  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Since nobody is living in the house currently, it's the ideal playground for doing something with your hands while still having room for making mistakes!
  
  Nyland itself is a small town of around 1000 souls, embedded into a Unesco World Heritage site: Sweden's Höga Kusten (High Coast) area. The people there are really lovely and while you can get by with English, it's a great place to be actually forced to use Swedish. Great for practicing!

  Help

  I just acquired land and a house in Nyland, close to Kramfors, in central Sweden.
  
  The house is liveable but many parts of the interior could use a facelift: removing old wallpaper, painting walls, installing smart locks, receiving IKEA order and assembling furniture are all things I need help with.

  Accommodation

  You have to whole house for yourself: four bedrooms, two bathrooms, of which one has a shower.
  
  The house is currently mostly empty and finding/adding furniture is part of what I need help with.
  
  If something doesn't work for you (e.g. wrong bed/wrong room, missing a desk, etc), we'll work together on finding something nice and turn it into a reality!

  What else ...

  Nature is the main attraction in this area! There is a skiing area close by in the next biggest town of Kramfors, a neighbor down the street from the house is keeping horses, and getting acquainted with the people in Nyland can also be fun.
  
  If you want to stay for a longer time, I suggest bringing your own passion project with you: a book or course you are creating, or maybe the online business you are working on.
