I am a mother of three daughters (grown up), and as we are also fostering two boys (16 years old) right now, we need all kinds of help around the house and the garden. We are very nature-loving people, we like spending time with our family who have a lot of kids and animals (goats, donkey, chicken, dogs, cats, cows,...).

We are a multi-culti family, living in a three-generations house, we love making bonfire, which is a typical hungarian habit. Almost our whole family lives in this small, hidden village (50 habitants) so there are a lot of children and there is always something happening and action (trips, excursions, barbecue, swimming in the lake Balaton,...). You can also improve your german or spanish skills with us :-)
Obudavár is surrounded by forests and meadows, so if you love nature,peace and family, you will have a lovely time with us.

We need help around the house, like building, decorating, renovating, cleaning, cooking... . If you like gardening - like we love!! - you are welcome to help us with the vegetable patches.

Mary and her family are very interesting people. They are very kind, free, kind of life artists. Our kids had a great time. Natasha was good at teaching marketing, she was a really good student who absorbed knowledge and new information effectively. The place is a peace island with beautiful surroundings and close to Lake Balaton.
Thank you so… read more
