About Tapani R.

54 years old | Maintenance worker | Alone

I am 53 years old man from Finland and I started at June 2024 some years "long holiday" to spend some free time by travelling or what ever comes to my mind. I have traveled also using Couchsurfing.com and Hospitalityclub.org, so I have visited many unknowns home and I got good preferenses about that. Also I have hosted many peoples via Airbnb in 3 places in Inari, Lapland and visited many places via Airbnb around Europe.

I was born in milk farm and my first job was work in many milk farms 6 years around my home town. My last profession was maintenance worker, so I can take care of buildings and I see if something is not like they should be. I've had chickens and I'm used to cats in my childhood home.

I have almost allways lived in my private house where have own small garden; potatoes and carrots mainly, and some flowers. But honestly: I am no professonal gardener. But I won´t kill your garden...

Tapani a su gérer les animaux et la maison (pas toujours simple avec la tempête Jérémie :) ) avec efficacité. Il est courtois et discret malgré la barrière de la langue pour moi. Cette première expérience pour moi a été bien coordonné ! J'aurais peut être aimé plus de photo des animaux mais c'est mon côté soucieuse. Après tout "pas de nouvelle / bonne nouvelle" ! Il a laissé la chambre très propre. C'est plus que je l'espérais, ça m'a facilité la tâche après. J'espère qu'il a passé un bon moment à la maison.

Tapani est parfait. Il est agréable, discret et a la délicatesse et la gentillesse de vous préparer un repas typiquement finlandais lorsque vous rentrez le soir de votre périple (après être venu vous chercher à l'aéroport). Que demander de plus ? L'impensable, à savoir : Tapani semble avoir un réel don pour communiquer avec les chats même les plus sauvages. Lui seul a su s'approcher de Chabada, il a pu la caresser, ce qu'aucun des membres de ma famille ou amis proches n'a réussi à faire jusque-là. Chabada a même dormi avec lui. Soit elle comprend le finnois, soit il parle chat...

We have really enjoyed having Tapani looking at our cat and the house. He was easy to contact and always gave prompt feedback. The cat loved him. He took care oft the robotic lawnmower furthermore he trimmed voluntarily parts, where the mower couldn't reach. When we returned the apartment was very clean and in good condition. We highly recommend him and would put him in charge of the cat, the house and the lawn again any time.

Malgré les difficultés linguistiques et des circonstances inconfortables (sa voiture était en panne et celle que nous aurions pu lui prêter aussi !), Tapani a été très soucieux de comprendre et de se conformer à nos attentes. Nous et nos chattes garderons un bon souvenir de lui.
