Description
We are a family of five. Geir and Elisa is us and we have a 9 year old Atlas, a girl called Alfa she is 6 and little Ajax is soon 3.
We would like to meet new people and learn about other cultures and languages.
We prefer hosting couples or friends, independent people that are at least 25 years old, and non vegetarians, because we eat meat!
Geir is a big strong funny man with a big beard and a big heart. He have worked in construction but this days he is also fishing. I am a tall curly half african midwife but until may 2022 I stay at home with Ajax.. My big passion is to travel but at the moment I have to stay at home so I would like the world to come to me . I also like to be creative and make things. I really enjoy playing backgammon, knitting and sewing (which I can teach if you would like to learn). Our dream is to live by the coast, on a hill, by a river, close to the forest with lots of sun and fun.
(And we had a lot of fun making this add).
.
We love to teast food from other countries, so bring some of your favourite recipes! We also ask that everyone that stays with us participates with household chores (dishes, meal plan, grocery shopping, etc.).
