  Description

  Hi workawayers! We're a family of four, Lars (36), Willemijn (36), Isa (4) and Sofie (0). We are originally from Holland, living in Sunne, Sweden since 3 years. We are renovating an old swedish house at the countryside from top till toe while living in a another house and have small kids which makes our life rich but busy. Help is welcome😃
  
  We love to share our beautiful place (s) with those who love nature and like to experience daily life at the (not too remote) country side of Sweden.
  
  There is of course a lot more to tell, don't hesitate to ask!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The lifestyle at the swedish countryside is a lot different from our former lifes in the Netherlands. We learned a lot since we moved to Sweden and are eager to share our experiences.
  
  Also the swedish nature has a lot to offer: picking berries and mushrooms, watching birds, outdoor life, hiking, cycling, skiing etc.
  
  We're curious to get to know more about your background, culture, language and more!

  Accommodation

  We have a little guesthouse to offer, 1 room with bunk bed (120 cm bed below), bathroom, fridge and opportunity to cook an easy meal or to make coffee/tea. It's suitable for 1 -2 persons, maybe 3 if you don't mind sharing a 120 cm bed or lie on a air mattress on the ground.
  
  We provide 3 meals a day. Would be great to share dinners from time to time!

  What else ...

  We live about 15 car minutes from Sunne, a small town with all the shops you need in daily life. The small village we live in does also have a small shop.
  
  To get to Sunne you'll need a car, but we can provide you a (almost daily) lift.
  
  Karlstad, the bigger city is about 45 car minutes away.
  
  The closest (bigger) airport is Oslo, which is 2,5 h drive away.
