  Description

  Hello! We live in big old House in central of small village, Savitaipale. Our family is made of mom, dad, daughter(15), son(17) and two dogs + relatives and friends who come and go all the time. We are messy and unorganized but warm and caring family.
  
  We are renovating the House all the time but there is so much to do and so little time. Our yard is endless work, we need most help with work outside at the moment. If you have skills with building with wood, that would be awesome, there are gates and fences to build and we never seem to have time for that. Our dogs also need a lot of attention, so if you take them outside with you to work with yard and take them for walks, it would be huge help for us!
  
  Miika (dad) is working day and night shifts and Paula (mom) is working 12 hour shifts and also finishing studies for bachelor of social services. So we don´t allways have time to cook or clean, so all help with cooking and cleaning is most wellcome.
  
  On the other end of house we have a nice quiet room with own entrance so if you would like to come and live with us, you have your on privacy when ever you need a rest from us :) In House we also have ceramic studio and small shop. We don´t have much time to do ceramics at the moment but hopefully that will change soon.
  
  We have summergottage half hour drive from our House and there is lot of work to do there also....but if you want to spend some quiet time in middle of forest, it's a perfect place to rest also. Our daughter is studying english at school and hearing english everyday would be priceless help with her education! Our son is studying elsewhere but visits us during weekends.
  
  So it's not all work, it's also fun and games because we love boardgames. So if you are up for that, this is place for you :) During summer we like to visit beach near us and there is also possibility to camp there, if you want to spend some of summernights sitting by the campfire. During autum, we spend as much time as possible in forest, picking blueberrys and mushrooms. In wintertime Savitaipale is good place to skate and ski and we live next to swimminghall and library so it doesn't matter that village is small, there is allways something to do! There are also many other workaways In the area to spend time with. We have car so if you have drivers licence, you can run some errands further away.
  
  Because of our long days at work, there will be days that nobodys around, so if you require lot of company, you might not enjoy staying with us. But if you are ok with some independent working, then I can promise, you have your own space to work and spend time and of course when ever we are at home, we join the endless work that our house and yard provides.
