Hi, We are 6 people living on this beautiful land. Plus our cat Isis. (And hopefully we will have chickens soon).
Hello, I'm Daniel. I live in one of the houses with my 14-year-old Isabell and 6-year-old Lumina. They are living with me 50% of the time. I work in the music industry and almost always have other projects planned, primarily focused on personal development, holistic health, and spiritualism/lightwork/shamanism. I work in my music studio, which is in another house here on the same land.
Hey there! I´m Jacqui, and I live in a house just next to Daniel. My 6-year-old Lumina lives with me 50% of the time. I also have two fostercare children living with me fulltime; Decibelle 5 years and Melodie 3 years. I run my own company working as a doula and also often have many different projects going on.
Both Daniel and Jacqui are usually busy but still very calm and easygoing.
The kids are in kindergarten and school during the day.
We have a big lush garden and a sauna for you to use. It is a short walk to the forest, and there are also stables with horses nearby.
A part of our house is built around the year 1780. It is "typically old Swedish", red with white details. It is very well taken care of/renovated and has a large kitchen, living room, two bathrooms, some storage areas, and a few bedrooms.
We absolutely love this place, and I hope you will have a good stay!

Järna is a cute town with a few shops, a cozy café, Library. Järna is a cultural Mecca for anthroposophic and Waldorf-interested people. There are also plenty of biodynamic and organic farms around.

Accommodation
We have different type of rooms to offer. We have 2 private caravans, 1 with electricity and 1 without. Daniel have 2 guestrooms in his house, with a king bed in each. There are also a guestroom in an other building that might be available.
What else ...
Food: We will buy ingredients, but one of the things I might want help with is making food. I love to cook, but I rarely have time for it.
Breakfast: Oatmeal porrige
Lunch: Usually leftovers or something simple
Dinner: Homecooked meal
We love food, we enjoy organic and nice ingredients. Isabell eats vegan, Lumina eats vegetarian.
Sometimes I will prefer to eat alone while I work or when winding down, and you are always free to do so! I don't have much spare time and will not be able to join your adventures in cultural exploring, though I encourage you to leave the land sometimes and do your thing, explore, meet people, do fun, and/or do other fun things!
We prefer you to be independent and proactive.
