  Descripción

  Hi there, my name is Tamara. I live in Temse, which is situated in the middle of the triangle Antwerpen/Gent/Brussel
  Beautifull cycling trips to be done starting in Temse.
  The bridge between Temse and Bornem is the largest of Belgium.
  
  I am found of languages and learning now Russian. So Russian speakers welcome.
  I am in different 'exchange groups', such as language exchange, Servas, and Lets.
  As a creative person I am a good problem solver. Extremely found of dogs.
  I was a 'moral ethics' teacher. Now I am into the process of being a TRE (Tension Release Excercices) provider.
  
  I am looking for daily tasks help.
  For now, may & june 2024, I would be greatfull with some cleaning help, preparing for painting (taping), garden help, sewing, making pictures of things to be sold.
  
  Do you have 1 or more of these skill, then let's have a chat:
  - Russian language teaching
  - re-organising, decluttering (Marie Kondo)
  - permaculture
  - sewing
  - making good pictures (of stuff to be sold on second hand, ...)
  - electricity (lamps to be hanged)

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  I live in a small municipality, which is an excellent base from which one can explore
  Brussels (39km), Antwerp (25km), Brugge (90km), Leuven (64km), Gent (42km)
  There is public transport nearby, and I am willing to give you a lift or pick you up
  at the train/bus station in Temse.
  I don't live on the country side, but there are some nice areas of nature in the
  neighbourhood, for walking or cycling.
  AMMA's center is very close.

  PROJECT GARDEN
  
  - digging some square meters, to fill this with organic material
  - collecting organic material (braches, compost, horse shit, ...)
  - collecting bambo sticks and make new scelet for bird protection
  - making borders around the different flower spaces, berry spaces
  - making a house for hedgehog (too many snales in the veggiegarden)
  
  I'll be needing some 'muscles' :).
  Still transforming my garden into a permaculture area.
  The soil is rather infertile. So, some digging already had place, and the whole was filled with big, new and old (tree trunks, branches, ...) to fine (grass, flowers, leaves, horse shit, compost, ...) compostable material.
  I would like a few more places to transform to fertile pieces. Those pieces will be between 1 to 3 square meter, and more ore less 50 to 70 cm deep.

  Algo más...

  ---------- IMPORTANT ---------------
  Please read the whole profile and send a PERSONAL message.
  I will only reply to people who have read my profile and send a personal mail.
  Copy paste mails will be ignored.
  Let me know if you are contacting more hosts at the same time. I understand you do this. But it gives more
  transparancy when you do communicate this. In the past volunteers applied, I was making arrangements, at the same time they were in contact with other hosts, and decided to go to the other host.
  Tell me in your application letter what your eating habits are. Give me some examples of what you normally eat for
  breakfast, lunch or dinner.
  
  
  
  ---------- THE VOLUNTEER SHOULD ----------
  - be a non smoker
  - like dogs, as I sometimes do host dogs as well
  - have read my profile carefully, AND SEND ME A PERSONAL EMAIL!!
  - have a decent profile him/herself with at least two positieve reviews
  - communicate a fair bit before we commit to your coming, as a good match in
  expectations and what we each have to offer and what we're each looking for,
  is really very important to me.
  - have a good work ethic, and not be too picky on the jobs ('Can't you give me something inside, it's too chilly to work outside' is not really the attitude that I am longing for. I want some help, not to have to argue to get something done)
  - realize he/she is a guest in my house, therefor should accept the house rules without constantly having comments or questioning on the way I live
  - go out on the non working days
  - have an insurance
  - using water and energy in an economic way, especially water! So no 10 minute long showers
  - mention that they have read the whole profile
