    Description

    I am a mother of two sons, work in healthcare, and live in Ljubljana with my family. I also own an apartment and a small house in Bohinj, a beautiful alpine valley near Triglav National Park, with lakes, rivers, and mountains nearby.

    We are looking for young people or families to help with gardening (vegetables like potatoes, beans, salad, garlic), DIY projects, light painting. My husband is skilled in woodworking and we would appreciate extra help. Creative ideas for decorating are also welcome!

    We can exchange meals, including Spanish and Slovenian dishes, and there are plenty of hiking opportunities nearby. Language exchange is welcome—I’m preparing for a C1 Spanish exam and would like to improve spoken Swedish and German.

    You’ll have your own apartment in the village center, access to bikes, and plenty of books. If you have a van we can find you a place to park. We’ll stay in touch via WhatsApp.

    In summer, hosting is only possible if you have a van or similar, as all my places are rented.
