  Description

  Hello!
  
  We need help, living in our house and taking care of our cats, flowers and plants, when the whole family is having a holiday in Sweden.
  It's possible to arrive earlier and staying longer, helping with simple gardening and stay together with us in our daily life.
  
  During the summer we will need help with other stuff as well:
  
  Do you want to stay in our cabin and help us ? Our cabin is in the Norwegian forest, by a nice little lake. It is possible to swim and fish, go for walks and relax. If you have a drivers license you can borrow a car and be flexible about getting to civilization if you need to. You can also borrow a bicycle. The cabin has no electricity or running water, it is primitive and cosy. There is solar power and internet. You must be able to fire up the fireplace and cook on a gas stove.
  
  In week 30 we need someone to live in our house, taking care of our cats and the garden. Picking berries, watering plants and flowers, taking care of the house. It is possible to bring the cats to the cabin as well.
  
  We live in a small town called Gjøvik, the town is close to Mjøsa and we have all the Norwegian nature right outside the door. In Gjøvik you will find the university NTNU. If you like to go for a walk in the forest/mountain, it is a great opportunity to join the local DNT (Den norske turistforening) - many go on a walk together. Hiking trails start right outside our door, as well as cross-country trails.

  Hopefully you will live as a part of our family. Our four kids have left the house, so we will be glad to have company in the daily life. If you want to learn Norwegian we will speak to you in our language, otherwise we speak pretty good English. We have two cats (Siberian), they are lovely.

  Our cat Leo loves company in the house! And; If you like painting walls - we'd love to have you join us. I am trying to fresh up the house fixing some colours and make it look more modern, so you are welcome to join me! And if you like cooking food, you can make food from your country, and I will serve you real Norwegian food!
  
  We will need help in the garden as well.
