  Ajuda

  Windows need to be painted, i want to finish a bathroom and toilet, some woodwork around our attic door to make it safe.
  We got a small cabin in our field that we gutted last summer and putted a new roof on, it still needs some work on the framewall, two Windows need repair and then finish the inside walls with wood ( you don't have to be a skilled woodworker! If you can handle powertools; electric saw, screwdriver, drills,... or a nail and hammer. You will be just fine.
  
  There is always grass to be cut and trimmed, or wood cut and chopped.
  Fencing put up
  Depending on what Time of year, i been wanting to put more eatable plants around the house, they have to be seeded or planted in a spot that they Will like.
  If anybody wants to build a chicken tractor, please do come :D

  Acomodação

  I can provide a private room and food for meals or you can eat with us. We don't really have a strick routine here.
  If you like we have a big tent and some camping gear, and you can find a spot to camp out on our property, or glamp out, then we put a real bed in there (please Mark that from mid august to the end of September we always have a full house, (pear harvest time), so that time i Will only have the tent available to sleep, you can still use our house for sitting eating washing,...) any other time you can choose out of two bedrooms, at the moment i am building an extra bathroom and toilet, when that is finished you could use them for yourself.

  If you like to make campfires you are very welcome
  In between 15 - 40 minuts you have a few cities around. Tienen Diest Leuven and Hasselt We just have 2 times a day a bus, but we could arrange some transport. I regularly go to Tienen where there is a train station and from there you can go anywhere.
