    Description

    My name is Marjolein, I am a mom and have one child of 15 years of age who is still living with me. I live in the country side. A rural house. I have two rooms available.
    It’s a nice village with lots of nature. The rivers are close by and the dunes also. Nearby cities are
    s’ Hertogenbosch and Tilburg. 40 minutes drive to Utrecht, 60 minutes drive to Amsterdam
    A travelling couple( man/woman) would be my preferred choice and the best fit for the chores.

    Would love to have some extra hands to help me with chores around the house.
    So tasks where I need help:
    - all sorts of little fixing things, maintenance, in and around the house
    - carpentry help, fixing door handles, window frame
    -help cleaning windows
    - help painting
    - help cleaning house
    -help sorting out garage

    There is a bus where you can go everywhere. Country side or cities.
    I am more than open to tell everything about the area. I like walking, so when I am not working, we can go for a walk. Good cook, also Dutch meals. So try it out :)!

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Detached house. You will share everything, like kitchen bathroom. But you will have your own room.
    2 bikes to use.

    Food is included:
    You can have dinner with us. But if you want to cook for yourself, that is also fine. You can have lunch and breakfast. I am vegetarian, but my sun eats meat, so I can cook both.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Would prefer a couple where one of the two is a handyman/woman/builder/carpenter.
    The house is not in a busy area. It is possible to go by bus to other places. If I am at home, would be possible to bring you to a place.
    You will share the house with us (the owners).
