Description
We are a zionist couple from mixed origins , both artists , who settled in the Negev 22 years ago . We have a passion for the desert and to make it a livable place. We like to host and make travellers feel welcome and we like to meet new people . Our children are grown and finding their place in world and preferably in Israël. We have made a green and sustainable farmstead where we grow organic vegetables with the challenging climate conditions. We need help maintaining the garden and property and taking care of the cat and dogs while we are away. There is plenty of space and time to explore the nature and the archeological sites surrounding us while you are with us. We like to cook and bake and enjoy conversations and cultural differences with a healthy meal. Exchange visions and life stories and we can share our experiences if you want to know about Jewish culture and the Hebrew lanquage.
