    Description

    Wow, it is almost eight years ago, that summer where I hosted some workawayers. It was a garden project I had going on back then. It was a nice experience to have some young people over, from different countries, with different stories.

    So this summer I would like to host again. Hopefully it will be as nice an experience as it was in 2015 :) During july and august I plan on refreshing the inside of my house. The work will include stripping some paint from an outside wall, cleaning up my little citygarden and inside painting the doors, walls and ceilings.

    I will not allways be at home, some mornings I will be at work. So from time to time you will be on your own.
