    Description

    Hello everyone, I am Kiwi (nickname) and Dana, we are each 52 years old, we have been a married couple for many years. We are entrepreneurs with a flexible and dynamic schedule. We have a house in a village near Timișoara (which is now the European Capital of Culture 2023) where we would like to receive helpers with minimal skills.You are welcome to share some time with us 😊, please read all this before writing and contact us ready to share info 😉. I like interacting people, willing to pay attention to each other, so if interested be ready to actively chat and give evidence that you read us.

    The mission we want to share is to transform a piece of land into a graceful garden, so we are looking forward to having magical, reliable and interesting guests to help us a lot (one at a time)! We hope that those who will help will be willing to learn and help and have a good eye for detail.

    We are hoping for helpers who are not too fussy eaters as we enjoy sharing food with people who can and like to eat a bit of everything including meat so sorry but it would be impossible for us to have vegetarian guests or vegans.
    I love working with people from all over the world.
    Teaching a language is about culture, about telling stories, and more.

    The experience of living in another country is a once in a lifetime experience…
    Thank you.
