Description
Sveiki! We are Ivan and Rūta, a couple gathering knowledge and skill in homesteading, farm life and self sufficiency.
We have a few skills already that can be useful or interesting to others, we are very interested and passionate about wild food foraging and food preparation and herbal medicine. We love making wild salads, gathering herbs for tea, jams, syrups, seasonings and our latest obsession has been making acorn flour for flatbread or pancakes every fall, which would be fun to share with others. We are also dabbling in long term food storage, learning how to can, ferment and preserve, making herbal infusions and oils for both topicals and consumption, hand crafts like sewing and weaving and many more. We hope we can share and expand our knowledge with our hosts.
We are particularly interested in anything involved with homesteading and living with and off the land. We have been dabbling in experimenting with gardening, learning and implementing different techniques that brought both funny and satisfying results, learning about farm animal care and getting hands on experience, such as being entrusted to take care of a 16 horse ranch alone (thank you Molėtų Žirgai), which has taught us so much about not only horsecare, but discipline, responsibility and especially teamwork, vulnerability and compassion towards each other as well. This experience has taught us skills that can be used both directly and as transferable skills in other environments, we work great as a team and individually.
We are welcoming to discomfort and new unfamiliar experience as well as we are very excited to learn and adapt to different lifestyles, conditions and people we will meet.
