Descrição
25 years ago I started for Hungary, a small village in the southern part of this country till then completely unknown. Today I am convinced:: This house in this village had been waiting for me, giving me a lot of good energy.
Unfortunately I did not realize my dreams of living there. Not yet. Neighbours are supporting me and and taking care of the house.

What I am looking for as support given by workawayers?
Give me a hand with all what is to be done like gardening or housekeeping, reparing clay walls, fire wood work. Most important for me is your creativity by 'styling' or designing some areas of the greenery - steps, meditation place, plants, stones, sculptures ... what ever you like to do.

What is my background?
Today there is a special challenge: Being grandma of two beautiful young kids. In the past I worked as professional consultant in Germany, Switzerland and India. My life? On roads, in hotels instead of home and family life. I am looking for new balancing.

What is the location?
The house is made of clay in the very typical style of Hungarian cottages. My goal always had been to take care of style and material - not as easy as I thought, People forgot the old techniques and used modern materials restauring the house. Now I want to replace step by step concrete parts by clay - I need help to do that.
In the main house there is a 2-bed-room,living room, kitchen, bathroom with shower and WC. The 'livingroom' is the ancient 'kitchen' (konyha) which means fireplace, table. seats. Today completed with internet.

There is another building almost made of wood, the former shelter with former cowshed. which I changed into a beautiful bedroom - with bathroom under construction till 2023.

You want to know a bit more about the village?
Today ca. 80 Hungarian inhabitants
About 10 houses owned by Germans, Swiss
No shop, no bar, no restaurant, nothing - all lost in times after 1991.
People speak Hungarian. Only few of them speak English or German.
The people are friendly and open.

The attraction of this place seams to be low. You have to like making experiences with simple life in a simple village. If ever you wanted to experience simple life - no tv, only internet access in my house - this may be a good place for you like it is for me.
This place is made for you if you need to recover or, if you want , to make a break, get supported with professional coaching, meditation, self reflection. Or even silence.
if you wanted I will take you to 'our' town, market and coffee houses; or the natural environment. The lake Balaton is not far away. Even the landscape is some kind of simple: Nothing huge, not really impressive or extraordinary.

In my former life I've been teacher of German literature - You are free to take your profit.

The main benefit will be natur, village life style of today. You may meet Hungarian people, friends and see how they live today. Hungary is a developing country in EU, slowly leaving deep poverty. I learned a lot about challenges the people had to manage in confrontation with capitalism. A better understanding of life in socialism is possible, if we get informations directly
We learn about poverty in Europe, its beauty, simplicity, lifestyle.

Acomodação
This house is a typical hyngarian small farmhouse more than 100 years old . Unbelievable that two to three generations lived in here. at the same time!
You will sleep in the mainhouse made of clay with real good and healthy climat. The bedroom with 2 wooden beds is simple, beautiful, small. It helps to sleep deeply. If ever you can not sleep, you will find some books and elected music on CD. There is no TV - I am sorry.

We may share the small bathroom, kitchen and table - normaly we stay most of the day outside while working or recovering in hidden places.

I like cooking and will prepare your meals for breakfast, lunch and diner - mostly I prefer vegetarian food, but I will hear what you want or need.
My cooking style is a mixture of mediterranian and asian food: spicy, fresh, sustainable. We buy regional products from the market place and small typical shops 15 km away.
