  • Description

    Hello dear Hosts,.
    After finishing a long term contract of work with the Land Conservancy of British Columbia at Home,. in Canada,.. I have been traveling on an off for the last 6 years,.
    . It has more or less become a lifestyle for me, for the time being,. and I have loved just about every minute of it.

    . . . A bit about myself;
    I am a mature woman,. mother of University student who now is married and lives in Norway. I am in good health with happy dispositions,. My friends and acquaintances could describe me as calm, cheerful, patient, efficient and off course reliable.
    (I guess you could say it comes with many years of practice, hahaha.)

    My general work experience implies the mastering of a few basic skills.
    Among other things,. I have cared for and looked after plants through different jobs and personal businesses for many decades ;
    . . landscaping,. classic gardens restoration,. bed designing,. plants reproduction and maintenance. Lately my passion has been "foodscaping" , using vegie plants as ornamental items in interesting organic garden design.

    I was also a painting contractor for a few years, and can manage small repairs of many kinds. One thing I enjoy and am pretty good at, is organizing or re-organizing work areas, such as tool sheds,. kitchens, or offices, in a functional way,. with a flair for cozy and warm atmosphere added on,. ( no matter what condition the place is in, to start with. I will bring it back to a pleasant work space I guarantee you will be very pleased with 😉 )

    That's about it for the basics, . I also have a TEFL certificate and have taught English in many countries with great pleasure .

    , All this said, I do hope that my humble skills and experience could be of good use in your projects,. and endeavors, and I am very much looking forward to hear from you !

    Warm Regards
    Louise
