    Description

    Hi,
    My name is Loes Sinkeler and I have a 5 year old daughter.
    We live together with four cats, a dog, three chicken and 2 horses. We have moved to Normandy since Januari 2020 and I am a waldorfschool teacher and a forestschool teacher. I like working in the garden. I also have a sjamanic background.
    My daughter is very outgoing, she loves to explore nature and also dress up like a prinses. She climbs trees and loves animals.

    I need help with garding, my daughter and the animals. I have loats of apple trees, walnuts, and various fruits. But the maintenance is a lot of work.
    I live by the edge of a magnificent forest.
    My projects will be as ecological as possible. I have a Waldorf background and value nature.
    I love to create together with nature and try to create a balance.

    I'm from Holland and speak Dutch, English, a little German and I'm learning French.
