Travel information

I am currently

Description

I travel with intention of making meaningful connections and offering something back to the communities that welcome me.

I am travelling the world, mainly doing housesitting and petsitting on my way, as I truly enjoy spending time with animals and pets.

In whatever way possible I’ll try my best to provide the service that will be of most benefit to you.

I’ve done one Workaway assignment before, and can provide a review, but I have many reviews on Trustedhousesitters, and on Airbnb.

More details about your skills

I have worked in hospitality for many years, renting out my own apartments in Oslo. It gave me much joy to greet and interact with guests as well as preparing their stay. I did the cleaning and preparing, washed and changed the beds, as well as offered my company and advice when needed. I have done construction work on my own apartment, like taking down walls, setting up new ones, fixing door handles, laying new wooden parquette floors. I love gardening, and in the last apartment where I lived i did work cutting grass, selecting and planting new plants. I can take care of dogs and other animals, water plants, fixing bikes etc.
