  About us: 😊
  We decided to start a farm with a small organic garden and some animals to have fresh vegetables, cheese and eggs, living in the pure nature peacefully and sharing this peace & love with others through some Yoga & Meditation activities. 🙏🏽😊🍀❤️
  
  We are at the very beginning stage of our farm retreat, so still working on making new gardens, fences for animals, clearing up the land from overgrown shrubs & bushes and of course having fun, having yoga & Meditation workshops and basically enjoying our life in harmony with nature without using any intoxications.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  You can learn about permaculture (doesn’t mean that we are living 100% based on Permaculture principles and off-grid), taking care of chickens. And participating in our summer workshops such as Yoga, Meditation, Dance and etc. (it doesn’t mean that we have workshops everyday)
  
  We enjoy our life here all together naturally without any booster 😉 (Alcohol, Drugs, Smoking). If you use any but willing to change your habit or give a break, we will be all next to you to make it happen. 🙏🏽😊❤️

  Ayuda

  We need assistance for all the positions listed below within our community, not for our campsite business.
  Our daily life is pretty similar to any other community farms which goes around picking vegetables from the garden, cooking, cleaning and the most important one, Sharing a BIG SMILE! 😃
  And it is VERY VERY important for us to keep our place clean and tidy so we always enjoy hosting volunteers who are organized and neat freak. 😄👍🏽
  
  Summer time: (May-October)
  
  We need volunteers in 6 different positions (depends on your skills and interests you can apply for one or more)
  
  * You can find each position's availability and minimum stay in the update section at the top of this profile.*
  
  1- Cleaning: Help us to keep the place clean and tidy.
  
  2- Gardening: Watering the garden & picking vegetables, weeding, trimming and feeding animals.
  
  3- Babysitting: recently we got a new member in the community, He is 2 years old now 👶🏻 Helping us to take a good care of him would be so beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
  
  4- Construction: we are building some wooden objects and a stone wall as well as working finishing a tiny wooden house for our family where we need some help for building beds and shelves. 🏝
  
  5. We would love to create a video about our community, who we are, and our story. If you have experience in photography and video editing, we'd really appreciate your help.
  
  6- If you are not skilled or interested in the tasks above the main task would be clearing up the land out of shrubs and bushes, weeding & trimming, so be prepared for hard physical chores 💪🏽 and monotone meditative tasks which suits to self motivated characters. So be honest with yourself since our minimum stay is one month 😉
  
  In general we have a very dynamic life and we need help here and there and everyday is a new day with a new surprise 😄 so switching in different tasks happens, especially on the days-off of the other volunteers we need to cover their tasks so being flexible is necessary.
  😊🙏🏽🍀
  
  
  Winter time - House Sitting: (November-March)
  
  We are seeking long-term volunteers (preferably a couple or two friends) who can commit to a minimum of 3 months for house sitting while we are away during the winter season. (Priority will be given to those willing to stay longer, up to 5 months.) This arrangement would be from November to the end of February.
  Accommodation will be provided in either a bungalow or stone house. Our location is surrounded by nature, situated 2 km away from the nearest village and 4 km away from the bus stop and a mini market. The temperature rarely drops below freezing ❄️ and we don't experience snow, but it remains cold and damp with frequent rain.
  You should be able to motivate yourself to live independently in the nature and be capable of handling small repairs if issues come up. (We'll guide you through phone calls on how to fix things.)
  While there won't be specific tasks assigned to you, your main responsibility would be to stay here and ensure the upkeep of the house. In return, we offer you accommodation equipped with WiFi. Food and other living expenses will be your responsibility. However, you are welcome to enjoy the eggs from our chickens (but please, not the chickens themselves 😉) and some winter vegetables from our garden.
  It's important to recognize that staying here during winter is a distinct experience from the warmer summer months when the weather is more pleasant and communal living is active. Therefore, it's essential for you to honestly assess whether you're seeking this winter experience. Additionally, we kindly ask for your commitment to stay until the agreed-upon end date.
  
  By the way, since we mentioned at the beginning “please read our profile completely and carefully” we want to thank you for your respect for reading it down to here carefully and please send us your request with the code “olive” in the subject of your message so we can recognize you easily. 😉🙏🏽
  
  And please in your request rate yourself between 0 to 5 about:
  - Keeping your surrounding clean
  - Being organized
  - Punctuality
  - Honesty
  
  We are sharing our life with our volunteers so it is very important to us who is joining our Family even for a short period therefore we always make a video call to know each other better before making our final decision.
  
  (Minimum Stay: 1 month)
  Please don’t ask for less.
  Priority is with volunteers who stay up to 3 months or more.

  Algo más...

  We are located between Tivat, Kotor and Budva not so far to the sea.
  
  On your days off you can hike to our secret beaches 🏝👌🏽😉 or exploring Tivat, Kotor & Budva old towns and in general discovering the beauty of nature in Montenegro.
  
  We are on top of a hill 7km to the sea and 4km to the main road's bus stop between Kotor & Budva. Hiking or Hitching are the ways to get to the beach or the main road.
  
  In general our life here is way different than city life. We recommend our volunteering program only to people who doesn't get bored being in the nature with limited wifi access and are interested in community living.
