Description
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
We live in a (still) traditional village surrounded by hills and forests where time goes in a different pace. For many years our household was part of an intentional community group that has unfortunately dismantled in 2017. However, we keep on our beliefs and values and go on experimenting simplicity with permaculture and technology, weaving a social web of people interested in alternative living.
Since 2009 the farm has known different stages, peaks and lows. Currently on the farm there are Teodora, 45 yrs, recovering from multiple surgeries and prolonged health issues and Constanza, 80 yrs.
For 2021 we would like to improve the cabin for visitors and volunteers for which we miss strong arms and backs for heavier works like digging or carrying loads. We offer nice food and lots of stories in exchange :)

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We live in a multiethnic village in Western Romania (Serbian and Romanian population) along with some newcomers from the nearby city Timisoara, Germany, Belgium and France. The locals are friendly and willing to interact with international visitors. The travellers can learn here about Banat area as an interesting historic experiment of co-habitation by people of different ethnic backgrounds as well as about new nomads searches (that included both failures and successes) for a balanced lifestyle. The nearby city of Timisoara is interesting to visit and to experience contemporary culture, as the city is preparing to be European Capital of Culture in 2023.
Aide
The typical tasks we need help with - gardening (March to September), picking fruits and canning, small renovation work (plastering with lime and sand, small buildings and repairs such as renewing a toilet or a shed), occasionally helping with tourists that visit the farm, organizing activities with kids in the village.

I spent such a good time with Theo and Thomas. I felt so good in our place, except the roaster who find in love with me ;).
I feel so grateful to Theo.
These two exemplary people are some of the most hospitable you will come across and are both excellent company, able to recount seemingly endless tales of their lives and times. Teo has a particular talent for telling five or six different yarns simultaneously and… read more
