Description
My name is Henrik (48) and I live alone in the countryside. I don’t have kids, but two dogs and some cats and a big house. I would like help from som caretakers, so I would be able to get away on vacation. But I’ll also need a little help for the house or the garden some times.

I live in a country house in the west part of Jutland Denmark. It’s an area full of history and nature and well visited by many tourist each year for the beaches and the salmon fishing. My place, though, is isolated and very quiet. I myself is a language teacher in danish so I might be able to help you with danish. I also speak English, Spanish and German and are interested in nature, science, gardening, house building, gaming, literature and history, and I’m very aware of intercultural communication.
Help
Im living alone in a house in the countryside and I need a little help taking care of my 2 dogs and cats outside and some maintenance around the house and in the garden. It’s not a big job, but I would like to be able to get a little away some times, and thus I need a caretaker. At the moment I also have 5 pigs and some chickens, But I would like to stop with this. I think Its important that my helpers have a drivers license and that the can drive with a stick, since I live a bit remote.
