Description
Hi friends, family and wandering souls,
This place has a strong energy so I don't even know where to start. The project to make this an amazing living space have been started 4-5 years ago and I've been in and out with it, leaving twice to live in a busy city but my love of nature has been calling me back so this will be my 3rd start here. The 3rd sun.
My goal right now is to create an organized, clean, minimalist and cozy home with a functioning garden. I have a fairly big land which was mostly been neglected in the last decade and I am a beginner gardener, so we especially looking for helpers who are not afraid to give a full effort to make this possible.
I read a quote just yesterday: "The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just the body, but the soul." and it made me realize that I still have a deep wish to be in nature, so I will continue this project (2021.09) and will do my best to answer all your beautiful letters.
A little bit about myself and the life I live: I'm a strange person, first of all :) I can be very extrovert but I deplete my social energies quickly and I rather be alone then. My work is very much like that. I spend time with computers and that means there would a part in a day where you would have be by your beautiful self. In general I like human beings and I'm interested in how each persons thinks, feels and creates their lives and workaways has been a great learning experience for me.
My main interests are meditation, shamanism, dreams, music, yoga, psychology, painting, photography, cinema and vegan lifestyle. Basically anything that helps me to understand life and the dhamma or nature that surrunds us. I'm striving to be on a path to learn how to live in more harmonious ways with nature. I also love music and have some musical instruments like guitars, drums, a handpan and flutes around the house. Professionally I'm also interested in math, patterns, harmony, algorithmic trading, A.I, cryptocurrencies, python and data analysis. I also really want to learn to sing, martial arts and body movements, to be a healthy body.
A small black dog called Szeder is living with me :)

My aspiration is to live a simple, vegan, minimalist, as trash free as possible lifestyle close to nature, in a calm, aware, harmonious environment. Where self-understanding and growth are in continuous focus.

If you join my little family I expect you to keep your surrounding clean and maintain an eye for orderliness and beauty. I am also doing my best to live by these principles as much as I can.
In the garden, the work is mostly cleaning the bushes, planting trees and plants. Creating a living space for the vegetation and creating sustainable systems. I would especially welcome you if you are an experienced gardener because this is something that I intend to learn.
In the house many refurbishments have been done so it is in a good shape now, however, there is still plenty to do. We are planning to repaint the inside completely (almost done) also to install water collecting systems and various building projects and handy work like a tool shed next to the house and a balcony fence, possibly some palette furniture etc. If you have experience in any of these fields definitely contact me.Languages

What else ...
The house itself is in a winery area even though the locals call it "sober valley"... :) It is mainly surrounded with nature and peace and just removed a little from society. The local town is easily reachable, about 8 minutes walking and the closest city Győr, about 20 to 25 minute bus ride. There is an 1000+ year old active monastery with an amazing botanic garden close by and the forest is just in our backyard. We are also in a close proximity of 3 capital cities of Budapest, Vienna and Bratislava.
I've been on a vegan lifestyle for years and that is what I can offer. Usually we cook a bigger portion and eat that for a couple of days but some days we just grab a snack a go on. So you definitely have to be self-sufficient and understand how to feed yourself from the basic materials that I can offer. I'm open to learn and if you also cook that usually works out great.
All conditioned things are impermanent - when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.
