  Descrição

  We are a family of artists in search of a deeper truth through painting, storytelling and self enquiry. We believe in a good and loving Universe. I believe we are all connected and here for a higher purpose. We live a peaceful and simple life in Buzau Mountains, Romania, being passionate about art, nature, psychology and good life.
  A beautiful and still serene landscape, with small villages, among hills and forests. Valea Buzaului is to be discovered, still traditional and wild, a place where one can search for its own meaning and can reflect clearly one's soul. Search for "Tinutul Buzaului" for more informations or photos.

  Acomodação

  Single bedroom or shared bedroom (depends on availability), shared bathroom. Shared meals, mostly vegetarian (fish sometimes). Most food here is provided by locals, clean and healthy vegetables. Help with cooking and housing in genereal is expected. I see it more like a shared, nice experience.
