    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    we are small family with 4 people and 2 dogs, 2 cats and almost 100 cows.
    We must feed cows and milk them. We need support with everything that has to do with farming.
    Flykälen is a small village with less than 20 inhabitants. There is a small festival every year. It's called traktorpulling with dance and pub in the evening.
    otherwise we are close to the mountains. There are hiking opportunities, fishing or just enjoy the nature. If you would like to have your peace and relax your soul and do not mind the country air, it is just right here.

    We would be pleased if you would assist us with the daily tasks on the farm. To do the tasks independently would be advantageous
    We would like to receive your support. there are works like continue to repair. preparing stall for milking. Who likes may milking a cow himself. Repairs on the stall. a horse stable and a dog house must be built. and then I would need help with the renovation of the cottage.
    However we do expect our workawayers to be responsible,honest and reliable. If you have special skills thats great but most important is to be interested and not afraid of trying and learning new things. Farmwork can be both boring and dirty so if you can`t deal with hard work and dirty hands this is not place for you. We also prefer our workawayers to be at least 25 or older.
