Description

I am a writer (published three novels) and a special needs teacher (Master of Education) by profession. I have studied in art school too.
I have worked as volunteer in few Finnish farms when I was young and after that I always dreamed about volunteering abroad. Now the time has come since my own children are adults. I have lots of working experience on many fields and I am used to physical work too. I have lived in an old farm house for several years, so all kinds of household/farm/garden/animal etc. work is very familiar to me.
As a writer and artist I have creativity and ability to involve in different kinds of art projects. I have done community art projects with elderly. I play some classical guitar too.
I love bouldering and would love to learn rock climbing.

My husband Gildas is a professional academy trained footballer from Benin. He used to play in Ghana and had tournaments in France and Nigeria. His native language is Sahoé and he speaks fluent French, English and Mina. He has a little garden in Benin and we are changing it into organic one. Gildas is strong and used to physical work and hard training. He has some traditional healing massage skills and is an excellent masseur. Helpful, polite, trustworthy and kind, happy soul are the words that describe him well.

More details about your skills

By this age I have done so many different things that it feels impossible to name all my skills, therefore I will tell only few. F.ex. I can draw and paint, I´m good with kids, I can cook pretty well, take care of animals and even milk goats if necessary. I love gardening. I can hunt with a shotgun, do academic research, chop firewood and use the beer botteling machine.
