    Description

    Hello, we are Jannes and Annoeska and we live in our own Lowlands Paradise! That is a wonderful place in a very small village called Lageland, just a stone's throw away from the pleasant city of Groningen.
    We have a large garden and there are always so many projects to do. Think of maintaining the vegetable garden, weeding weeds, maybe installing a fence, taking care of the chickens, sometimes painting or doing other jobs to make our paradise even more fun.
    There are two of us and we both have a normal job in addition to all our plans, so we could use some help.
