    Hello, fellow travelers and adventurers!

    I’m excited to open our home to those looking to experience life in the city center while helping out with the house chores.
    It includes take care of the the beds, cleaning, laundry.

    This is a friendly environment, good for those that wants to combine work with city explorations.

    I’ve been a volunteer myself, and I know how meaningful and fun it can be! I’ve traveled to 22 countries across all continents, and I’m fluent in 6 languages. Beyond traveling, I work as a software engineer, so if you’re someone who shares a love for coding or software development, we might have a lot to chat about.

    This could be a great chance to exchange experiences, whether about travel, tech, or culture. I’m happy to provide tips about the city or share my stories from around the world. And who knows? You might pick up a few new tech tricks too!

    Looking forward to meeting like-minded people who enjoy balancing some work with meaningful conversation and cultural exchange.

    My place is located in Oslo Sentrum, a vibrant area right in the heart of the city. Oslo is known for its modern architecture, scenic views of the Oslo Fjord, and its famous public seawater pool – perfect for a refreshing swim during the warmer months!

    On your time off, you’ll have easy access to some of the best sights in Oslo. Here are a few options:

    • The Oslo Opera House: Just a short walk away, this architectural gem offers a stunning view of the city from its roof.
    • Akershus Fortress: A historical site that’s great for those interested in Norway’s medieval history.
    • Barcode Project: A unique collection of modern skyscrapers, ideal for photography lovers.
    • Vigeland Park: A must-visit for art enthusiasts, featuring over 200 sculptures by Gustav Vigeland.
    • Munch Museum: Explore the works of the famous Norwegian artist, Edvard Munch.
    • Sørenga is well-connected by public transport, making it easy to explore the rest of the city. You can catch buses, trams, or even take a bike ride along the waterfront. And with Oslo Central Station close by, you’ll also have quick access to regional trains and more buses to explore other parts of Norway.

    If you enjoy outdoor activities, Oslo’s forested areas and islands are a short ferry or bus ride away, where you can hike, kayak, or enjoy the tranquility of nature.
