Description
Hi there!
We are Ági and Vencel, an art-loving, culture-oriented, and nature-appreciating couple from Hungary.
Our goals and aspirations:
As young adults, we want to learn to take care of ourselves, each other and our environment. We both want to lead creative and reflective lives, and to do so we want to equip ourselves with the right knowledge and vision.
We live in the busy city of Budapest, and we want to take a break from this environment, and our everyday lives to get new perspectives and fresh ideas. We would like to join new people or a family in an environment very different from our own.
We think that Workaway's system of helping someone with essentially physical tasks over a shorter period of time seems to be a good basis for this! In our free-time, we would like to do as much journaling, drawing, self-expression, and traveling on weekends as possible.
A little about us:
Ági is a university student studying screenwriting, working for a film magazine. She specializes in Hungarian neo-avant-garde cinema.
Since high school, writing has been her main medium. She likes things which are logical. This is reflected in her love of chess (and she's good at it!) and is open to any card game at any time. Shes favourite social interaction is playing board games.
She is interested in psychology and likes to meditate, wants to build a habit from it.
In sports, she likes swimming and is learning to roller-skate.
What she enjoys most in the kitchen is cooking and eating with others.
Vencel is an architect, starting his studies this summer at the Doctoral School of Architecture in Budapest. His theme is related to Italian neo-realist architecture, and he would certainly like to visit some major cities on weekends.
In the last years, he has been paying attention to self-awareness: he meditates, participates in a drama group and draws a lot. One of his favourite media is etching, he really likes to teach this medium!
He likes to organise things and is interested in how thinking works, so he likes to learn from every aspect about neuroscience.

We both enjoying taking care of everything living and watch them grow and blooming. In our apartment we cultivate basil and chili for our cookings:)
Ági likes language learning and practicing it with other peoples not from her mother language. She is a fan of animals, especially dogs, one day, she wants to live with a pumi or other dog species with big, fluffy hair.
She enjoys teaching new board games to others.
Vencel enjoys physical work: he has built a weekend house and fence with friends, also some furniture out of wood or concrete, and has also put on exhibitions designs for architectural offices.
He spent his childhood near a forest, so he still loves hiking and especially wild camping and cooking under the sky.
He has a fascination for plants and is a good fisherman.
His family is big animal lovers, so he grew up with dogs and cats, but they also had many other small hobby animals.

Feedback
At Jenni's house, their appreciation of life permeated our days. The work was perfect for us. We managed our own time, it was up to our conscience how much we worked. I sanded, made shelves, packed firewood, cleaned, did the dishes. The place was beautiful. We had wine under Canossa's castle. We had Panini on the pebbled banks of the Enza… read more
