    Description

    Hello adventurous stranger! My name is Annamaria. I live alone in an old train station with 2 cats.
    Come and help me with an epic renovation project in the heart of Hungary. This magical, 120 years old historical building is located in a small village, Galosfa, next to the forest and lakes.
    I would like to create a home, art studio, and off-grid community space.

    The building is big, so I would be extremely happy to have someone who is handy with house renovation :) I desperately need some help with every project possible around house renovation and planting.
    Others task are waiting for working hands, cleaning up the garden from dried branches, general tidy up before the spring comes.

    There are loads of stuff in the house that needs organizing, furniture needs to be built and rooms to tidy up. I need help with every kind of work, house renovation, plumbing, tiling, carpentry and more. For example, there is a wonderful wooden staircase needs sanding and re painting :)

    From easy to complicated, there is every kind of challenge I can offer. ;)


    It’s planting season soon and it’s time for planning and planting with a permaculture mindset.
    I would like to build an outside shower and a compost toilet, make a fence, greenhouse and a tree house…
    There are various projects and activities that could be set up with motivation and teamwork :)

    I can provide a room with a comfy bed and one tasty, healthy cooked meal a day.
    I would like daily four to five hours of help, five days a week :).

    Message me if you are ready to join an epic renovation project in a beautiful and natural environment.

    In your free time, there is a beautiful forest to explore, a star observatory close by, and a lovely city 20 minutes away from Kaposvar. If you can drive you can use my car to explore the area.
    There are more wild animals than people at my place so it is a real rural getaway paradise.
