I am a woman taking care of some old houses and changing them for accommodation.
Right now we need some skilful help with repairing a minor water damage in one of our apartments. So if you happen to have skills and time you are welcome asap :)
I am living in a romantic wooden house and a big garden in a peaceful town KOKKOLA in Finland. I live here with my creative daughter and a friendly cat Lilli. We are always in need of help taking care of the house and the garden and also of pretty old summerhouse with nature close by almost moving in to the garden :)
We also run a small bed&breakfast to earn our living and I really do love my life❤️
There is a lot of things you can do to help. We also have wifi and of course a sauna or even two-three of them :)
We can offer you definitely a room of you own!

The living in Finland is an opportunity to find a way back to the nature and the quietness what all we people need. It is easy to connect with people. The seaside is close. Kokkola is also an active cultural town with a lot of concerts, rock school, art school, youth center with many different nationalities. We have a nice and big common swimming/spa in the city center with several pools. If you dare we will also introduce the Finnish ice swimming for you. You never want to stop after testing it once :).
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
