Description

Hi!
I am a Dutch-Brazilian lady (54) living in Bornholm since August. As a massage therapist, I am interested in all sorts of healing and wellbeing, healthy food etc. Because I speak several languages (Portuguese and English fluently, plus Norwegian and some Danish), I am also interested in tourism. I have experience in B&B, gardening and art projects. I do some handcraft myself (felting).
I am in Rønne, and would like to experience more of Bornholm.

Lygia, oh Lygia! Such a bubbly personality! She came to my garden twice this year, and both times she brought with her an amazing energy and life spark. I enjoyed having her here, and she was super helpful with many tasks.

I stayed at Andreas' paradise 2x, because it is impossible to visit him only once! The place is simple but ultra beautiful. The food... oh, the food! Amazing. From the biggest hotel-like breakfast with homemade yoghurt and all-you-can-eat, to the delicious and creative meals prepared by him, you are in for a gastronomic treat. The atmosphere is … read more

It has been truly wonderful having Liv around. She brings a calm, positive energy and is always a pleasure to talk to—our conversations have been both engaging and thoughtful.

Marten´s instructions were clear and he seemed to have a complete trust in us, which provided me with the perfect environment to work, take initiative and … read more
