Description
Hello, I'm Ann,
I live at the countryside in Bever, Belgium. This is a little village about 45 minutes drive from Brussels or Gent. It is a green, hilly area with a lot of open space. it is a very quiet area where there is still silence.
I live together with my dog Snoetje, my cat Winnie and two chickens, Irma and Sneeuwitje 😉 I’m a big animal lover!
Three years ago I adopted Snoetje, a beagle who had been locked up for 2 years at a puppy farm in a barn without daylight. Then she stayed with a foster family for 5 months and now she is with me. From a very scary dog she has blossomed into a happy cuddly bear.
I adopted Winnie, the cat, four years ago, he is either sleeping or scaring the mice;-) but he is also a real cuddler!
I have just retired. I was a painter and I mainly painted, what did you think, animals 😉 but also contemporary still lifes and abstract atmospheric experiences.
I also like gardening, I have a garden with (wild) herbs, fruit, vegetables, flowers…
In my garden I always find something to prepare a nice meal because I like cooking, especially because I also like to eat 😉,
I mainly cook vegetarian, but occasionally eat organic meat or fish.
And I enjoy walking, chatting with friends, reading, ….
Now that I am retired I want to travel more, with my dog, and therefore it would be so nice to take a workaway with me to look after my dog while I visit a museum, to cook sometimes and of course to enjoy the company too!!!
Looking forward to hear from you! -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
you can learn a lot about herbs and plants here. Also about dogs of course. About vegetarian cooking. And about art.
I usually take workaways to visit one or more of our typical cities or regions.
I am curious to learn about other customs and to improve my languages -
Aide
Traveling with me and looking after my dog while I want to visit a museum or exhibition and cooking meals.
And of course enjoying each other's compagny
At home:
as everywhere there's the usual maintenance of the home,
keeping the animals company when I go out for a day,
it's also nice when you like cooking, so that once and a while I don't have to worry about that and so I can discover new recepes,
there's always something to do in the garden,
I can also use help when I'm doing DIY projects such as making cabinets, an outdoor lounge sofa, painting ... -

Hébergement
There is a spacious guestroom.
Only one person can be hosted.
We use the bathroom and kitchen together.
Food will be provided by me. You can cook yourself, but I'd love to cook for you.
And of course it would be great if you also cook once and a while, I will provide the ingredients you need, a new wind in the kitchen is always nice!
I eat mostly vegetarian.
No smoking here! -
