  Description

  Dear workawayers,
  we would love to welcome you in our home!
  
  We are a family of four - me, Katerina (29 years old), my husband, Tomas (33 years old), our son, Albert (2 years) and our little daughter, Beata (less than one year).
  
  We live in a beautiful place close to a small village. It is kind of a hamlet, which means there are just five houses around us. No direct neighbours. Our house is located about 1 km from the village, which enables us to be in touch with our friends. There is a bus connection to the village from adjacent town.
  
  
  I used to be a Workawayer during my studies. I visited two times Germany and one time Austria. I have promised myself, one day I will offer the same hospitality and kindness I have recieved. And now it's the time!
  
  
  We have a huge garden and so many plans! I am a passionate gardener and so Tomas has built a greenhouse for me. Last year we grew a lot of vegetables, so that we didn't have to buy anything during the season. It's a lot of work, but also a lot of fun!
  Last year Tomas bought two beehives and we are pretty excited about it this year.
  We also have a small pond with some fish.
  At home we keep earthworms in our vermicompost. We also have two cats.
  The main plans for this year are as follows: build a hen-house and buy hens, grow as many vegetables as possible, make some events for people from neighbourhood and dry meat (it's also Tomas's big hobby).
  
  If you stay with us, you will be accomodated separately in the old house, which we renovated a little. It's a bit old-school, but it has its own bathroom and kitchen :-).
  
  We would like you to help us with the general maintenance, cooking, gardening, baby-sitting... it depends on the season.
  
  Since I am at home with the children we can always plan something together.
  There are also definitely some nice places all around to visit - beer city Pilsen (30 km), Prague (80 km), castle Kozel (20 km) and many others...
  
  I speak English and German, Tomas both a little. We are eager to meet new people and learn about them and their culture and cuisine. We love new recipes! And we are also a coffee-lovers!
  
  We would be really happy if you choose our family. If you are travelling with your partner or a friend, it's great!
  
  If you have any questions, feel free to send us a message! :-)
  We are looking forward to you!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We have a lot of young families around us, which means you can meet a lot of people with some English level (at least I hope so :-). Our families are also living close to us, which means you can visit them with us.
  We would like to share with you the passion for countryside, for garden and for nature. We'd love to meet people for deep conversations about anything.
  
  We would like to learn from you about your culture and opinions. Nowadays we are not travelling that much with the little kids, so that we would like to bring another culture to our home.
