Description
Hi folks,
we're in the process of moving,...or let's put it that way: we try (more or less hard...) to get ready to move our business/stuff/pets/us. Final move, move... will be only mid May, so we can face the project with a solid portion of equanimity and relaxation ;)
Yet, we need to prepare the new property, which is just a stone's throw down the road- could use help with all kinds of household tasks and also physical work- OMG!!!
My son lives with me full time, would also be a chore- and fun, since he is the best son in the world :-)
Much love, peace and cheers

Pleasure to meet 'em wonderful souls, thanks for the help- and great company :)
Love and cheers

He was right, I couldn't speak even English well but he was really kind and friendly.
I couldn't cook or do anything, but he was kind enough to teach me.
I want to be an open-minded adult like him and one day I want to be like him, hosting guests as a work-away host.
Love,cheers
