Description
I own a farm located in beautiful surroundings In Nore i Numedal. Despite I have no livestock, I have lot to do and will be glad if I got some help. The help will mostly be to make firewoods, helping in the garden with growing different vegetables, go fishing (I use fishing nets, and its easier if you can row the boat) and general maintance. I live here mostly by my self, but have often visit from mine daughters and their mother.
The farm is nearby a lake, and I have a dream to make this area a nice place for bathing and recreation.
