Description
Hi ! I'm a carpenter with 35 years experience in the building/renovation industry. I am also competent when it comes to plumbing and electrics. Gardening, cleaning, animal care, anything manuel are all things I am comfortable doing.
I have 3 grown up autonomous children, so I have more time to do my own thing these days.
I do a lot of XC mountainbiking which helps me stay in shape. I am physically active, open minded and interested in most things.
I also have a sense of humour and like to play board games.
I am interested in helping hosts with eco, non profit and/or 'community' type projects.
I am uninterested in helping people refurbish their 2nd homes or mainten their AirB+B's. -
