    Description

    Hello all.
    We are a family of 5. Mother Maria, Father Tomas and our 3 kids, living on a farm house from 1784.
    The house is 35 minutes North of Copenhagen by car, in an area called Humlebæk.
    We work with music and film, and we love to stay in the country side.
    We are looking for guests who would help us in our garden. it´s very big and we like to make it beautiful.
    So outside in the garden 4 hours a day working with me and Maria, and sometimes the kids.
    We love food and nice wine, and we love to stay outside, and make a BBQ.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We love to travel and have visited more than 50 countries. We work around Denmark and would love to bring the student with us on work tours. We have a small music festival twice a year on our land, with 4-5 different bands plying in the garden. The music festival is normally in May and June. Our kids all speak English and 2 of them have french in their school. So it could be fantastic with a person that speaks french, so we could all practice a little bit.
