Description
I have two kids (9 + 14), two dogs and two cats. I am a journalist, writer and podcast producer. We live in an old house with a big garden in Skøyen, very close to the city center. And I am stressed out. Please come help 😄🙏

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This is the perfect spot to explore the city of Oslo. I live 2 min walk to the tram, or you could use my bike. We also live close to the airport express train. We’ve been traveling a lot and both my kids speak English. I love for them to practice, and you will get to learn about our culture and practice your English or Norwegian too.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
I always need help with housekeeping, cleaning and cooking. My kids are getting bigger now, and what I need the most is super boring tidying up and cleaning the house. Also, when we travel, I need someone staying here and taking care of the dogs and cat.. It is not the most exciting work, but you would be highly appreciated and hopefully enjoy the location!
I have my own podcast company, and I work a lot.
(NB! I have one very bad review. This was a guy who stayed here for 6 months, and during this time he got a paid job and started working, not having the energy to help me out - he just stayed like a kid, which is the last thing I need in my life, another kid to clean and cook for. I therefore asked him to leave before he wanted to go, and he didn´t like that.)
