We are Csilla and Martin working on a Semi off Grid Homestay in the beautiful hills of Zala County Hungary. Working towards a completely self sustainable and eco friendly life style. Between us we are TEFL qualified , Mechanical engineering, food and garden engineer, we have visited 100s of major cities spanning more than 23 countries covering Asia Europe Russia Australia and South America, we believe that life is a one time opportunity and are happy to share everything we have learned over the years with the people we meet and we can't wait for our next adventure with you.
Unfortunately we lost a very close family member at the end of last year and we were unable to answer any questions or emails that were sent to us, we apologise for the lack of communication over the past few Months.

We are big food lovers so you will be able to learn to create a host of Hungarian foods and learn to cook on an open fire Hungarian style. You are not expected to work every day or all day , just some help is all we need and there are a host of great things to do locally, flee markets local food markets, walking streets, cafes, forest walks and lakes.
