Description
Hello and welcome 😊
This is an invitation to relax and enjoy life living close to beautiful nature and enjoy sharing food and cooking. If you have a longing to retreat, reconnect with yourself and embrace a life in the present moment this could be a place for you.
This place has a history of being a silent retreat center but is now geared more towards the love for food and cooking. The place still very much embraces an atmosphere of stillness, being present and enjoying nature.
What does a day look like?
Inviting the natural flow of life, spending time in nature, time and space for reconnecting with yourself, cooking plant based meals, doing what inspires you in your own time and pace, visiting and exploring the beautiful nature of Sweden and inviting being in the present.
This place does not adhere to any particular tradition itself — only to follow your own heart and intuitive guidance.

Dan is a brilliant cook who crowned me a 'food Princess' in beautiful surroundings.
Thanks for everything Dan.
Dan mastered the art of living in the present and enjoying every moment, in fact I learned a lot from him, he unlocked the door that leads to answers that I have been looking for, for a while.
He gave unconditionally and he always makes sure you do what you feel.
Thank you for the discussions, the… read more
