    Description

    few days late february



    . THIS IS A NONPAID VOLUNTEER place.
    OBS!! The place is not close to helsinki as shown on the map(can't get it changed), my place is close to Jakobstad (4 hrs from helsinki) closest airport is vaasa or kokkola.

    Hi everyone! Iam looking for someone (one or 2-3persons) that would be willing to take care of my animals
    and house for a few days
    ~27.2 - 3 /4 . 3 )

    The main task is to walk the dog and hang out with him. He is 2 yrs so he has quite some energy and needs about 5-8 kms walk everyday. Besides that he is a sweet and cuddly dog ♡ also feed the cats and the bunnies.

    The house has 2 floors, 3 bedrooms, kitchen,livingroom, 1 toilet and a bathroom. It is not fancy, but decent.you get warm water by heating a boiler (not sure if that is the right word)

    There is no bus routes from here. The house is in between two cities, 20 minutes to Jakobstad and 30 minutes to Kokkola. It is 30 minutes to the ocean with beautiful beaches (even in winter with ice on the seas) The house is within walking distance to beautiful forests. There is a big chance for u to spot the northern lights!
    You need to have a driverslisence so you can get to the store, sightseeing and so on, you can borrow my car! If you are flying in to helsinki you will need to buy a trainticket to get here to pietarsaari. easiest would be to fly to vaasa or kokkola.

    Me myself is a 29 year old woman living on my own on the countryside. I love knitting, hiking, friends and family. I love traveling and meeting new ppl. I have been on workaway myself, to colombia before corona hit.


    Let me know only if you are seriously interested coming to my place.
    Best regaards Lena
