  Description

  Hi people of the world! My name is Ida, 32 yo. I live together whit my cat in a little magicle place in Sweden. Things I love is culture, music, art, gardening, growing my own food. In the wintertime I iceskate on the lakes and oceans of Bohuslän. Im a social person and likes to meet other people to share experiances, have good conversations and laughter. I work as a teacher and the rest of the time I try to do music as much as possible. I live in a traditional house from ca 1870 in the middle of an oakforrest. Half of the house were built in traditional style in the 90s. Whit a 10 minute drive you find many lakes and the arcipilago of Bohuslän whit thousands of islands, I sometimes go kayaking and hiking in the ocean. The aria is also interesting whit its history whit rockcarvings.

  Hopefully you will enjoy a very harmonic place on the earth close to the nature. You can learn alot from a trip to the swedish westcoast and to be a workawayer at my place. You can for example learn more about the swedish language. If your interested in music I can teach you some traditional swedish tunes cause I have alot of experiences whit fluteplaying and traditional Scandinavian music. You can learn more about gardering and to grow and havres vegitables. If you want and have time we can go out whit kayak in the beautiful arcipilsgo that we reach whitn a 10 min drive there.

  What else ...

  In your freetime you can do alot of fun things. You can go into the forrest and pick mushrooms or blueberries. You can borrow my dubblekayak and take a tour in the ocean or in the lakes. You can visit the rockcarvingmuseeum or walk in the beauteful natureresort Tjurpannan for hours next to the ocean. The best is if you have a car cause I live 4 km from the small village and if you want to see the surrondings of the aria by yourself its good to have a car. Another thing that can be good to know is that because Im a social and open person sometimes my friends or my parents are coming and visiting me so Im not always alone whit my cat in the house.
