    Description

    I am Petter, a 36-year young farmer in the Västra Götaland area in the south of Sweden and am looking forward to welcome a lot of young and open people to my new project!

    After travelling the world for 10 years, I decided to settle back in my home country to enjoy the beauty of our nature and grow a sustainable farm. I recently moved into a spacious place and there needs to be a lot of tasks done constructing different areas in the house, painting, gardening and renovation.

    Among many more things, I love being in the nature, cooking delicious vegan meals, helping in a team and getting to know young people from around our amazing world. I am fluent in English, Swedish, Portuguese and Japanese and do understand Spanish, French and a little Chinese. I love to meet different people from different cultures.

    I am friendly and social and want to use this platform to give volunteers a chance to get to know the beauty of Sweden in a great environment and will help you to enjoy your stay as much as possible and gladly recommend or join your activities in the area!

    Looking forward to welcome you at my farm, soon!

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I want to create a friendly and loving environment among the volunteers including myself. The life in the countryside is super charming and calm and people are super friendly. As a world-traveller, I have a lot of experiences to share and stories to tell. I don't want you to be just volunteers but create close friendships and relationships on a cultural level. You will learn to grow together as a team and pass smaller and bigger challenges around the farm.
