Description
I live with my little boy in Meulebeke (in between Ghent and Bruges). We live near the center but it's very quiet here during the week, but you have the possibility to do a beautiful walk or bicycle road. Train station is easy to reach with the bus. Ghent is 30 min with train and Bruges also.
We are looking for people to do some babysitting in the evening or some daily chorus like cooking or gardening (in good weather). Food and accommodation are free and helping hours is max 3 hours a day / 5 days a week, free during the weekend (or flexible to change with week days, whatever you want). We prefer non-smokers or smokers who are ok with smoking outside.
We need an honest and reliable person who is good with children!
I teach yoga and pilates and other fit classes and work at the University in Ghent,, so if you want to join some sportsclasses ... yoga teachers, pilates teachers or massage therapists are for sure VERY welcome, you can teach a class or give massages (then better stay for long term)
Also mostly welcome if you can build a website and help with promoting on facebook and instagram...
Also good photographers or film makers are very welcome.
I travelled a lot so i can help you with information about the countries I visited (Turkey, Spain, Italy, Greece, Germany, Holland, France, India, Cambodja, Laos, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Maleisie, Singapore, Indonesie, Los Angeles, ...)
I prefer long term stay of at least 1 month!
Also foreign students are welcome to stay in our home!
.
Hope to welcome you in our house...
