Photos from Moldavite Monastery and Farm

We parked our car at a petrol station in the middle of nowhere and were picked up by the driver from Hai La Saiven Bioretreat. It is a farm that has cows, sheep, and Freesia horses. We aren't allowed to bring any food here. When we told the driver we were from Australia, he was the only one who didn't seem too shocked or impressed. We usually get the reaction of the shake of the hand gesture that expressed a "wow from so far away." He then declared that they had Australian chickens on the farm. So the chickens beat us here. We never knew that Australia exported chickens.
We had to do a river crossing to get to the farm. Let's hope there won't be any flash flooding so we are not stuck here. On second thoughts, that would actually be great as it's our second paradise stay.
We are in a 100 year old farm house physically moved onto this property when it was earmarked for demolition to preserve the building and heritage.Read more
