    Description

    I live on the wonderful island Bornholm / Denmark in the Baltic Sea, and I am a positive thinking woman who moved from Germany to Denmark about thirty years ago.
    In many years I preferred living in communes, but since 20 years I live on my own small farm in the countryside and Bornholm. I have 3 horses, 2 bordercollies and 2 cats.
    I was working as a farmer, teacher,and socialpadagog, but now I am retired and like meeting people from different countries and cultures.
    My daughter lives now in Copenhagen with her family and spends sometimes holidays or weekends here, and I love to leave the Island in between to experience something different. I need somebody to help me with the animals, around the house and garden. Often I need somebody for house sitting.

    I am from Germany, but I have lived many years in Denmark. On the island you can meet people from different nationalities. I know quite much about the social and political situation in Denmark, and you can visit many cultural interesting places on Bornholm. Is is easy to move around the island with buses and you can borrow bicycles on my place.
