Find your perfect host
Details
Description
I inherited a house at Dovre, which is a village in the mountains between Oslo and Trondheim. But it needs some simple maintenance: Painting, cleaning, recovering the garden, etc. But it is too much for my life and me. The house is close to two national parks, with end-less hiking opportunities. So, it is a perfect place for anyone who like that. You can either hike with me, or I can show you some hidden gems. The house is also not far from some of the most iconic Norwegian fjords.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
First of all, it is an opportunity to experience nature, with hikes, wild animals, etc. I have worked as a leadership coach and mentor for companies in several countries. I am good at helping people launch business ideas. I know some German but not very well. So, if you speak it then I would love to practice. I can of course teach Norwegian or English.
Help
Simple maintenance tasks: Painting, cleaning, recovering the garden, cleaning, removing stuff, etc. I do not expect that much help from you, and no difficult tasks. If you know some carpentry, then that is an extra bonus for me. If you like to cook, the we can do it together.

Nature, nature, and more nature. Apart from that it is mainly chatting in fornt of the fireplace, reading books, playing board games or use the sauna. This is a place for slow living, not lots of organized activities. It is a little bit too far south for the Northern lights. but sometimes we can see it
