiful morning sunrises and wonderful sunsets all over the sky.
The house is located in the forest, so you are waking up with a bedview on trees and hearing the songs of birds.
We are right next to the climbing wall Kotečnik so if you are a climbing enthusiast, this is something for you also.Types of help and learning opportunities

The house in the forest is a perfect way to connect more with your self and the nature around you. It offers you a peaceful way to go trough your stay.
But would you want some more social interactions or check out the city, you can go with me to the City Capital where I go twice a week for 5-6 hours and check out Ljubljana by your self. There is a lot of things you can do there. On the other hand, beautiful old city of Celje is a 25min drive away where you can check the history and see wonderful buildings.
Once a month I organise a Work-party event with my friends where we do things around the eastate and then hang out afterwards having picnic or BBQ out on the open with a beatiful view on the surrounding forest and hills.
The skills you can learn from me are more of a Corporate and Mental health nature. I bought the eastate in 2021 as one of my main Goals before being 30 while working in largest Slovenias companies. Currently I work in one of the biggest European banks as a Campaign manager, so you can learn things marketing wise - we can even check your CV if you would wish to or be interested to focus on that.
Overall with the estate I have learnt a ton of different skills and this is where I wish to expand my knowledge.
So you don't know on how to do something around the house? Don't worry, we will figure it out together:).Help
Workawaying here for you would mean doing things around the house and mostly outside, for example mostly landscaping the trees and plants, cutting wood and transfering items from one side of the space to the other, picking up ripe fruits and collecting herbs (we have a ton of different natural hearbs growing below the house on their own). You can dry the herbs in house or on the sun and take some for your self on your next trip of course:). Tasks would be done by you, I would of course show you everything before hand so you get familiar with the surroundings, but then they are your responsibility, also on when and how much time per day you dedicate to it - as long as the ones we pick up for you to do are done by the finish of your stay.
On occasion also pet-sitting while you are here if I am not home - taking the dogs out to the yard, giving pets food and water.Languages

The house is separated in two appartments. In both appartments there are animals, walking freely around the house. I mostly spend my time in the appartment below.
You will have a larger room in the upper part of the house for your self, with access on the balcony with a beautiful view on the forest right in front of you. The room has a comfortable couch bedding, a few wardrobes to store your items, a table and a chair and a very small kitchenette where you can cook simple meals and store food that doesn't need refrigerating. It also includes a fire place in case you would feel cold. Your room has a key, if you feel the need to lock your self in it.
The facilities (toilet and shower - bathroom) is in the bottom appartment.
Basic food supplies like pasta, tomato sauces, rice, soya sauce, potatoes, herbs etc will be provided by me. I cook a few times per day and make food to eat for several times. You are also invited to cook your self, either up in your room or down in the kitchen.
The estate also offers the posibility for you to camp, basicaly right on the natures step. Unfortunately I currently dont know where my tent and bedding is, but we could found it out together if you would wish to camp, or just bring yours over:).What else ...
The only way go transport here is by car, except if you like walking - the nearest bus station is a one hour walk from here (steep roads) and takes you to Žalec or Celje, two bigger cities around here.
On the other side of the hills you also have Laško, which is known for its Thermana Laško where they have that special water. Accesible also by car, but I can gladly take you upon further notice.
As mentioned you can also go with me to Ljubljana in your free time and check out the Capitals wonders.
Living my life on my own on this huge estate can sometimes get a bit messy as there is always someone that needs something. So the dishes may not be always cleaned up rightaway, though the bathroom needs to always be spotless - dont worry:). I do have a very low set of dishes in order for them to not pile up, and in general try to live in a more minimalistic ways, though items from the past tend to pile up in one of the estates rooms near the garage. I'll gladly show you:).
Smoking is okay but outside. Inside smoking is prohibited.A little more information
