Hi, I live in Eaux-Vives and I was wondering if anyone has any English/Spanish/or Russian-speaking cleaning lady recommendations? My family is interested in finding a cleaning lady for cleaning/laundry once a week or once every 2 weeks. If possible, babysitting for a 21-month old as well. Does anyone have a cleaning lady that is available or interested. What are the common charges per hour as well in Geneva? (for a 2-bedroom apartment)

Hi, Does anybody know if one needs building permission to build a treehouse in your garden. As far as I can tell if its smaller than 5m2 and less than 2m high and movable( As in a garden shed) it is okay to build without prior consent. This of course will be a treehouse for my kids for the next few years but will be taken down once they are too old to use it, but would still like to know for sure if its legal or not.thanks in advance  

Hello, You may found what you need in a new sharing economy service Tryngo!   Today we move from place to place frequently. But we can't buy home supplies each time. We don't want to buy a drill knowing moving in the next month.   Tryngo is a worldwide online platform to share objects, services, space and activities, launched in Geneva, Switzerland. If we need a drill just occasionally, it's mush smart to ask your neighbor than buy and leave it unused. As like, we can save money and contribute to the sustainable economy.   Cheers  Check and try it at www.tryngo.ch
