Description
Welcome to my space! My goal is to create products like no one else striving for nothing less than perfection in my work, knowing that it requires dedication and meticulous effort.
While my primary focus is on the conservation of products, there will still be occasional opportunities to clean some cabins. The activities you will help me with include:
- Sweeping and mopping the floors, both inside and outside.
- Changing sheets and making beds for guests.
- Vacuuming the carpet and tidying up the living areas.
- Washing dishes and maintaining cleanliness in the kitchen.
- Cutting and stacking wood for heating and food preparation.
- Assisting with the conservation process, including packaging and labeling.
- Collecting fruits and wild mushrooms for preservation.
- Participating in recipes testing and feedback sessions.
- Helping with fishing or cleaning freshly caught fish when applicable.
- Cleaning tools and materials for food preservation.
- Cleaning and organizing the workspace for optimal efficiency
During your free time, you can paddle on the lake, explore the beautiful woods, or fish. I also make trips to nearby cities such as Timisoara, Lugoj, Făget, and Fârdea, offering a chance to explore these vibrant places. There's always something to engage in, but relaxation and enjoyment are core aspects of this experience.
I provide food and shelter in exchange for help, as well as the Romanian minimum wage, which is currently higher than 3 euros per hour..
My cooking skills can accommodate various diets, including vegetarian and vegan options, as I understand and respect everyone's needs.
With a background in psychology and two years of experience working with people, I pride myself on being empathetic and understanding. I am an active, hard-working individual passionate about exploration, learning, and personal growth in both practical and spiritual realms.
This environment is perfect for those who seek time for introspection, new recipes (with foraged food) and cool people. I wish you a wonderful time wherever your journey takes you!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Romania has many wonderful places, and this is one of them. We are surrounded by forests, and we have a lake nearby where we can swim. The neighbors can be fun sometimes, and the community here is united. You'll get to visit cities as well, allowing you to compare the differences between the people of the lake and those who live in the city

Help
I own three cabins near Lake Surduc. Sometimes, people come to organize parties and all kinds of events. When this happens, my job is to keep the place clean and ensure the guests have a great time. However, the main activity is preservation, foraging, and cooking various products, which includes searching for wild food, cleaning it, helping me cook it, then preserving and delivering it to people.

Accommodation
You'll stay in one of the 3 cabins, depends on which one is free. You'll have enough space for everything you want to do here. We have wifi so you can always stay connected with your family and friends. Sometimes you'll be alone, but most of the time I'll be there too. I eat all types of food and if you have any preferences I can provide you everything you need. It would be better if you like fish too, because we have plenty here.
What else ...
You will not have to work everyday, so when you're free, you can go wherever you want as long as you come back in time. Trains are cheap here but we also have apps with people that can take you to some places. the nearest train station from the cabin is at 30 km away.
