Description
URGENT (to feed animals and staying on property).
The land is based in small village Hrastovec in Slovenia.
It is a paradise for the most abused animals on earth - farm animals. There live rescued pigs, chickens, hens, cows, rabbits, sheep, goats, ducks, geese...
It is also a land of peace for all wildlife and a place of kind gardening and maintaing the nature in her beauty.
Workawaying here is based on simple life.
My name is Ksenija, I am the mother of 3 kids, working as a waldorf teacher. On a land in Hrastovec are living my 50 rescued animals. Most of the time I am away and I do need reliable person or a couple who's main task is giving animals food and water (2 hours of work a day). You live in a tiny house, have your own room and share bathroom and kitchen with other volunteer (or me if I am there).

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Living in a quiet place in the countryside surrounded by animals, focused on how they behave and communicate can be a very enriching experience for people who want to experiment a life more connected to nature in the most simple way. To see happy pigs, hear their stories, cuddle chickens, make photos of sunset and cows is amazing. It is a paralell world where animals are truly happy.
You have a lot of privacy and time for your self. Great opportunity for couples!
