  Description

  We are a couple from nice year 1966 living summers in Heinola and winters in Sisily, the Accomondation offered is in our summerhouse witch is located close to Heinola, a nice summer city by a large lake. We have some small jobs to be done as we have been in italy for the past 6 months.
  
  Some nice usual small tasks as chopping wood of gardening or making a pergola is available + of course fishing. We will also teach for you the Real Finnish way of enjoying the summertime away from the hassle of big cities and enjoying the nature and clear waters of our district.
  
  As we are by the lake, you can do swimming, fiching boating, in the nature of course hiking and biking
  ===========
  Tarjoamme majoitusta Heinolassa puhdasvetisen järven rannalla. Oleskelemme italiassa talviajan joten kevään ja alkukesän aikana meillä on mahdollisuus ottaa vastaan vieraita tutustumaan suomalaiseen mökkielämään.
  
  Kevyitä aputöitä riittää esim puiden pilkkomista rantasaunaamme varten tai vaikka pergolan kasaamista. Vapaa aikanasi voit liikkua järvellä tai käydä lähikaupungissamme Heinolassa
  
  Vapaa aikana voit kalastaa, uida ja nauttia puhdasvetisestä järvestä, pyöräillä, patikoida ja vaeltaa. Kyyti lähikaupunkiin onnistuu sovittaessa, pyörälläkin pääsee

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Finland is quite different culture than the rest of northern countries. We have 180.000 lakes and a very long tradition of having a summer cottage by the lake. In these places we have the nature around us, we warm up the sauna every day (something which does not exist anywhere else than in Finland), we jump to the lake and barbeque when the evening comes but the sun never sets. We have unique rights to go fishing, berry picking and mushroom picking to the forests. Typically the summer houses are such that there is always something to renovate, some gardening to do, some potatoes to grow. So maybe we can show some very unigue way of summer living in Finland, teach how to cook finnish food, what kind of berries etc we can pick or grow even though we are very north, how to warm up sauna and how is the tradition going. We allways build or renovate something so maybe can teach some new skill in that era as well.We love to travel so we are very interested of foreign people and cultures so we hope we can learn something new from a culture we may not know so well, or even get a new friend. We are very social so we always have friends and family members visiting us, so we are very used to have people around us. Our summer house is only 5 km from the next city so we can go there together either by boat or car and see the small town living and summer events together.
