Hello :)
I have just bought a farm in beautiful Norway, Rendalen. We will have loads of projects coming up:
Painting walls, building fences for chickens, vegetable garden, Changing the outside of the house (planks), beekeeping and workshops. If you stay here, all workshops are free.
Workshops we plan for are:
Woodwoking, Beekeeping/ Building Beehives, Growing your own vegetables (also if you live in the city), woodworking course, making Dreamcatchers (for kids) and fishing rods (kids), fishing etc. I even have a circus school planned!
I will require help to maintain the houses here, like painting and woodwork (putting down a new floor, building shelves etc.) Women/ girls and men/ boys are welcome :)
I homeschool my children and we spend time outside a lot. Tent-trips and exploring Norwegian countryside and nature can be offered.
I would love for you to be part of this family, althugh I do need my private time as I work from home.
Cool if you like dogs and kids!
I am a skateboarder, gamer, nerd, dreamer and doer, explorer and so much more :-)
