  • Description

    Greetings from Estonia!

    We are a Christian couple, married for 2 years.
    We are traveling to Spain, because my wife is a Tallinn University andragogy (adult education) student and is doing her semester abroad In Mondragon University, so we found it wise to travel together. We are looking for an accomodation for the time being. And because most of the time she would need to go to university and to study , I can offer help around your home.

    Aleks: I am motivated by doing things that include traveling, hiking, long and deep conversations about life overall, living naturally in nature, helping in projects that are of common good, helping people in need and working in an environment where different tasks are built up efficiently. Tied to the latter I also enjoy finding solutions to everyday problems to make them more sustainable and easy-going.
    Sigrid: I like working and being in nature and with animals. I also enjoy dancing and swimming.

  • More details about your skills

    Aleks: I am open to all kinds of tasks that need to be done and willing to learn, even if it might not be comfortable for me.
    I am more inclined to do outdoor tasks like cutting trees, sawing, gardening, growing food, mowing and trimming the grass.
    I have experience in construction and also I like working in heights. I worked half a year as a solar panel installer for common households (on roofs) and 10 years as an adventure park instructor.
    Recently I have been a worker in Baltic States biggest solar farm in Estonia, so I am accustomed to working in rough weather, heat or cold, rain or snowfall. These conditions are no strangers to me but always a welcoming challenge to endure.
    I like hosting and cooking food. I also have a big heart for animals and ofcourse tending for their needs.

    Sigrid: Recently I have been working in a cattle farm. I also have experience in social work like babysitting, teacher and a life coach.
    Because of my time in university I have limited resources to help around the house but whenever I am on time with my school tasks I can lend a hand around the house.

  • What else ...

    Aleks: I would like to adress the smoking part. I have been battling it for some time now and looking for another chance to get rid of it. One time I managed 1 month free, but as life has been busy and I have not had a suitable environment and time to come clean from it, I have relapsed.
    I am not a tobacco smoker anymore but have transferred to a little vape that doesnt smell basically at all. I am concious about this bad habit and therefore avoid doing it around others.
    I have been hoping to travel to a naturally beautiful area for a longer time so maybe there I could kick that habit by the support of the nature, sceneary and more relaxed day to day living.
