  Description

  Hi!
  Our names are Glen and Ingrid, and we are a married couple in our 50s.
  We live on a small farm in the countryside in Kirkenær, in Norway. We have a cat and a small dog, and a big house and big garden which both need some work and maintenance.
  We love to travel, and when we do, we would love to have someone we could trust to take care of the house, garden, and pets while we’re away. We are also looking for someone who can help with cooking, cleaning, gardening, building projects, etc.
  Kirkenær (and our farm) is perfect for people who enjoy nature and the peace and quiet in the countryside. There are amazing opportunities for hiking and swimming, and we have bicycles and canoes that it’s possible to use in your free time.
