  Description

  We are two men living on the countryside just outside Oslo, the capital of Norway. Here we live together with our two dogs (Saarloos Wolfhond) and some pigeons.
  
  We are first of all looking for some practical help for some indoor and outdoor tasks. Our main focus at the moment are connected to painting, gardening and ordinary housework. Therefor we are looking persons that:
  
  - Have practical skills/experience (constructions, painting, gardening)
  - Have physical strength to work with tasks as mentioned above
  - Are able to solve problems and work independently
  - Know how to carry out ordinary housework tasks
  
  For the moment there are plenty of tasks to be solved both in- and outdoors. We are renovating some parts of the house and we are about to construct a new garden.
  
  Our home has a great location rather close to city life, at the same time we are at the countryside with a spectacular wildlife and view over the delta with an amazing number of bird and fish species. The house is located about 25 minutes from Oslo and 40 minutes from Oslo airport, Gardermoen.
  
  I addition we have just bought a house at the countryside in northern part of Denmark, where we also could need some helping hands.
