  Description

  Hello fellows,
  I (Austeja) and my mum searching helping hands in the forest and around the house .
  
  I am a graduated music teacher and currently teaching and living in Switzerland. Have done a bit of travelling in the world with couchsurfing and alone. For every summer I settle down and enjoy the life in the really nice place in the South of Lithuania (Dzūkija). Its my grandparents land from which is really less left and now it needs more time and love to maintain. You will definetly and directly fell in love in the nature there. Especially that our landhouse is surrounded with forests and lakes.
  
  My mum (Jolita) is a kind hearted and hard working mum. She is very talkative and trying her best in speaking english, polish and german :)))
  
  We do not have a strict plan, but we have some work to do: collecting branches, cutting trees, building a fence, cutting the gras and also simply works in the around the house. So if you are a strong or a clever (or both) person you are welcome to contact me. Trying to organise for forst time a children camp so you are also welcome to help me.

The shower we need to build together or it is a possibility to wash in the lake just without chemicals which could cause problems to animals. We support a sustainable house hold as much as we can.
  
  we offer the food 3 times per day. We provide ingridients and there are farmers living near by if you want to have more food.
  There is no drinkable water inside the house. The cooking is more or less on the fire.

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  you are welcome to have your dogs, hamsters, but cats I woudnt reccomend cause they often flew away to the forest and then its impossible to find them. I am speaking from the experience. Dogs need also to sleep inside in your camp. I am not taking any responsibility of your pet health and etc. It is in your responsibility. The pet just has to be friendly with us and the other people living around.
