Well I teach them about woodman skills, bushcraft and language and you will staying in a beautiful country with amazing nature and wild life, nice evenings around the campfires nice hikes This year if all goes well I have a boat that people can use for fishing and swimming. Further i teach how to used all the woodwork machines, planers thickeners , saw-table etc. chainsaw and mill and only when and if I am convinced that you can handle yourself good with those i let you work on them alone, for the chainsaws you need to use the special clothes and boots that I provide for safety. I will teach you woodworking, welding and bushcraft or if you better than me lol you can teach me. I love that people can think for themselves and find a solution for the problems they face. if it is wrong... well lesson learned and we redo it my way. without making mistakes we cannot learn.

I had some misfortune with my health, but now i try to setup a bushcraft school in Norway and I need help with building a good path till the waterfalls, help with building base-camps on the property that is 9000 mål big with mountains lakes and forrest and river, in the future building log- or off grit cabins a six-corned cabin with fire place, setup parachute camp etc , but for now most the paths , a bridge and setup good fens with the wood we find in my forrest, I can teach or being thought how the things going to be done. I tried to get it done on my own, but it is growing a bit above me. 2024 has to target to buildup an raise up all the beds in the garden, build an outdoor shower preferable with hot and cold water, improve the electricity in the garage In 2019 we successfully build one of those prospector cabins and i stayed in there in the winter time it was warm and comfortable. but now the walls and roof are solid, the interior needs still some tlc, but all the materials are there.and many more small but fun projects that we can build together, like improve or rebuild parts of the main camp, some work on the greenhouse, making a water source that can feed the shower and the water the greens. and if the weather allows many fires bbq etc.

Alojamiento
I live up in the mountains of Valdres, not to far from me are the famous Jotunheimen and bitihorn where the snow is on top the whole year, there is the biggest open museum from Norway in Fagernes etc. etc. i have an old but charming house, that needs some tlc, but there are two bedrooms and a shared shower, you can setup your camper, tent or teach you to build a A frame with a rope matras, or help me to build a rustiek off grit cabin on the site where you can stay in. Most people stayed in the base camp they really loved that, but for the diehards when the cold starts they can stay in the cabin as well.
Algo más...
there is from the main airport a good bus connection to Fagernes or a train till Gol and then a bus till Fagernes, Fagernes is a half hour drive and Dokka or gjovik well under an hour so there is plenty to see or do. This year if all goes well I have a boat that people can use for fishing and swimming.

The work wasn’t hard at all. Marc doesn’t like to exploit people and is open to teach things you’re not familiar with. There is a lot you can learn from him since he’s done so much in life.
Marc can be a bit direct at times (typical Dutch directness (: ), but he takes very good care of the people… read more

Marco wants to built up a bushcraft camp. So we stay in the forest, cutting trees, making fire (cooking coffee :P ), building camp walls and beds. But actually it wasn't work; it was more like learning practical skills and getting… read more
