  • Description

    Description

    We are a Czech/American family living in a renovated farmhouse in a small Czech village near Česky Krumlov. We host guests through rental platforms at our bed & breakfast, U Živlů. We do not require help with our BnB but rather need help maintaining the garden and outside area, especially during the summer and fall seasons. Our home has 4 apartments, one where we live and the others we rent out or use as classroom space for teaching English. We have twin toddlers and a snuggly outdoor cat. We love to travel and when we are home, enjoy hosting people from different cultures and backgrounds.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live in a really beautiful area of the Czech Republic, Jihočesky Kraj, near many UNESCO towns and in the middle of the nature-protected park, Blansky les. Since we are in a small town, there are many opportunities to learn about local traditions and practice speaking Czech.

    Help

    We have a big garden and would love your help, especially during harvest season, weeding, picking fruits, and preserving. Also with lawn mowing and trimming trees. As our Bed & Breakfast is really only busy during the summer, we do not require help in this area but it can be nice to meet and hang out with other travelers.

    We have a small English club that we run from our house and would love to occasionally have special guests come and speak, play, and share their culture with the local kids.

    As we live in a reconstructed farmhouse, there is always a lot of maintenance to be done around the house and in the garden. We would like to work on building a greenhouse and an outside bar, using natural materials from our land.
