Description
Welcome at our little house in the woods.
We are Christian (Swedish), Johanna (German), every second week Jai (6 years old) and 3 cats living in the forest.
There is always a lot to do outside and in the process of building a horse barn we need some helping hands.
As we both work full time, we are looking for helpers who can work independent and enjoy the quietness of nature around.
When we are not working we enjoy bonfires, hikes in the forest, picking berries and mushrooms, cooking and taking care of our horses (which do not live with us yet).
If you have experience with horses, there could be the possibility to take you along.
Our cats love cuddles, take over the couch and come along for walks. So you should like cats.
We buy and cook plant based food and you are welcome to join our dinners or prepare you own food. As we like to make sure to ear healthy we take out time to cook meals and bake bread. If this is something you enjoy you are also welcome in the kitchen.
Accomodation can be a room in the house. Or if you enjoy it outside, we can provide a tent as well.

Help
At the moment we fix up an old barn to get it ready for our horses to move in, so there is a lot of wood work, including putting up feces, clearing out the forest of cutting down trees.
We prefer someone with experience, who doesn't need to be supervised the whole time and enjoys being outside.
