Description
Hi, I'm Daniel.

I'm running a permaculture farm for more than 3 years now.
It's a very interesting and beautiful place where I have a vegetable garden, an old orchard, chickens, goats, ducks and a hemp field ;)
As you can imagine there is a lot of different jobs in which i need help.
I'm constantly doing some renovations also so join me if you want to experience a whole spectrum of farmlife.

Before i settled on the farm i was building natural houses for a few years. I’m also pedagogue, masseur, yoga teacher (now more fascinated about calisthenic, natural movement and boxing) and i was also a buddhist monk for a year ;P so I can share a lot of my passions with you.

Two weeks passed by as few days and I found very true in what Magda and Daniel said: indeed they are creating own sanctuary - without religion and with a lot of love, patience and curiosity for everyday life and people around.

Although I spent only about a week at Magda and Daniel's farm, I am totally sure I could spend a life there! They are both charming, honest and humble people with a great deal of good sense of humour. My son, Franek (10yrs), also totally loved the place, and after the experience he told me he had just been in paradise.
OK, to make it more… read more
