Hey, Hola, Szia!
Come and join us in the beautiful Hungarian countryside. We manage a herbal tea house and garden in north Hungary Bér (3045).
Currently, we are in the middle of building a herbal tea house that is part of a traditional Hungarian peasant house. We live near to the biggest forest in the North of Hungary and located at the foothills of the Cserhat mountain range . There is a vast range of biodiversity here, the forest is rich with mushrooms and many medicinal herbs.
I live /weekend papa mode/ with two children Zsofi (26 months) and Panka (4.4 yrs old) I am a herbalist and interior designer. Currently, I am working on refurbishing our traditional local farmhouse with traditional techniques in order to protect the main design and structure of the house.
