Description
Hello!
We are a young family of five; the parents Kristoffer (born -87) and Caroline (born -91) and our three kids Lea (born July -17), Lex (born May -19) and Lova (born June -21). In 2016 we decided to move from our 43 sqm apartment in Stockholm, out to a farm one hour away, with 45 hectares of land just outside of Enköping.
Here we have spent almost ten years trying to live a self sufficient life by growing a lot of vegetables, raise chickens, pigs and cats. At the same time renovating and taken care of our 15 different buildings on the farm, and parenting our three beautiful kids.
As one can imagine, we hit the famous wall a few year ago and are now keeping a somewhat slower approach to everything. Especially after realizing some of our kids need special attention.
Right now the garden is on pause, and we don't currently have any animals. Instead our focus the last years have been around spirituality and self growth. In ourselves and in our relationship. Everything from soul realignment to reiki, meditation and yoga.
We wish for you to be a part of our family. Helping especially with the kids and household in general, but if you are interested then there is often some renovation going on that you can help with or garden work.Types of help and learning opportunities

We love different cultures and languages, and have been to somewhere around 50 different countries ourselves. We love to exchange and share cooking experiences and teach you any swedish that you can manage. Our kids are a great way to try your Swedish as they don't speak English yet.

Help
We need help taking care of our three lovely kids, mostly just playing with them and giving them attention. They love volunteers and usually you haven't gotten your jacket off before the kids have dragged you to the playroom to show you their toys. Lea has adhd and needs extra attention, and an extra gentle touch, so skills with kids with extra needs are a plus but not a requirement. We practice gentle parenting.
We also might need help with everything else needed on a farm, especially cooking and cleaning.Languages

English: Fluent
Swedish: FluentThis host offers a language exchange
We love to speak swedish with you. Our kids don't speak English so they will try to teach you swedish where they can. It's a big bonus if you already have some understanding of Swedish, otherwise a good English level is required.Accommodation
You will live in the guesthouse 30 meters from our house. We just finished renovations on it, so it's very nice. There is a kitchen, bathroom and multiple bedrooms with radiators and fireplaces.
What else ...
We live quite isolated. There is no buses or other transportations close to our farm, so we'd like it if you enjoy being out in nature and don't crave the city life, because we don't have it here.
