    Description

    Hi! We are Ingeborg and Luca, and Ella and Julian (soon 8 years old). We live in the South-Eastern part of Norway, on a small farm. We have a kitchen garden and a greenhouse where we grow our own vegetables. We are a quite international family, and have traveled and lived in several countries and speak English, Spanish, German, Norwegian, Danish, French and Italian. We would love to have some help with gardening, cooking and maintenance around and inside the house. You get to live in your own small house on the farm, but bathroom and kitchen is inside the main house.
