Description
Hi!
We are a German family of two adults and two children (13 and 9 years old). We live in Värmland (Sweden) for more than 10 years now and run a campsite here with 12 cabins and space for over 80 caravans/motorhomes and tents. We would like to give YOU (ONLY German or Swedish speaking!) the opportunity to discover the beautiful nature of Värmland and to get in touch with guests from all over the world. Minimum stay 4-6 weeks! Gladly longer if we harmonize well ;-) For you there is free accommodation (1-room apartment with your own balcony on approx. 20m2 living space) and food money or sometimes shared meals. We are looking for reliable, helping hands. Honesty, independence and an uncomplicated approach are very important to us. First and foremost, we need help with the follow-up/preparation (cleaning, changing bed linen and towels, etc.) of the holiday homes, with cleaning the huts when guests change and with cleaning the service buildings. In addition, you can take care of our goats, sheep and chickens and of course cuddle them. Help in the garden is also important. Some days there is more to do, other days less. In your free time you can explore the beautiful nature of central Sweden and, depending on the season, experience all kinds of outdoor activities. Kayaking on the river, cycling, swimming in the Klarälven or at bathing lakes, fishing, hiking... It is important for us that you love nature, see where you can help and organize yourself well.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Hallo!
Wir sind eine deutsche Familie mit zwei Erwachsenen und zwei Kindern (13 und 9 Jahre alt). Wir leben in Värmland (Schweden) seit nun etwas über 10 Jahren und betreiben hier einen Campingplatz mit 12 Hütten und Platz für über 80 Wohnwagen / Wohnmobile und Zelte. Wir würden DIR (nur deutsch oder schwedisch sprechend!) gerne die Möglichkeit geben die wunderschöne Natur Värmlands zu entdecken und mit Gästen aus aller Welt in Kontakt zu kommen.
Mindestaufenthalt 4-6 Wochen! Gerne auch länger wenn wir gut harmonieren ;-)
Für dich / euch (Paar oder Geschwister) steht eine kostenlose Unterkunft (1-Zimmerwohnung mit eigenem Balkon auf ca. 20m2 Wfl) und Essensgeld bzw. teilweise gemeinsames Essen zur Verfügung. Wir suchen zuverlässige, helfende Hände. Für uns sind Ehrlichkeit, Selbständigkeit und ein unkomplizierter Umgang sehr wichtig. In erster Linie brauchen wir Hilfe beim Nach-/Vorbereiten (putzen, Bettzeug und Handtücher wechseln usw.) der Ferienhäuser, bei der Reinigung der Hütten bei Gästewechsel und beim Reinigen der Servicehäuser. Darüber hinaus dürft ihr unsere Ziegen, Schafe und Hühner versorgen und natürlich auch kuscheln. Hilfe im Garten ist ebenfalls wichtig.
An manchen Tagen gibt es mehr zu tun, an anderen dafür wieder weniger.
In der Freizeit kannst du die traumhafte Natur Mittelschwedens erkunden und je nach Saison allerlei Outdooraktivitäten (er-)leben. Kajak fahren auf dem Fluss, Fahrradtour, schwimmen im Klarälven oder an Badeseen, Angeln, Wandern… Wichtig für uns ist, dass du die Natur liebst, siehst, wo du helfen kannst und dich selbst gut organisierst.
Wir freuen uns von dir zu hören!

It was a pleasure for us to host you during the midsommar at our camping and to have you as a part of our family! It was a great help for us preparing the midsommarparty and to do all the works like washing the dishes and giving a helping hand the whole time.
The children liked to play with you! We wish you… read more
