Crafts and shooting trip in Romania
I go through such days of old dreams, that suddenly, without any warning, I remember to gather together and precisely now, to come true!
One of them is an old dream to organize a shooting workshop in... Romania!
Somewhere on the thin border between Romania and Hungary there is a remote village where people still live as they used to, as they did for generations. In the small village, the vegetables and fruits are grown, wooden houses are built and the village weaves the baskets. Gypsies live in the area who go around the villages and sell baskets made of corn!
For a long time I wanted to meet the gypsies who thresh corn and visit a village that looks like it was taken from old fairy tales.
And now the moment has come.
What about the workshop?
During our stay in the village we slept in a traditional farm house. We will eat and live with the locals. We will stay in two or three rooms.
Together we will go through a series of workshops and experiences in local crafts.
In addition we will walk a bit around and do some shopping - we will visit the local market which excels in beautiful traditional crafts.
flight details

It's going to be very special and lovely
A time of quiet peace and creativity - for us
There are many programs and workshops, but there is no obligation to participate in all of them.
You can surrender to the slow pace of life in the village
Enjoy rest and connection to your personal rhythm
A time of silence and femininity
