  Descrição

  Greetings, we are Joonatan and Agnessa,an orthodox Christian couple from Finland.
  
  We live challenging life in a middle of forest. I am a professional carpenter and have to spend whole day at work, but then I continue my work at home. My dear wife Agnessa is helping me. We try to do as much we can, so our day starts at 4 AM.
  
  It's lot of work on our household, but we have a dream to build chasovnia or even a wooden church. I am able to do it on my own, but I don't have much time due my work. I really would need a HELPER(S)! I do these after my work day and the progress goes very slow. I can teach you building tricks, carpentry and how to work with wood!
  
  We have a big garden land and some animals, with which we need a big help as well. Right now most of their diet goes with grains and hay we buy and it eats plenty of our not that big income, so our goal to grow enough of food for them and us for the upcoming winter. We are sharing with our volunteers all we grow, especially meat, milk and eggs are always fresh and you won't find anything like this in a supermarket store. My wife cooks meals and serving table approximately 3 times a day. In a hunting season there might be game on the table.
  
  We are visiting church in Helsinki almost every Sunday, it takes 2 hours of driving and you can join our trip on your desire.

  Generally there's not much to add, but I would like to mention that we want to have mutual respect and effort, keep in mind - "you treat others you want to be treated yourself".
