Description
I live on Samsoe, a small island close to Aarhus.
My stone henge was finished last summer with help from a workawayer, so now the job is to fill the place with wild flowers to attract butterflies. My garden is old and part of a 'Butterfly Island'-projekt.
House maintenance and stacking firewood - I'm dreaming of building a round stack - is also tasks to do.
Samsø is a fantastic place to hike, bike, swim, eat fresh vegetables and meet creative people 🌸
My own creativity finds its outlet in photography, paper, singing, knitting, cooking, gardening and the house.
If you have an art project, you are welcome to work on it here. -

Help
This summer the Butterfly Garden is the focus - sow and plant plants for the butterflies - both host plants and nectar plants as part of a 'Butterfly Island'-projekt.
I also have firewood to stack, grass to cut, pears and apples to pick in autumn, minor maintenance projects to do ...
A handy-wo/man will always find things to do ☺️
I’m open to creative ideas -

She worked effectively with humor and curiosity.
We had a lot of interesting talks and exchanges of opinion.
And she is a great chef in the kitchen - made a very tasty Croatian meal - in cooperation with her grandfather on the phone :-)
It’s very easy to work together with Helga - she’s so nice and knows a lot about growing and caring of plants.
She gets my best recommendations.
Thank you so much for the wonderful time.
