    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 so.
    Although it is a short stay, let me know if you are interested.

    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.
