    Description

    I live in my Tinyhouse and in 2020 I moved it to a place that needs some love :)
    My name is Julia (47), I have lived in a ecovillage and several communities, and I have traveled a lot, visited many permaculture places around the world. I love natural medisin, wild eatables and secondhand bargins :)

    I can host two people. You will have your own old simple house, there is 2 rooms that is your private space, a kitchen and there is bathroom that I also use. In the garden there is a woodburning sauna and a fireplace. You can borrow my bikes to get around.

    There is forest around here for walks, and 35min walk to the ocean to swim. Nesodden has lots of beaches, cafes and very nice people. Possibility to rent kajak, camp by the ocean, ride horse, festivals....It is 7min walk to the bus, this takes you to Nesoddtangen in 30min and from there 20min ferry to Oslo, Aker brygge

    This is a place with no drugs or alcohol. Also no perfume in any form (in products like soaps / cosmetics), no incense and no strong essential oils (like lavendel, rose ect)
    There is water shortage, so short showers and careful use of water is needed :)

    My tinyhouse still has things unfinished, and I would love some help with this. Also the garden and the old house needs some work, plus shop wood for winter.


    Different tasks we might do:
    Painting tinyhouse
    Build woodshelter roof
    Split wood
    Build fence
    Garden (herbs,greens, flowers)
    Cutting gras
    Build furniture tinyhouse
    Creating more beautiful fireplace
    Building compost toilet
    Dreaming of building bathroom in Tinyhouse (any plumbers out there? :)
    Harvest wild eatables and vegetables from biodynamic neighbor farm
