    We are a family of four. Me, my husband, my son 15, and my daughter 12. We live in a house with a big garden, about 4 km outside of the city. Busses go every 30 minutes, but it is also a nice hike to walk into town. We are a Dutch/ Norwegian family and like to be outdoors.

    We need help with weeding the garden. We might do some upgrading on our boathouse. We might lay some pavement in our driveway. We need another layer of paint on our garage.
    It is also nice to get help with common household chores like cooking, cleaning and laundry.
