  Description

  Hey, I am Kata, for years I was volunteering with workaway -together with my daughter born in 2018. Last summer I bought a land close to Szeged, where we were spending summers. I like the ideas of synergic gardening -but I have only read it in books-, I was volunteering at permacultures, but all of them were way too much work to do for a single mom...so I am looking for ways to do some lazy permaculture gardening.
  What I have seen last year, that there are already enough fruit trees on my land, and on the abandonned gardens next to it, to keep us well provided with fruit from mid-June to September, and I know the plants to make pesto with...so it's a nice step one in lazy gardening :)
  
  Among plans for this summer is building a pizza oven, possibly a sun drier and some geo domes to be able to buy more tools and have them somewhere stored.
  
  One important hing, at the moment project is very new and situation is quite nomade: to get water you have to pump from a well and to take shower, you can take it only out side with cold or sun warm water...I am planning to develop all this...but it takes time and I might only arrive by the end of summerv-since on very hot days I don't want to work.
  
  Other important thing, I am nudist and I have nudist friends, that means that when the weather allows I like to be without clothes and I might have friends arriving who do the same. You don't need to follow our example, just don't be surprised about it -I think our few neighbours are getting used to :P
  
  Also, since I only ask for an hour or two of help, or even none if you don't feel like, I am happy with your company as well, I don't provide you your food -but you can take any of the things that grow on the land-, but I do provide a bike for the volunteer(s), since the closest bigger shop is 5 km away.
  
  No dogs, and no smokers. Thanks for understanding and respecting it.

  What else ...

  Not very hot days, we would be staying in the garden with you, when weather is very hot you can go to Sziksos tó lake -we will be going there-, to cool off.
  You can also go and enjoy Szeged, that is only 12 km with nice bike road and direct buses.
