Description
Hello and welcome to our profile. ❤️
If you are a woman, please continue reading 😊
I am a solo mom(mom via donors) with a 5.5 year old daughter. (We also have 2 cats )
I am recovering from a broken back and I need to be careful while i recover(pain is worst in the morning). Im a stay at home mom.
This summer (25) we need help with cleaning, gardening, some fence painting, making the garden escape free for the cats, some DIY Halloween projects while the weather is good, maybe paint the bathroom and other DIY projects.
Our apartment is in 2 stories, kitchen at the bottom, bathroom, rooms and garden upstairs. Garden needs planting and re-planting things. We got a little greenhouse and try to have many veggies and fruit even with limited space due to a large trampoline taking up most of the space. Also working on painting rocks for a birdbath set-up.
Thanks to previous Work Awayers the fence has been painted and still looks great but there are a few places we didnt get to.
I am a massage therapist, cosmetologist and user of Doterra essential oils. I am spiritual and enjoy deep conversations.
I also enjoy movies, series and reading when I have the time.
We live in an apartment in a quiet area of Aalborg East close to nature. We love to laugh and play and take little walks. That also means that if we go somewhere you are welcome to come too.
We can talk about how the hours will fit besr for you.
Daily tasks are: put dishes in the dishwasher, keep the kitchen and livingroom tidy.
Other work is cleaning the bathroom, dusting, vacuming and washing the floors. Helping me organize/throw things away and DIY projects.
Eliza loves books, a bit of rough play(jumping, dancing, being liftet), her computer, makeup, dressing up. Also the playground with the slide or her own slide in our garden but especially her trampoline that she got for her 3rd birthday. In the beginning she may take some time to get to know you so let her come to you.
She is bilingual(Danish and English).
I try to take the workawayers to see things around here or even a bit further away.
You are: Positive, helpful, can see things that needs to be done without me telling you, fast learner, not attached to your phone all day, preferably 22+, want to learn to do things differently than what you are used to.
Rules of our home:
We communicate
We help eachother
Turn off WiFi for the night or when we are out(to save on electricity but mostly to protect from the radiation. Especially animals are affected by that).
Turn off the lights when we leave a room.
Whipe off the metal in the shower after use.
Fill up washing machine and dishwasher.
Minimal use of perfumes.
We eat organic and plantbased(Eliza 100%), for the animals and the planet. We also recycle as much as possible, save on electricity(turn off the light when we are not in the room and turn off the WiFi during the night) and water when possible(In Denmark we pay for the water coming out but we also pay for what goes down the drain so double cost). Fill up the dishwasher and washing machine before we start it.
Welcome to our green home.

What else ...
🏙 Aalborg is with its 135.000 inhabitants the 4th largest city in Denmark. Aalborg is a city with a lot of young people studying, so there are a lot of offers and possibilities for young people. Aalborg has everything you need and has a lot of opportunities for activities:
🚏 sightseeing,
🚶♀️walking,
🏛 good library,
🌳 parks,
💸shopping,
💒 churches,
⛩museums,
🦓 zoo,
🏊♀️ swimming-center
⛸ Ice skating in winter
🎼 concerts,
🦹♀️carnival in may
⛵️ Regatta in June
🧙cinema,
🏟 football
🎠amusement park Fårup sommerland (1 hour away)
🎉Music-events in the summer
🌲 Small Christmas-marked in december
Besides Aalborg in close-ish proximety is also Skagen the top of Denmark and one of the only places in the world where 2 oceans meet. Near there is also the sanded church. Only the tower is still visible, the rest is burried under the sand. We also have the biggest moving Dune in Denmark, Råbjerg Mile. On the West Coast there are many bunkers left from WWII . Some of those you can actually climb in to a small room.
Feel free to check visitaalborg.com for more or visitnordjylland.com for the Nothern region.
🚍 we live approx 7 km from city center. Public transport in Denmark is quite good, and buses stop close to our home.
✈️ Aalborg has an international airport you can travel directly to or from Aalborg to some other European countries. If you are planning to arrive by plane then please check the price to go directly to Aalborg from your destination.
🚞 It takes about 4-5 hours to travel from Copenhagen airport (Kastrup) to Aalborg by car or train and approx 4-5 hours from Billund airport. check prices for the train on DSB website or Flixbus.
I will mostly be able to Pick workawayers up from Aalborg airport or bus/trainstation.
🚘 Check out GoMore (car-sharing) to see if you can travel budget to your next destination in Denmark - or if you are lucky maybe somewhere in Europe. Or flixbus.dk for cheap bustickets.A little more information

She always had a moment for my daughter when she needed it which was also much appreciated.… read more
She shared a lot of things and I am very grateful. Whether it’s Danish culture, recipes, reflections on parenting, small trips, knowledge about essential oils and a lot more.
I stayed with the family for two weeks. As examples, here are some activities that I was able to do like 'work': cooking,… read more
Very willing to help at any time and went above and beyond in a currently bad time for my back.
My daughter really liked her and she was great at playing with her.
Nora is welcome back any time.
We loved having her with us. She was eager to learn and was great at playing with my daughter as well as other work.
She left over a month ago and my daughter still talks about hermed We are looking forward to seeing her next week for a visit.
Anne Mette welcomed me very well. She is a really good person, very generous, who cares about others.
She has a lot of experience to share from her many trips. I discovered the culture of Denmark and other countries thanks to her.… read more
I stayed a bit 2 weeks with this family during the Christmas holidays and I had a truly wonderful experience. Though this was my second time using workaway, I still did not know what to expect but they welcomed with open arms and made me feel like one of the family.
Mette told me that she would pick me up at the airport when I arrived,… read more
Communication was hard though and we had to use Google translate every now and then. I think half the time she did not understand what I was saying, and didnt reply. Maybe she thought I was saying something… read more
The language barrier was defenitely an obsticle but we made due with sinple english, hands and Google translate. I do feel her english improved while she was here.
We would like to have kept her longer and she is always welcome back.
It was also great that she is mainly plantbased aswell.
We would welcome her back.
