  We have a lovely camper trailer set up on the farm with a kitchen that has everything you need.
  You are to supply your own breakfast and lunch but it’d be nice if dinners could be done together sometimes we would cook or sometimes you could cook some meals from your country.
  
  We would love someone to do 15 hours a week and share some evening meals.
