    Description

    Welcome!

    I´m a teacher living and working in the city of Gothenburg for some years now. I know the city really well and have found some favourite spots when it comes to everything from "fika" to nature and culture.
    Currently I'm living in smaller house with a 150 sqm garden. At this place I try to grow some vegetables and fruits, however to garden is in need of some work. On my vaccation I'm planning to take care of this and I would be very happy to find somebody who whats to partly help me with gardening and partly experience the city of Gothenburg.

    On my spare time I also volounteer in DIY bike workshop. This organisation is non-profit and tries to help people to choose biking over cars plus teach them how to fix stuff instead of buying new. If wanted, I would also be glad to introduce you to this project and teach you some how to fix bikes. It is possible for you to make your own bike free of charge.

    It should be mentioned about my place that it is a bit small. My house is roughly 23 sqm with two floors. The sleeping arrangements will be made in order to maximize privacy but I cannot offer a private room with a door to close in order to be alone. This has however not been any problem for previous guest and I have hosted several travellers at this place with very positive experience.
    Preferably I take guest for a maximum stay of seven days.

    Contact me if you got any questions and take care.
    Cheers
    Daniel
