Description
Hi there! :-) We are a family of five: Jane, George, John (2 YO) + 2 dogs: Amy and Fox. We live in a small village 25km from the historical city of Olomouc, where we grew up and lived until adulthood. We took part in building of our house and we started our permacultural garden on a green field. We spent many years improving our home, but we're still far from finished and some bigger projects are continually being postponed. We are not only looking for manpower but also for company. :-) We love meeting new people and listening to their life stories.
