    Ok so coming from a country where we had a garden as big as a poststamp to a garden as big as 2 football fields is quite a challenge. We need help with cleaning it out but also to create cosy corners, small chill platforms and make this a coherent place. So if you like to Help outside and also like to use wood and or gardening tools you are more than welcome.

    They can have breakfast and or lunch in there own apartment I will buy some basics, bread, cheese koffie tea, yogurt etc and we can cook together at night in the weekend they can cook by themselves

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    I think having a car is a must cause we live in tne country side, the nearest bus station in 25 min walk, but with a car its a 5 min drive, we live like 4 km from Lagos. Lagos and the surroundings have everything you possibly want. Nature, beaches (we live 900 mt from the beach) bars, restaurants, golf, yoga, surf, padel, and a very lanrge international comunity.
