    Description

    Hi, I have an old stone house with 3 hectares of land with 2 sheep and a heramaphrodite goat.

    We are small family. I am mother of one 10y old son and that frankly is our family. We do not live in the place yet but spend there quite a big amount of our time.

    The house and the land is in small village Mlynařovice (about 30 inhabitans) in the natural prohibited area of Šumava mountains (CHKO Šumava) about 10 kilometres far from the national park Šumava itself. That means that the area is beatiful but not overcrowded. Our village Mlynářovice is about 7 km from Volary and 16 from Prachatice.

    There is lot of tiny and big projects going on in which I need enthusiastc contribution and different ankle of view of other people. HELP is WELCOMED and VANTED! I have one room to stay in, but there is no elektricity in that room right now. In the house we have in pipes just an usage water. There is an electricity in other parts of house and the wifi everywhere, depends on the thocknes of walls The drinking water we take from the village source and carry it in barrels.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I expect that by hosting different people I get different perspectives to make things.
    I will benefit from the exchange by keeping me not stubborn in my life.

    While making food inside or outside, I hope to share the thoughts.

    I am a beginner as a host, I am more curious and opened about the process. I informed myself by some friends who were living life of workawayers for a few years, so I do have information to practice.
