  Description

  About Us:
  Hello future Workawayers!
  
  We are Éva and Richard, a Hungarian-English couple passionate about art, architecture, painting, travel and music. We love exploring cultures and languages, and collectively we speak English, French, Italian, Romanian, Hungarian, and a little Spanish and Portuguese.
  
  We live in a charming small town in a Hungarian ethnic area of Romania, situated on a quiet street close to the town center. Our home is a large house with a beautiful garden.
  
  We look forward to hearing from you and sharing our home with a caring Workawayer!

  What else ...

  We are half hour drive from a bigger town where you can find everything you are looking for in a big city. In the town we live in you will find essentials on a short walk (post office, food and clothes shops, cash machine, restaurants, coffee shops). In our place you will find a combination of a nice rural area and a town too. We have a big farmers market every Wednesday.
  
  This is a very safe and friendly area. While most local people primarily speak Hungarian, many younger residents speak some English. People here are generally very helpful and welcoming. Knowledge of Hungarian would be a significant advantage when we make our selection, as it will greatly enhance your interaction with the community and our family.

  Tigi (8 years)

  Meet Tigi, our darling one-eyed wonder cat! She's a incredibly kind and friendly outdoors cat who absolutely loves a bit of affection. Tigi is remarkably smart – she really seems to sense your mood and knows her name well. You'll often find her being quite funny, sometimes doing little hops when she runs, and she's a joy to watch as she explores the garden. If you're spending time outside, she'll likely be right there, keeping you company. While she enjoys trying to sneak indoors, she has her own safe, warm cat-room where she spends cold nights when needed. The best part? No litter box duty for you – she's a very clean cat who prefers to do her business outdoors!
