We moved to Bulgaria to fulfill a dream in Kirilovo - help us with animals and gardening

Description

Hello. We are Angelica and Stefano and we are Italians, and we moved to Bulgaria to fulfill a dream ...We live near the town of Elhovo, 30 km from Turkey, about 100 from the Black Sea and about 320 km from Sofia. Here we arrived with 4 dogs and 2 cats, now we have 20 dogs and 11 cats, 5 goats and 4 hens ... we have lawns with large walnut trees, almonds, mulberries, acacias and I love to plant and care for the plants to make the place more livable also for the avian fauna that passes and stays here. We must manage and care for our dogs and cats, which are all born as street animals, and which we collect and care for as children.
we are looking for someone with good knowledge of manual labor in the garden, carpentry and a great desire to do !!!
.. only will not be allowed smoking (of any kind in caravans) alcohol (excluding beer or wine with meals) and drugs ... thanks and happy life
Angelica and Stefano
