Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live at countryside so pure nature is very close to you. There is no neighbours so it's really peaceful. Our nearest neighbour is about 1km away. We invite the workawayer to be a part of our family and share our daily life at our home and at our cottage during the weekends. At our cottage is a traditional finnish sauna and a big lake with a sand beach. We can also show local places and attractions. We love the nature and being in it.

Help
We need help for childcare (not that much because our doughter is in the school during the days and is wery self-imposed person, just that domeone is home when she comes from school) homecare (cleaning, cooking), pet care and some gardening. We expect a self-imposed person who gets in to tasks without us having to explain them repeatedly. Every day is different and it's never boring! You get to meet lot of people and see different kind of homes and ways to live.

My time in Juupajoki has a special place in my heart. Satu and Janne were great hosts and gave me the chance to experience a lot of finnish culture. This place is really beautiful and taking care of the animals and the little rockstar called Suvi brought me a lot of joy. It wasn't easy to leave. 5 stars for you!

My tasks concluded taking care of their smallest child, 3-years old princess Suuvi, cleaning, sometimes gardening. I really enjoyed taking their dogs for walks to the forest. They are very calm… read more
