  Description

  18 years ago I moved from Germany to Sweden, working as a doctor. My family has gone their own ways, and now I try to realize a dream: create a place were I and other people can meet nature, eachother and, of course me. I bought a minor cottage out in the forests inbetween Herrljunga, Ulricehamn and Borås, started with reconstruction - and suddently needed medical help myself....
  
  So: if You are interested to create a meeting place out in nature, a place for retreat, a place for meditation, a place to find yourself! Wellcome!
  
  Bed and food is free , but I even can imagine to pay a minor salary.
  
  Work to be done: wooden floors, wood works in general, painting, installation but even creating a garden...
  English, german and swedish works fine!

  Help

  I am not and proffesional building expert and I dont expect this from You either. But some expierience from bulidningprojects is a clear advantage. All building are traditional swedish woodconstructions, >100 years old and so most of the work is woodwork or connected to it.
  
  The garden I want to start is thought as a "permaculture gardening".
