Description
I am a 38 yo traveller that have now decided to settle down for a while and do what I love (working with tourists) and it takes alot of my time. Therefore we (me and my sambo Henrik) ask for some help around the house, help shopping, cleaning rooms, prepare breakfast, gardening, take care of our animals etc. I have been taking helpers now for about 7 years and love to host. I am a social person and I will take you around the island when we have time. You must be ok with being far away from city life. Its all about nature here :) There is a hostel down the road here who host helpers from around the world especially in the summer so there will be more travellers around if you feel social,
