Cherry picking and more in cherry paradise - Tavalichevo, Bulgaria

  Descripción

  We are a laid back and open minded couple with a three year old little boy. I am a Belgian born language teacher, musician, singer-songwriter and tarot reader. About 10 years ago I got attached to Bulgaria and its amazing nature, and in 2015 I bought a property in a small village, surrounded by cherry trees and snow topped mountains. My hubby David is an electrician and produces electronic music and one-of-a-kind lamps in his spare time. We moved here end of 2021 and are now in the process of making this place better and better. Hopefully we can gradually develop some interesting social and/or cultural activities here, inspired by permaculture.
  
  Space and freedom are of utmost importance to us. We are also super busy taking care of Rumi and the household. Count on spending time without us and entertaining yourself in the free time. We don't exclude the possibility of doing some fun things together, but you need to be independent enough to take care of yourself.
  
  The Kyustendil area is amazing. Besides from the mountains there are numerous mineral springs and baths. The nearest town, Kyustendil, has several. There is also a market, and a lively center with a lot of bars, restaurants and shops. Great second hand shopping! There are some folk festivals in the summer. In June and July it's cherry picking time: my garden has about twenty trees and the cherries are just wonderful. Too much to eat, great for jam and compot. For those who enjoy horseback riding there are opportunities in the surrounding. Hiking and mountain biking are also perfect pass times in these parts. I don't have bikes here (yet) but they are for rent for very cheap in Kyustendil.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  My husband is an electrician and will be glad to teach you what he knows if this is something you would like. I teach Dutch and English so that's something I can happily share. I read Tarot, know numerology and have been reading the Tarot cards for over ten years now. And of course music: I'm a classically trained flute player and play guitar as well, David is a sound engineer and plays a bunch of instruments.We will live and learn together. Musical and mineral medicine, open(ing) hearts and minds, and a stunning nature await you.

  We are a little family of three and love spending time in our garden. The cherry trees give us amazing cherries that I use for jam and juice, and David likes to experiment with making wine as a hobby. Most of the help is needed in the garden and the general house keeping. When David is out working it is nice to have some support with 3 year old Rumi. He loves checking out tractors and strolling in the surrounding nature. We are slowly but steadily renovating the old structures on the premises and we could use some help with that as well. If you have experience with cob houses, stone garden paths, building doors, windows etc, you would definitely be of great value here. But if you have no clue, don't worry! We can learn together, as long as you are happy to get your hands dirty :)
  
  The accent will be less on growing vegetables this year and more on creating more sustainable beauty in the garden: some seating area's, rose beds, lavender beds, perennial herbs... We do have some tomatoes and some guerilla pumpkins I transplanted from the compost pile.
  
  Ideally we host a couple who can help us about four to five hours a day, and who get full room and board in return. You can stay either in our guest room or in the smaller house in the garden, and use the compost toilet and the bathroom with shower in the house. You can join us for meals three times a day. We can also provide a gas stove to cook on in the old house on the premises that also has a sink with drinkable water. It's all about transparency and agreement so we will discuss the wants and needs of both sides before you come over. After you sent us an email we shall speak over the phone or have an online interview, so we can both figure out whether it is a good match.
  
  I am a singer-songwriter and David plays guitar and has experience with protools and Ableton. Musicians with experience mixing and mastering, players of guitar, bass, violin, cello, cajon, brass instruments... you might be that special extra touch we are looking for! I must add there has been very little space for music since Rumi was born. We still play but there is (for now) no recording.
  
  If you love kids, orchards, jamming, and/or you are a yoga teacher, plumber, gardener, a musician or all of these at once :) please come and join us! And let's have an awesome, healing, creative and constructive time together!
  
  Thank you!

  Alojamiento

  You are also free to peg down your tent in the garden in case you enjoy camping and like the extra privacy.
  We share the bathroom with toilet and hot shower. There is a compost toilet in the garden and we plan to install a sink and shower there as well so we don't crowd our inside bathroom too much. There is an old house on the premises that also has a sink with drinkable water and soon a gas stove for cooking.
  You get breakfast, lunch and dinner unless we agree otherwise. I usually cook one hot meal a day, except on weekends. Then we see what works best, depending on everybody's plans. Some days I am not feeling it and then the kitchen and fridge are open for your inspiration :) I am quite flexible and expect the same from guests.

  We have a regular wifi connection in the house. There are power fallouts sometimes, which then also stops the router from working and cuts the internet connection, but these fallouts usually last no longer than an hour, usually even just minutes.

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  Just in front of the house there is a big parking space along the street, it is grassy and there are trees, so it's in the green.
