Description
Hello, my actual name is Vidar. I work as an survey engineer, curently working on a tunnel in Oslo. When I have free time I spend some of it in my old farm on Frosta close to Trondheim. There is no farming on the farm any more
Because of my work, family and relationship I am traveling a lot and don’t have much time to spend on my farm.
This farm is a very quiet place and good for everyone who wants to get away from noice. However, if you want to visit the city it is posible to order «taxi for bus» to some trains going to Trondheim👌🏻

Help
There is no farming on the farm any more, just relaxation and doing some diy tasks
I need some help with general gardening and cutting down bushes 1-2 year old trees growing outside the garden. Very easy help not demanding too much skills😊.
I will be traveling a lot for my work this summer, so most of the time it will be housesitting and keeping the garden nice and clean. When at home I am happy to spend time together preparing meals, playing games, just chilling in the garden after the lawn is cut :)
