  We live in Lapland; a small village called Pello. Pello is a quiet village, here live ~3300 inhabitants. We live in a detached house by the river. We are a going and social family. We visit the village, friends and our family. And we have guests some times. In addition, there are hobbies.
  
  I'm social and i'm talking a lot. But no worries, i may be a little quiet at first when i don’t speak English very well. 😄 I like brisk and active people. I hope you are like that. I'm "funny" and loving mother and wife. We joke a lot. My hobby is gym, fire department and snowmobiling.
  
  Our older daughter are really sweet. She is also social and she have a good sense of humor. She has come to shes mother.🤭 She is in preschool. She likes crafts and art a lot. Different tests with e.g. water are also interesting. In winter we going downhill skiing together.
  
  My husband also hobby snowmobiling in the winter. We are relaxed and we like to go partying sometimes. I also like the rules. Our daughter have certain limits and she is mannerly. I like to keep the house clean.
  
  I'm a paramedic and always work 24 hours a day, after that i have two days off. My husband have own company and sometimes he working weeks away from home so we are a lot together with the girls.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We have a sauna! Indoors and also outdoors. Nature is beautiful all year round. In winter there is a lot of snow and if you are lucky you can see the northern lights. Summer nights are bright and autumn has a beautiful fall (I don't know if there is an English name for it. but the leaves and trees get a beautiful autumn color = Finnish name is 'ruska'). You can learn Finnish, get to know Finnish nature and see Finnish animals.

  Aide

  I hope you are self-starter and brisk. I can't tell you the exact work task yet. But, for example, ordinary housework belongs to everyone in our family; garbage export and general cleanliness, etc. Outdoor work; mowing and raking the grass in the summer, snow work in the winter. Possibly also driving girls to school and hobbies.
  
  We dont speak english very well. I'm ashamed when i write this i have to resort to a translator..😳 So it would be time to learn and dare to speak english and everyday language i will definitely learn more. Also our daughter is at a good age to learn a little bit other language.
  
  Because we have a desire to learn English, I hope you take this into account, for example, when you play with our daughter. Use English words, and you can also learn Finnish yourself.
  
  We are looking for:
  Fun, lively and social person. I hope you are outgoing and talkative and spontaneous/unprompted/initiative. (I don't know what the real english name is, but I mean you can start doing things yourself and I don't always have to command you 😄)
  
  You know how to do normal homework; fill and empty the dishwasher, do the dishes, take out the trash, clean the table, hoover (we also have a robothoover) etc.
  
  Don't bother contacting us if you are;
  Very shy and you like spend lot of your time alone. You can't do homework and you can't play with a child.
  
  I want you to play with our kids because you WANT to play, not because you HAVE to play.
  If you are not ready for one then you can skip our profile directly.
