I own a small old house , she is built in 1830, and she (we) need help.
This house is seated , 2 feet away from the ocean on an island called Reinøya.( quite close to Tromsoe.) 1,5 hours drive.
You can go there by car and ferry,or by local boat (30 minutes)from the senter of Tromsoe.
My small house needs a lot of things;
kitchen,bathroom, painting, etc,etc
I am doing almost everything alone.
While working progress, we use a caravan as housing. The caravan is nice and cozy, quite warm too.
I have no water, but collects water from our neighbour.
I need people with practical skills,
people who knows what needs to be done or able to work alone.

I truly wish him all the best.
Der andre hadde klaget på komfort og primitive kår, gikk hun på med humør og interesse.
Hun er sosial , intelligent og har et vinnende vesen, som hun gledelig deler med menneskene rundt seg.
Vi vil savne henne her i nord-norge og håper hun kommer tilbake snart.
