  Description

  Hello, I am looking for somebody with a knowledge in gardening.
  I have a small patch outside my apartment - 30 sq.m. - and would love to make something out of it. Nothing too complicated, but some proper grass and a few plants would be nice.
  
  I am willing to host you for free for 2 months and cover the material costs.
  I also have a few tools.
  The rest would be on you.
  
  My apartment is in a beautiful, quiet but well connected area in the south-west of Berlin. I live here with my daughter, who stays half of the month with her dad, and a friend, who is staying here temporarily.
  I work and study, so my schedule is full and home is a place where I rest, most of the time.
  
  You would have your own room, facing the garden. It is small but has tall ceiling, an elevated bed, desk, chair and some shelves. I would provide linens and towels.
  
  If it sounds attractive to you, please write a little bit about yourself and let‘s see if it can work.
  
  I must note that last year i tried to fix the garden myself. It cost me a lot of energy and a back pain. I had some help, but the person was quick and rather careless. The result was not satisfying, so this time I would like it to be done properly. Therefor please write me only if you really know your stuff, have physical strength and a driver’s license. Some basic german skills would be helpful but isn‘t a must.

  You would live in a compact (aprox. 3-4 sq.m.) room with a loft bed. The room has a table, a chair, some shelves and a big window overlooking the back garden. It is very quiet and cosy. I will naturally provide you with bed linen and whatever else you need to feel comfortable.
