Description
We are family with 5 kids. We are christian missionaries from Russia.
We have recently moved into a new apartment and are looking for friendly and practical people who would like to help us with some renovation and improvement projects.
There are a variety of tasks, including repairing and painting walls, fixing and restoring windows, assembling furniture, and other general DIY jobs around the apartment. If you enjoy hands-on work and have some basic renovation or maintenance skills, we'd be happy to welcome you.
In return, we offer a comfortable place to stay, a friendly family atmosphere, and the opportunity to experience local life while helping us create our new home. -

Accommodation
We recently moved to a new apartment, and we are slowly renovating it and making it our home.
I live here with my wife and our five children. For volunteers, we offer a separate private room in the apartment of two friends from our church. They are kind, respectful and well-mannered people.
The volunteer will have a private room and share the kitchen and bathroom with the hosts. The apartment is about 30 minutes by bus from the city center, in a beautiful and peaceful area with a wonderful view from the window.
At the moment, there is no Wi-Fi in the apartment, but there is internet available at the place where I usually work and spend my time.
We are not a commercial organization, so the accommodation is very simple and home-like. We appreciate volunteers who are comfortable with a quiet, respectful and family-oriented environment.
As in our home, we do not allow smoking, alcohol or drugs. We also ask everyone to avoid swearing and to treat other people with respect. -
What else ...
Bus station is very close , you have a bus every 10 minutes to city center
