Description
Hello,
this is a place where you can learn how to build with natural materials, such as hemp, soil and mud.
From me, you can learn yoga, anti candida diet, languages, hemp and mud building and animal care.
Lodging is available either in a hemp house, or in one of the comfortable trailers. As soon as we build a mini house, lodging will be possible there, as well.
There is an organic garden, a pond, and help is needed in finalizing mini house made of natural materials.
The estate is situated on a montain Kosmaj, an hour drive from Serbian capital, Belgrade, in wonderful natural setting.

The works in building mini houses out of natural materials are progressing.
There are various activities, from cutting branches, carrying soil, gravel, mixing mud plasters, working in gloves and with bare hands... many processes connected to building with natural materials. Building walls and plastering.
Knowledge in carpentry and woodwork is a huge plus.
The workaways will learn a lot on how to choose, test and apply materials in building with soil, plastering with mud, how to build with soil, hemp, lime and sand.
Welcome!

I hold MA in English language and Literature, and French was my second foreign language during studies. I worked for years both in tuition area, and in international projects, as well as tourism, and I express myself with ease in English, French, Russian, Serbian and Serbo-Croatian.
Hébergement
At the moment the accommodation is in the hemp house, where you will have your own bed, but the space is shared with me and-or other people. Electricity, internet, heating and water. Cooking, eating and bathroom is in the house.
Outdoor toilet is still in usage.
I try to cook healthy, low fast carb diet with a lot of veggies, poultry, seeds, grain and home made products. Eggs and cheese come from free range chicken and goats. We eat together, and food is prepared in the main house.
There will be copious breakfasts and dinners, with snacks in between, but if you have a different feeding habits, we will adjust. .
I do not offer alcohol, but various herbal hand picked teas and coffee.

Richie is a pro when it comes to wood works and carpentry (I am sure with other stuff, as well, but there was no time to check that, during two weeks of his stay), and we clicked on the subject of esthetics, on top of many other things. Windows, single doors and massive sliding oak… read more

I wish he would return, share his talents, hard work, laughs and yoga expertise.
Highly recommended.
At first, as his health was not at its best, so he was taking it slow with the work, but still contributing by playing guitar, and making tasty ciabattas. He participated in all the house chores, and I felt confident leaving the animals and the house with him.
Always welcome back.
Although he stayed only a week, if feels like he did jobs worth much longer.
Always in good mood, easy going and careful with animals,
respectful of house and life in nature, great topics for conversation.
Skilled with tools and wood work, although metal might be his thing, I simply did not need that… read more
He may not be in his best when it comes to physical labor, but he listens and learns,
Being a born entertainer, he will contribute much more in places with more people,
and where more social skills are needed.
I wish Ozgur all the best.
I got lucky that she could join me in one of the hardest times, with unexpected loads of snow, with puppies growing, with one of the dogs getting seriously sick, on top of many other things that were supposed to be done in spring - gardening, seeding, planting... and house chores.
She did it all. I think I would not… read more
as well as in a bit more creative activities, including mud work.
I believe she can be a great help in any environment, she is a fast learner, and not being afraid of new things.
Vesna is a great host, we had perfect work and chat balance! that plus quality food, a warm bed and lots of pets made my stay absolutely enjoyable

They are very skilled, each in his field, with an eye for a detail, and finding solutions for every (sometimes tricky) demand I had.
Making food for them was no fuss at all, and they stayed in a trailer, sometimes with temperatures going seriously under zero,
so what more can be… read more

Very fortunately it worked out and we stayed almost five weeks. This place is "under construction" and continuously evolving. We have never come in contact with hemp as a building material before and this house was very inspiring to us, so was… read more
Vesna is the perfect host.
There was a wide variety of work for me to do and I was very pleased to do anything Vesna asked of me.
My accommodation was a very comfortable caravan and although there was a heater, I never needed to use it.
Vesna prepared wonderful food and went over and above to make me feel welcome. She… read more
I would have them again, and hopefully some day they will return so that we can enjoy our time here again.
We stayed 3 days at Vesna's place, because a workaway's friend was going there and we wanted to accompany him, have the opportunity to meet Serbs and see countryside of Serbia. But what beautiful days in this place... we were not disappointed! Vesna is such interesting and caring person. Vesna welcomed us in her… read more
Their contribution to my estate is visible in many ways.
Excellent ideas, solutions, hard work and gentle behavior.
I hope they will some day return to see the fruits of their labor, and to enjoy it, too!
Vesna always asked about my needs and prepared healthy and tasty meals. I lived in a comfortable trailer. The job content is not complicated, there are many different things to be done. If it weren't for the rain, I'd like to get as much work done as possible.
Vesna took me to fancy a restaurant and a… read more
The words I would use to describe her are
She is patient, low-key, calm, responsible, trustful, simple, flexible, open-minded, warm hearted, good listener, down to earth,.
and finally, a person, that makes me feel I have a new friend in another part of the world.
