Green tourism is our first experience!
I want to share my impressions about the vacation in the estate "Kalynka" 27 km from the city of Kamyanets-Podilskyi. Together with my husband, we rested from the end of June, partly to July, in total for 10 days. To begin with, we were traveling by train, so we had previously agreed with the owners to be met at the station in Kamenetz-Podolsky. I think it's much more convenient than looking for a way to get there in the evening (we arrived late in the evening). Previously, we had no experience of green tourism, so we were a little worried. But, thank God, and first of all, a huge thank you to the hosts, they met us on time and fed us upon arrival from the road, and it was already about half past twelve, and we quickly went to bed, because we ourselves were very tired. I'll tell you a little about the room and the conditions in which we lived: a large single bed for two, clean bed linen and towels, a closet with a huge mirror on the outside, shelves and a bar inside, and the light in the room was turned on with a remote control, which was enough in itself unusual and original. We were also given a hair dryer - I think women will understand me, an important thing. The only thing is that the bed was on springs, so at the slightest turn, it creaked a little, but for us it was not a problem.
In the morning, a delicious hot breakfast was waiting for us, we discussed the menu for several days with the hostess, and went to explore the area. To begin with, we studied the surrounding area to the house. There are 2 houses on the territory, the owners live in one, and guests live in the other. I want to note that the whole area is very well-groomed and tidy. There is a trampoline, a swimming pool, a hammock - an area for guests to relax. In another part of the local area, the owners keep pets: cows, pigs, roosters, hens, there is a dog, a cat... it was very fun and informative to watch their life. ))) In this village called Sokol, we went to the river and along shops, and just in the field, to feel unity with nature - we are city people, everything was interesting to us. And we also went to Kamenetz-Podolsky and walked a lot there on foot. What we did not have time to visit is Khotyn and Bakota. In this connection, we really want to come again.
From the bottom of our hearts we thank Svetlana and Yulia for the excellent delicious fresh dishes, tact, and the attention paid to us. Everything was insanely delicious, and the portions were so voluminous that you could eat perfectly. There was a huge selection of various dishes, and I think we would have tried more, but unfortunately, we do not eat everything, and we were pleased that Svetlana immediately asked what we eat and what not. I also want to note that they have a wonderful family: Svetlana, her husband Alexander, their son Nazar, his wife Yulia, and their little daughter Sashenka are very nice people with whom there is something to talk about.
We enjoyed not only walking through the green area and breathing in really fresh air, but also listening to various stories from Svetlana - over 15 years of experience in green tourism, she has seen a lot and managed to communicate with many interesting people . 10 days flew by absolutely unnoticed, for ourselves we realized that in the village we breathe differently, and the rhythm of life is not as crazy as in Kyiv. We had a great rest in our souls, “rebooted” as they say now, and were very pleased that we visited such a beautiful estate.
