Informationen
Beschreibung
For next summer we are looking for male workawayers to help with paving our garden pathway and possibly some painting etc!
We are a widely traveled family of five (kids 12, 10 and 4) in the western part of Finland looking for extra help around the house. Come join us for a great stay enjoying the countryside and experience the Finnish culture!
You are free to hang out with our animals, drive a four wheeler around the small roads, sup-board or row a boat at our near by river side cottage (that can also be your home if you prefer simple and rustic life without running hot water and indoor toilet but a lot of peace and quiet during the summer), ski, swim in an ice hole, ride a bike, hike or take part in the many art and culture activities that are going on in our town 7 kms away from our house or go treasure hunting in the many amazing second hand shops of the area (no public transport but we can give you a ride if needed). We also get to admire northern lights on most winters and spot wildlife like moose, deer, foxes and big birds during summer from our yard.

Arbeit
We have three horses, two outdoor cats and two happy dogs that all love the extra attention! We need some friendly soul to help with keeping the house and yard tidy, cook if you enjoy and help take care of the animals to some extent. Our garden also desperately needs some work done during summer.
Our kids love to spend time with our workawayers. Our eldest son likes to play on the computer, read or listen to manga and fantacy literature and listen to electronic music. He is fluent in english. Our daughter enjoys creative stuff like drawing and crafting. She understands quite a bit of english and uses translator a bit to talk. Our youngest loves all action from jumping around in the forrest to building lego and will invite you to play straight away!
If you have specific skills or interests let us know!
