    Description

    Hello, I am living in Landgraaf a small town in The Netherlands near Germany and near Belgium. (I am 56 and live here with my cat ) I have a room in my house for someone who would like to help me with some work in the garden and I would love it to exchange about our culture and worldviews. I think tasks are easily done in one week ( few ours a day ). Of course you can use my whole house and cooking together I would like or if you cannot cook I will do it for you
    AT THE MOMENT there is nobody needed because somebody already will come. Maybe in the future there will be hosting possible....

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Because I live a few kilometers from Germany and Belgium you easily can visit those countries from here. There are some old villages which are interesting ( Maastricht and Aachen ) and if you like to walk there is a very nice surrounding not far from here to do so. ( Heuvelland )
    I have worked in a eco village for a few months ( in France ) and are interested in exchange about how to live off grid. I can share the information I gathered about this till now. But if you are not interested in living of grid, you are still welcome! ! It would just be nice if you would have also.
    I speak Dutch and German fluent. English less fluent and a little bit french. And recently I started with Spanish. So talking one of these languages is possible also to learn from each other.

    I live in a small house with a garden. You would have your own room to sleep. We share the bathroom and you can stay in the whole house of course. I do not have a television. I do have wifi.
    I will offer you 3 meals a day and like to discus with you what your preferences are about what you eat. I like to eat biological food and I can take into account if you have some food restrictions.
