    Description

    We are living in the suburbs of Bruges, a beautiful touristic city in Belgium. There are many hiking and cycle routes in the area. Belgian coast is only 30 minutes away, the same as Ghent. Other cities as Antwerp and Brussels is only 1 hour away. We have a nice garden to enjoy, there is bus service to city centre and railway station. There are only 2 of us living in our house. We live close to the railway station, 10 min by bus or bike.

    The frame of our windows is in wood. Every 8 years we have to paint it again. The wood need to be sanded/scrubbed, degreased, the edge of the glass needs to be taped and then there is the painting. We want to do this work together with some workawayers. We can show how to do this work. It is the outside side of the windows, so we can only do the work when it is not raining
    Also some gardening work of weeding.
    And cleaning the windows inside and outside of the house; some vacuuming and cleaning of the floor inside the house.
    Main work is the painting of the windows.
