Description

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing great! :)

I am 29y.o. and coming from Slovakia.

The desire for adventures was always inside of me and therefore after 4 years of full-time working I made a decision to hit the road again!

I don't like to travel without a purpose, just to check mark a country from a list. I prefer to take things slowly, get to know the local people and try to dig deeper into the local culture. In exchange I always want to give something back, for all the hospitality and warm welcome I receive. This is the reason for me to join Workaway again after a long 4 year break.

I am an open-minded, happy, hard working and easy going team worker with attention to details who is not afraid of work and new challenges.

I'm a very active person and I hate standing still. I enjoy and appreciate nature a lot whilst hiking, camping or cycling and I love all kind of sports.

I have already worked as a volunteer in Sweden, Russia, Montenegro, Georgia, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Morocco so I have numerous experience with volunteering and I know what it takes and also what it brings :)

I'd also love to meet other like minded travelers to share our experiences, thoughts, dreams and stories))

I can fluently communicate in Slovak, Czech, English, Polish and Russian.

Hope to see you soon and have a good day! :)

When I look back and think about my travels around Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan), my 2 and half weeks in Kulan were amongst the best experiences I had there. The most authentic way how to get to know Kazakhstan or basically any other country is to spend time with locals and see how the locals live (especially on the … read more countrysides in villages and smaller towns). That is one if the biggest reasons why I love workaway and this workaway provides exactly that!
You will stay in a small town where there is not much happening but it is a great place to relax and to see how the locals live. Probably it is better if you come with someone else if you can get bored easily alone (I do not so for me it was good just by myself hah).
The work itself is nice and really rewarding because the kids are just amazing and they want to learn a lot + they are almost always full of energy and they really do enjoy their classes. It is a great feeling when you can help them to improve. You will have classes with different age groups and different levels so it is not a monotonous work. You will have all the books ready and provided by the school so it is easy to prepare for each lesson (you can just follow the plan or you can also add something differnt if you feel like that could help them to improve - you will have your freedom when it comes to that). In comparison with other ,,workaways,, you will probably work bit more but also as I stated above it is a rewarding job. The administrator at the school is just so lovely (as everybody there). She always brought or bought something for me, was always interested in my needs and if I am doing alright and so on. The one thing worth mentioning is that I would recommend you to speak some Russian before going there (it is super helpful). However, if you speak some Russian and want to improve or want to learn some, this is the place! Because sometimes it makes the life way more easier.
The housing is nice as you have your own room in a modern house with a big garden full of apples and also WiFi. Another thing to mention is that there is not a toilet in the house but you need to go outside to the latrine (no worries you will get used to that pretty fast I promise :D). Also there is not a shower inside of the house. However, outside of the house there is a ,,russian banya,, (sauna kind of thing) where you can shower.

I think I wrote more than enough but if you guys (possible volunteers) want to know more, just lemme know:)

Overall, my stay in Kulan was unforgettable and I am super thankful for that possibility. Thank you so much for treating me so nicely, providing me with everything I needed and even helping me beyond the Workaway after I finished my stay. I am forever grateful! Take care and good luck with everything!

Adam :)

Just came back home from Central Asia so I finally have some spare time to leave a feedback.

This hostel is as chill as you can imagine and I'm not talking only about the volunteering experience and tasks but also about the place in general. It's exactly the kind of hostel I really like to spend time in: big spacious house with even bigger garden and nice common area where you cannot help yourself but really feel like at home. Add few … read more

It was only two weeks for me but those 2 weeks were truly unforgettable. If you've been travelling for a longer period of time and you already feel a bit homesick just go to the hostel and you'll feel like at home almost immediately in that spacious house with huge garden and chilled out atmosphere)) During my time in Martvili the season was … read more

Adam is a very sociable, talkative person. He has a great contact with anybody he meets. He was helpful, observing the rules and willing to help. We had loads of laughs together and spent lovely time in Udabno. I would definitely recommend Adam as a volunteer, especially for those who are working with people. He has loads of patience and we would … read more

Udabno is a special place which I fell in love with pretty quickly. Village located in the middle of nowhere where you can do and experience so much! Working hours and days off were flexible so you can easily discuss that with them and travel around during your free time:)
Also there's a possibility of going horse riding which I unfortunately … read more

It was a pleasure to host Adam. We had much in common and I often felt I was looking at a younger version of myself. Adam is bright, fastidious and willing to tackle the challenging and the mundane tasks asked of him. Nothing but praise and appreciation. I hope we'll meet again.

Ooooh.. how much I miss this place! I do not even know where to start with my feedback. I'm not going to write a lot since I reckon that nobody is going to read such a long feedback but you need to know that the School is probably the best place/host/organisation (or however you want to call it) here on Workaway!
