Description
Hi, I am Cici.
We're family living in the old wooden house, in the rural part of Poland 2km away from town in amazingly beautiful forest. Meadows full of herbs, forest full of mushroom and forest fruit, biodynamic garden: this is what our life is made of. We have passion for living, for traveling for art.
We need help with finishing our project (construction of workshop place where people will be able to share their knowledge and skills in whatever they're good at).
We need also help to take care of our garden, prepare firewood for winter. We would love to have help in making make preserves for winter from fruits, vegetables, hearbs etc.
There are many beautiful mountain trails that you can explore, there are natural parks and nature reserves around. You can wind down in the nature, breathe the fresh air and walk in the old Carpathian Forest!
There are many tourist attractions (near Szczawnica, the nearest town) f.ex: rafting on Dunajec or traditional rafting with rafters, bicycle routes, castels, shepherds that produce traditional polish cheese and many many others.
