  Beschreibung

  I am a writer creating literature about human behaviour. I live on a farm in the middle of the Swedish forest and I create buildings and projects using recycled materials. I also travel the world filming environmental issues and human behaviour around how we live.
  My main passion in life is trying to create and develop the impossible regardless of what it may be in life.
  To reduce the human impact on the earth's environment is extremely important in everything I do.
  
  It is amazing how much in the world is being thrown away, and gathering someone else's waste creates the most beautiful buildings and projects, both on the home farm and off the farm.
  
  By having Workaway experience these projects we can help change the world through the sharing of experiences, knowledge and skills by learning what a Workaway can achieve by spending some time in the deep forests of Sweden.
  
  All more Everything we are doing on a projects of Workaway do is non profit, And is for educational purposes and ideas exchanging between workaways and myself.
  
  Our home is in the heart of the forests, where the wolves, the bears, the moose and the lynx live, and the hillbillies are all around. We get up early in the morning, go to bed late at night, and grasp the beauty of our surroundings. The lakes, the rivers and the waterfalls, and I have to say that an experience with us will be memorable. Not only because of the cultural exchange but also the welcoming and friendly approach that we give to our Workaways on a day-to-day basis.
  If you want to have a look at the area feel free to go onto YouTube, type in VisitHagfors and go to the channel with the 'H' icon. There you will see nearly 300 videos of the area of Hagfors, Sweden, and you will find it most enchanting in every possible way to make your cultural exchange a memorable one. Where in years to come you will bring your children and grandchildren back to an area that you will never forget.
  
  I, and my family, have been working with people visiting us for the last 15 years. Giving them as much educational time as we possibly can. As a cultural exchange, we consider it to be about learning and gaining new skills as well as knowledge. On top of that being able to share these experiences so that all parties benefit to the maximum.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  From all of the things that we do as a family, a traveller could experience so many different things in life. By living in nature, in a forest and lake environment, and with all the different languages spoken we have learnt throughout the years by having people visit from all ages, that the experience they gain as well as the education and cultural exchange helps their knowledge for a better life no matter where they chose to go in the world in the future.
