    Description

    Hi, I am Zoltán (29) I am a cemical engineer but I won't work any more in industry. I bought a farm in Vargabokor (near Nyíregyháza). I want to create a self sustainable life.
    I am a lazy engineer, usually I work 4-6hours / day and some day do nothing, depend on the mood. I take the things easily.
    About the farm: It is 0,4ha. Half of that acacia forest, other half is an old orchard and grapes. Lots of tipes, Some grapes tipe so old that not even allowed to plant nowadays. So it exist only in old gardens like this.
    I have no neighbours. The farm is 300m away from the village.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I think who want to come help to creating this self-sustainable life, those already see the problems of the modern society.

    I only expect 4 hours work/day and 5 days/week

    Building projects:
    - Some smaller projects like: fence repair or supported for grapes, make small path or gates.
    - Fruit dryer

    Garden:
    Almost always ripen somthing and have to collect them. Not just fruits but flovers for tee or seeds for next year. The fruits have to conserv . I prefer drying but still lot of work to get out the seeds.

    If you more like cooking and other household work that is also an option.I don't like cook and I am okay without that but still would be a nice help if the household work not take my energy.

    What else ...

    Is a direct train from Budapest to Nyíregyháza (3hour). Then have bus to Vargabokor but I have a car so I can bring you to my farm. The city is 10km away. ~half hour by bike.

    Here is a "kunhalom" just 3km away. It is an ancient tumb, but it looks like a big hill and you can't go inside.
    Here have the bigest zoo in the country but I dont know what kind of compared to other countries. (Need a whole day to watch everything there)
