Minna
I'm 53 years old and work in the public library near Lahti, Finland. Usually I travel alone and sometimes with my trusted friend or with my son and his girlfriend.
I love travelling and hope to explore the whole world! My dream is to travel at least couple times a year on my spring and autumn holidays and in July also. There is a cat and a dog in my home. Usually dog sitter can take care of Manu on my travels, but the cat (Zen) stays at home (friendly easygoing outdoor cat). So it would be great if you can feed him and let out and in when he wants during your stay.
I would love to take care of your pets too!
I am open for every destination! So please, send me a message wherever you live and let's have an adventure!
Please note: I don't have a cleaner and expect that my PLU family leaves my home the way they found it. I promise to do the same with your precious home!
