  Help

  We are looking for someone who could become another family member and join in on daily tasks around our flat and a little garden attached to it.
  
  Before summer starts we would love to renovate our long forgotten garden and get it usable for the warm months. Taken our busy kids it's very hard to make time and work on such non-kid-friendly space. We would love to find someone that could help us get the mini garden up to a usable shape - rip weeds out, dig some old bushes out, re-do the lawn and so on. We will never expect to work on it alone tho, one of us parents will always give you a hand! It's just so much easier to work in a team🤗

  What else ...

  Interlaken has plenty to offer as an "adventure capital of Europe" and being a town nested in the middle of the Swiss Alps. We would love to help you plan hiking or biking excursions! And join you on them too! Marta is an excellent cook and a baker and would be happy to share some tricks and tips on her favourite recipes. On the other hand Aaron is a passionate white water kayaker and would love to show you all the basics of that adventurous sport!
