Description
I'm Ingrid and I live along the Oslofjord in a house surrounded by around 50 single-family homes, about 40 minutes from Oslo. I'm always up for fun, I like listening to music and I'm interested in art, architecture, nature, wild herbs and growing vegetables for my own needs. I am very social and love having guests, but I also enjoy the peace and quiet at home or in the nearby forest and by the sea, which is a 10-minute walk away.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
I am originally from Austria, but have lived in Norway for more than 20 years. So you not only get to know Norwegian culture, but also Austrian culture. We can speak in German, Norwegian, Italian or English. You can choose.
Aide
I'm looking for a workawayer who likes to lend a hand and can help me spruce up the garden, fix things. I also want to build a small stone wall, clear out and tidy up the basement. You participate in daily chores like emptying the dishwasher and vacuum cleaning. You are welcome to cook.

Philippe was with me for 12 days in August and was my last workawayer for this year.

He loves working in the garden where he helped me a lot with trimming bushes, cutting down trees, planting tomatoes etc. Mariano really "tidyed up" my garden. It was a lot of hard work that he didn't give up until everything was done and I am very grateful to him for that.
