  Descrição

  My name is Ramira and together with my two sons (7 and 10) I live in Leersum, Utrechtse Heuvelrug in the Netherlands. Leersum is a small town with a few shops en restaurants. We live serounded by a very nice group of neighbors.
  We are surrounded by beautiful nature: forests, heath, farmlands and rivers. We love spending time outdoors. Walking, running, cycling and swimming or just going out and having a picknick. I also like reading, singing, dancing, yoga and CrossFit. In my job I help people with non-congenital brain damage make the most of their lives. My sons attent a Waldorf (Vrije school) nearby where I like to help out when needed.
  We have two cats and sometimes have a dog staying with us.
  Together with my friend I am renovating my house. He is a Carpenter/Handyman/doer of magic. I visualize al the wonderful things I want to do with the house and he figures out how we can make it work and then does the more complicated parts of the job.

  Ajuda

  Right now I mostly need help with housekeeping and cooking. And you will be working mostly on your own.
  
  Also, but at a low pace;:
  I would like some help with the renovation of our home. As explained I have help from my friend, but an extra set of hands is always welcome. I have so many projects in my head but just not enough time to do them. Renovating the basement and attic. Building a jungle/castle-room for the boys, etc etc.....
  Work consists of: carpeting, painting, putting up wall paper and preparation for the more professional jobs etc.
  
  If renovating is not your thing there are always other chores to do in, or around, the house:
  Organizing, cleaning, gardening, chopping wood etc.
  
  Do you like to cook? I love to learn new recipes and to enjoy someone else's cooking.
  
  Some days we work on a project together and sometimes we will work on separate projects.
  So it's a plus if you are willing to work indecently when I'm not available.
  
  At the moment we can host a single traveler, normally we can also have or two traveling together).

  Algo mais...

  When not helping around the house, you can go out in Nature, explore the small rural villages around us or take a bus (and train) to one of the bigger city's of the Netherlands. Since we live in the middel of the country you can go via Utrecht to any major city's. There is a direct bus to Utrecht with a stop just 5 min walk from our house.
  If we go places you can ride with us.
  
  There is NO SMOKING in or around the house.
  
  Since I live with my two boys it is important you enjoy spending time around kids. They are polite but will be interested and can get a little rowdy sometimes.
  
  Some days I do not check my email, so if it takes a little longer for me to react, please bare with me
