  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We like to meet people from diverse backgrounds. We moved to Norway from The Netherlands, and keep discovering more and more hidden gems in our beatiful region and would really like to share those experiences. We're actively trying to learn Norwegian, and if you're a beginner too, please join us in conversation practice.

  Help

  There are a few little projects we would like to do around the house this summer: some tasks in the garden, upgrading the chicken coop, some painting.
  
  For the month of September we're looking for someone who can help take care of the chickens when we're not home.
