  Aloha Friends to be ☀️ Help me 🙏 with bringing a family home in Åland on an island retreat back to life and love!
  
  An ode to love, my father built this home in the 60’s taking each panel of wood and building material over in a rowing boat! It was and is his life’s best work! The small private island is brimming with nature, breathtaking scenery and wildlife!
  
  I am have joint Finnish and Swedish citizenship, my mother was from Åland and I inherited this special place when she passed. My partner is Irish ☘️💚☘️!
  
  For many reasons - namely illness, intense work load and an unfortunate collection of events I have not been able to devote as much time as I need to revitalize the home on the island.
  
  I need support tidying up the outdoors, clearing overground (reeds and overgrowth and small bushes/trees), organizing the shed and storage area, painting some windows and wood and organizing rowing boats! There are also some tasks in the main house and I also need to sort out a lot of stuff and take it to the dump to be recycled if I cannot use it. If you happen to be handy or into DIY that is preferred!
  
  I do not live full time on the island as work means that I come and go but the plan is to spend more time there. You will have the space for yourself and while you are with us we will visit and spend time with you also help out of course!
  
  We have not hosted Workaway's as of yet but my girlfriend hosted volunteers a few years ago when she lived in the Middle East. Between us we have lived and worked for many years in - Bali, Tokyo, London, Dubai, Doha, Hong Kong and Stockholm.
  
  We look forward to hearing from you - Sky, Sinèad & Yo 🐕

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  You will be immersed in nature, we will set you up, be there to help out and collaborate but we need to come and go for work! If you would like more time together then we can accommodate, eat together and give you an insight into the culture, nature and history; we will introduce you to extended family and the local community so you are all set and feel supported!

  Arbeit

  You will have the space to yourself you can stay for a few weeks or a month or longer! I will be present to guide and of course help out, I need to come and go because of work so it’s essentially your home and island for your time with me! You will have access to a motor boat to explore the archipelago and pop to Hugo’s the local store! I would prefer a couple or two or more friends who are active, love nature, the great outdoors are motivated and want to be part of creating something special 💚

  Unterkunft

  You will cook for yourself, when we are there we will cook together! The Local shop is a short trip away by boat! You will have a private room each if friends! The space has 3 double bedrooms and a loft mezzanine double bedroom so 4 in total! Kitchen, Living Room, Bathroom - Outdoors BBQ, Jetty, Tool Shed!
  
  We will provide ingredients or stipend to cook for yourself and cook and eat together with you when we are there but that will be periodically perhaps once a week or every fortnight depending upon what works for you.
  
  We practice 'leave no trace principles' on the island (lnt.org/why/7-principles/) all food waste goes into a compostable unit, we recycle all other waste taking it from the island to the recycling center before we leave.
