Description
Hi.
We are the Lauhen family, who are based 100 km North of the polar circle, in the North Eastern part of Swedish Lapland.
The family consists of Lars and Eva-Lena together with our two kids Björk and Vidar. Plus our two dogs, one cat, a rabbit, two horses, and soon-to-be three goats.
Lars and Eva-Lena have both worked with tourism and are both educated guides.
We try to be as self-sustained as possible, but still have lots to do, before getting there. We want to increase our gardening, and we always got several DIY projects going on, building either a new cabin, tractor garage, or sauna. The possibilities are endless.
We got our own forest and cabin by the river.
We are looking for a person or a couple of friends or a couple, to help us out with some of our many projects.
The airports closest are Pajala, Kiruna, Rovaniemi, and Luleå AirPort.
Pick-up from AirPort can be sorted.
Please let us know if you’re interested.
Until then, take care.
All the best from the Lauhen family.Types of help and learning opportunities

We live in what's called the Tornevally, an area of Sweden where four different cultures meet. Sami, Tornedalians, Swedes, and Finish. We have our own local language called Meänkieli. And we live just 20 km. From the border to Finnish Lapland and 70 km. From the Ylläs fells.
