  Descrição

  Hello! We are a couple Rūta, Gytis, my boyfriend, and our dog Pūkis living in countryside surrounded by forests and beautiful river near by.
  
  We are living here for two years, now our third summer awaits us! We would love to get some help in the garden, renovating the house or furniture, building something new.
  
  Our house is almost 100 years old and we live a really simple and humble life here. We have no running water inside the house, but we do just fine.:) We shower outside, have our canister-tap-bucket system for cleaning dishes and have a compostable toilet.
  
  We love arts, music, travelling, hitchhiking and so much more.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We live in a splendid place surrounded by a forest and a river with amazing cliffs. You can hike around a lot, go on bicycle trips, or go swimming and canoeing (several routes available). I also plan to organize some retreats in my place, and we quite often travel to festivals or any other events, so we could take you with us! I'm interested in jewellery, sewing, dyeing with plants, gardening, and herbalism. Gytis is interested in music (he plays bass, accordion, guitar), electronics engineering, and photography. We can teach you something or tell you anything you are interested in. :)

  Ajuda

  Time is flexible - you can choose which time of the day you would like to help us. Help in the garden includes weeding, harvesting, and preserving the harvest, watering, mowing the grass, etc. Foraging plants for teas or dyeing (I'm interested in dyeing with plants). Help in the house involves cleaning, doing the dishes, bringing water, and cooking. You can also assist with building an outside shower or other building projects, renovating old furniture, sanding, painting, etc.

  Acomodação

  It's a big room, approximately half of our house; we will live in another half. We have lots of mattresses to share and can provide linen and towels. It's also possible to live outside in tents; we have two big ones. Shared kitchen, compostable toilet, and a river a 10-minute walk away. We usually use some little or big baths outside to wash ourselves properly, or we go to a flat in the nearest village. There's no running water in our house. Come and live the experience with us!
  
  Meals are included - we are flexitarians, so we do not cook meat and rarely eat it. We've noticed we don't want to eat that much in the warmer season, so we usually eat twice a day (around 10-11 AM and 4-6 PM). This way, we can also intermittent fast. If this doesn't suit you, we always try to make more so there are leftovers available at any time, or we can make something earlier. Everyone eats according to their needs.

  Algo mais...

  Transport: The nearest village Upninkai with a shop is 4-5 km away, Jonava town is 30 km, and both Vilnius and Kaunas are about an hour away from us with a car. We can give bicycles, and if needed we can give you a ride. I myself usually hitchhike if needed, but if you don't prefer it, there is busses and trains from Jonava.
  Local sights: Dubiai mound, Sukiniai mound, historical Vepriai village, several springs, forests, river cliffs...
