My name is Annette.
I am 48 and a teacher but work at a living farm museum with a shop and a cafe, where I sell all the foodproducts from Bornholm and serve coffee and nice cakes.
I live on my own, have 3 kids in the age from 13-21. They live in Copenhagen and my daughter comes here every second weekend and holidays.
i have just bought a big farm, situated close to Gudhjem, with a fantastic garden with birdlife and amazing view to Christians Ø. The farm goes back to 1825, but here where another house before that, people lived here since the middelage.
In the garden runs Kobbe å and during spring and fall trouts goes there, it should be the best place to catch trouts.
The buildings are all made in the old tradition and handcraft and is very well preserved.
The garden has many big 200 years old trees and has been left unattended for 3 years, so it need to be put back to how it was.
I need help for light renovating indoor, especially painting and decorating. I also need help in the garden and there is a lot of cleaning in the farthers.
depending on your skills there will be different tasks to do:-)
I hope you find my description of me and my place interesting and hope to see you.
I offer you a room for sleeping access to kitchen and bath and common room. You will work 4 hours a day and keep yourself with food.
I will welcome you in the periode from 1. august-30. october 2018.

you will get to know the island of Bornholm,it is 2 kilometers from the Østersø. with a nice beach and the old town of Gudhjem, meet a lot of openhearted people, learn and exchange about the old handcraft on a farm and the materials they used back then. You will learn about the nature life on this beautiful and very special spot on Bornholm.

I have many small projects.
1: Paint 6-8 windows and a door outside
2:! small room needs to take down old wallpaper and put new up and paint the woodwork.
3: The kitchen need to be painted and also the woodwork.
4: Panels at the entre need to painted.

And there are many more taks depending on the skills of the workers and what they prefer to do and like to do. If there is an artist, who is doing beautiful paintings, it could be to decorate a wall in one of the rooms, if there is an carpenter, maybe he could do an outdoor bench. it depends of their skills. All of the work is for me private and

A room with access to kitchen, bath and common room and the garden off course:-)
You will take care and pay for your own food.

You will have free wifi. When you have the time off, you can borrow one of my bikes and bike around the island. just look up Bornholm and you will get so many opportunities to do here. lots of nature, wildlife, hicking, biking, climbing,history back to the middelage and off course archeology and stones and rocks. I like people to feel at home in my house. They have to be tidy and proper, clean after them selves, it is not a partyzone, but a place to work, relax, show respect to other people and privacy.
