  Descrição

  Hello new friends!
  
  We are a family of four; Daniel 40, Elise 37, Robert 10 and Jenny 5. We live in the middle of Norway, near the coast. We run a construction company together, and Elise work part time as a nurse and is also teaching cooking and baking online.
  
  We live in a quiet neighborhood in walking distance to the community center, fjord and mountains. And we have a big garden with veggies, fruit and berries - and chickens.
  
  We love to be outdoors, knit, cook, read books, look into the fire, wood work, bake sourdough, work out, meet new people, listen to music and play cards, chess and Playstation. We also do voluntary work for children in The Norwegian Trekking Association (DNT).
  
  Since we have a lot going on with kids and work, there is always need for more help! We need help with daily routines both inside and outside the house. You will, for the most time, work alone on the tasks since we have work during the daytime on weekdays.
  
  We eat mostly homecooked food and spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking and baking. We eat meat, fish, eggs and dairy every day, so if you are a vegan/vegetarian this is not the place for you.
  
  Staying with us will give you a lot of time to enjoy the Norwegian nature as we live close both to the mountains and the fjord.
  
  We love to meet new people, but since we run our own companies there is not much time for travelling.
