I am over the moon that this was my very first workaway experience.House of the Rising Fun is a pefect example of heaven on earth.The Rhodope mountains and surrounding places to visit are truly Magical and otherworldly.The energy here is still pure ,the unspoiled wilderness will mesmerize you and take you on a nostalgic journey back to a time when… read more the planet was abundant and flourishing.A Fairytale landscape ,Batak Lake is breathtaking ,especially when the magical mist sweeps through the valleys.Dense forests ,mountains ,horses,cows,picturesque villages and windy roads through a land of ancient history of true Freedom fighters will make you fall in Love with this place.If the experience of living in a traditional peaceful mountain village is what you are looking for , then this is the place for you.The pace here is much slower and calm, the villagers are very friendly, jolly and welcoming.Freddie is an amazing,wise,playful,easy going,respectful and inspiring beautiful soul.He walks the talk and has welcomed me into his world with open arms and an open heart.I spent three unforgettable weeks here and felt at home instantly.Vigren, Doncho, Laila (the supercute dogs) and Stilkie (the cat that thinks he is a dog) are such gentle and loving animals,anyone would adore them.Seeing the dogs live a free life here is very refreshing and eye opening.Going for walks with them is such a wonderful experience,they are so well behaved off the lead and their social interations with the other village dogs is not often witnessed in western cultures.I would not describe the work i did here as "work" as it was all so joyful and lots of Fun.These are the activities i did whilst co-living at the House of the rising Fun : cooking,baking,preserving food,cleaning,chopping wood,plastering,foraging,exploring,having deep conversations,truth seeking,journeying,walking the dogs,exploring Magical places like the lake,mountains and hotsprings,meeting Freddie's friends and locals,socializing,going to local community events,seeing the "real" traditional Bulgaria,making fire in the woodstove and cooking with it (makes amazing pizzas and bread),playing with the animals and plenty of fussing,lots of laughter,Fun,joy,understanding,peaceful existence,laid back environment,wednesday market on the doorstep,composting...and so much more.I slept in a beautiful bedroom with a log burner in it ,separate from the main house,giving me my own space and privacy .The whole three weeks here was an absolute pleasure ,Freddie's philosophy of life and way of living is spot on.I have found a dear friend with endless similarities and a place that feels like home.I will be back 😁
