  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am interested in cultural exchange, social gatherings, and learning about other cultures. I am also interested in speaking English. We can live, cook, and celebrate together. I am interested in a respectful and friendly relationship. We try to be self-sufficient. In my large garden, I grow many different kinds of fruit—all varieties that thrive in our climate—and vegetables, and I don't use any pesticides. We are about 80 percent self-sufficient in fruit and vegetables. I make the fruit into jam or preserve it in other ways. I enjoy traditional cooking and baking and am happy to do so together. We like playing board games and sitting together and talking. There's a swimming pool and a small heated pool where we like to spend time. We also enjoy the sauna and steam room. We don't use fossil fuels and heat everything with wood or solar power. I also have a large flower garden, mainly roses, which bring me great joy.
