Descripción
I am running a small organic farm on the Island of Föglö, belonging to the Aland Islands between Sweden and Finland. I have 4 horses, a very friendly dog, chicken and rabbits. I have some fields for the horses, I grow hay and I have a garden for vegetables, fruit trees and berries. To the family belongs me, Karin, who is a former riding-teacher, nowadays just staying at home because of my reuma, my daughter Viola living on a farm nearby with her ponies and dogs, and 3 grown-up sons, sometimes visiting me.
I play folksmusic on the violin.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

The surroundings are beautiful and quiet, the people living here love the nature, fishing and hunting. We have ferries connecting to east and west. We speak Swedish.

I had an accident reacently and need urgent help on the farm. If you know about farmlife, are used to animals and are able to do some common things independently you are welcome! But I need the help now, not later :)
At the moment the farm is awakening after a long winter. The horses need to be brushed to get rid of theit wintercoat and some fences around the summerfields need to be repaired. There is some gardenjob and some painting of buildings.
You will have a lot of free time you can spend in the nature around the farm, there is a lot to see and enjoy at this time of year. I also have a beautiful wooden boat, we can do some fishing. And I have a spare bike, it is only 4 km to the central village Degerby from where the ferry (free) goes to the mainland.
Only one person. No dogs or other pets (because of my old dog Della). Independent -I can only take care of myself at the moment.Idiomas hablados

You can google on Föglö, our Island. I can pick you up in Mariehamn, the only city on Åland, there are ferries connecting to Stockholm, Turku and Helsinki. It is also possible to come with a small, free ferry directly to Överö, Föglö, from Korpo, Finland.

It was an amazing experience, Föglö is incredibly beautiful, the horses are charming and last but not least there's of course Karin. She's very open minded and will welcome you with open arms on her beautiful farm.
I would definitely stay with her again and I would recommend staying there to anyone who… read more
