  Description

  We are family with two children (13 and 8 years old) . We live in Gorje near Bled in North west of Slovenia but we are making our home – house on a farm in Bohinj – a pearl of Slovenia's nature.
  
  In Bohinj we also have a half camping place with a traditional Bohinj's hayloft, summer kitchen, fireplace and a tepee, where we occasionally organize camps and workshops. We spend most of our time in the summer there and work on our house in the village Bohinjska Češnjica.
  
  Matej (44 years old) mostly works with nature (mowing and hay harvesting, foresting,...) carpentry and woodwork and Mina (40 years old) organizes camps, workshops, works with sound (individual treatments and group meditations) and children with special needs.
  
  We love and respect nature and simple living. At the moment we are working on clay plasters in our house, wooden panelling and some other building stuff and we would be happy to have some help with it. We are looking for 2 men or a couple that would help us with this work.
