  Hello from Kaja and Andreas!
  
  Newest update :
  
  Thank you again wonderful workawayers for staying with us this summer ! Much love and peace to; Abigail, Paul, Kamil and Hana! :D We are not having anymore workawayers for 2024. But for next year spring/summer we are looking for experienced handlers of the animals and farm as we will venture on a journey with our new born :D
  
  We're a young couple who met in the stunning landscapes of Lofoten and decided to start a new life in the countryside together. Now, we're living on a beautiful farm in Finnskogen, having made the move less than a year ago. Our shared love for sustainable living brought us here, and we're excited to welcome like-minded folks into our space.
  
  About Us:
  
  Kaja: I'm from Alta, and I've always had a deep connection with nature. Sustainability is important to me, and I'm eager to share what I've learned as we work towards self-sufficiency on our farm.
  
  Andreas: Originally from Skoger, I've always enjoyed the peacefulness of rural living. Our move to Finnskogen reflects our commitment to living more sustainably, and I'm looking forward to building a community here.
  
  Our Project:
  
  Our farm isn't just where we live – it's a place where we're pursuing our dreams of self-sufficiency and creating a welcoming environment for others. We're planning to grow our own food and offer opportunities for others to get involved, too. Our goal is to build a space where sustainability and community go hand in hand.
  
  Our Approach:
  
  We believe in letting things unfold naturally and avoiding stress whenever possible. This philosophy extends to our guests as well. Whether you're here to help out on the farm, learn new skills, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet, we want you to feel relaxed and at home.
  
  Join Us:
  
  If you're interested in a laid-back, sustainable lifestyle in the heart of Finnskogen, we'd love to have you join our community. Whether you're experienced with farming or just curious about country living, there's a place for you here. Let's grow, learn, and create together.
  
  We can't wait to share stories, experiences, and the beauty of Finnskogen with you!
  
  Warm regards,
  Kaja and Andreas
