Description
Spring is arriving and it will be much to do with houses, garden ad animals.
You will be living on a farm where we have horses, sheep, ducks and bees. In the park around the mansion there is an art exhibition, which is enlarged every year. 2018 there were approx 50 students from two art schools nearby who produce a exhibition. 2019 it was the school children in the nearby village. 2020 was an isolated corona-year, 2021-2023 we will make a big outdoor mosaic with marble. 2024 we will continue with new projects. The farm is 16 km outside Linköping, with good transportation (bus + train or bike).
This spring you will help me finish the Roman bath, work in the garden and indoors, a little work with the animals, paint and many other things that must be done on the farm.
Everyday life in my home
My workaways have their own room (with WiFi), in the main building. You eat breakfast and lunch on your own, but we eat dinner together during weekdays. All meals are included. We cook dinner every other day (or third, if you are two workaways). We agree on when the working day begins (some wants to start early, others late). You work five hours a day, which also includes time to cook dinner, when it's your turn. Usually you work for yourself (after instruction) but I try to be with you as much as I can. I try to vary the work as much as possible, so it want be boring.
I prefer if you are two, coming together, because some days I have to travel in my work.

The farm is situated 16 km outside Linköping. You can either bike to the middle of the city on excellent biking roads (approx 40 min), or take bus/bike and train to the city, approx 15 (bus/bike) + 7 minutes (train every 30 minutes). Linköping is a nice city with a university and lots of cultural activities.

One of my tasks was working in the garden, for example removing weed, cleaning windows or painting a fence with the typical red Swedish colour.
