Description
Stay in a yoga conference place outside the coastal town of Varberg Sweden with my cat Olle.
I am Mia and I have a small roof top apartment in one of the buldings where you would stay together with my cat Olle, a senior persian kind of grumpy and demanding but very cuddly and affectionate cat when you get to know him.
It is located in the country side a ten min drive to Varberg and the sea.
You are going to be surrounded by forest and farms with cheeps outside the window.
Varberg is known for surfing, spa, yoga and nudebaths.
A lot is happening during summer here with concerts, festvals and other activities.
If you like surfing, kite or SUP and want a cat on top of you while you´re sleeping this is the place for you.
Varberg have many different beaches by the sea and also a lot of lakes close to where you live.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Varberg is rich in cultural exchange. Here is the Fortress built in 1287, the museum of cultural history, the radiostation Grimeton wich is a world heritage and we have the famous Ribersborgs cold bath house among more interesting sites to visit.
A lot of Yoga, surfing and Spa´s and also hiking trails. In the summer next to the place you would stay is also a place called Strömma Farmlodge where there are concerts with famous Swedish artists almost every weekend during summertime.
There are also more of music and performance happening in the city.
Help
I am leaving the 29th of july and not coming back until the 5th of september so it would be good if you could come at least one day in advance.
The help needed is to take care of my cat Olle, feeding, cuddling, cleaning the litter box daily and let him in and out when he wants. (During summer he can climb in through the roof window, but not out.)
Also take care of my plants and keep the place clean and tidy.
It will also be required of you to help with watering in the garden and greenhouse, and also cutting the lawn (normally once a week), and to help with some garden work.
If you are using common areas it also means that you clean up after using these.
If the landlord is going away you would help her with her cats, ( just letting them in and out and give some dryfood), but at the same time have the whole place for yourself, (if there´s no other people staying over or have things booked).
The help requiered is approx about 2 hours/day with variations from day to day in length.

Accommodation
You would have a cosy but tiny roof top apartment . Shower and kitchen is in the space below.
You would have acces to the beautiful space below, (when its not any activities there) where you can do yoga, dance etc. You would also have access to the garden .
In this place it is also possible to get treatments such as redlight therapy, chrystal therapy, massage, acupressure and more. Here are also jacuzzi and a sauna.
This is a place with several different buildings and spaces and during summertime it can be quite busy because of guests coming and leaving who are staying in the studio that is rented out via booking.
What else ...
Only suited for one person and it is optional with a car because the access to public transport is a bit away. It is a 5 min drive to the nearest supermarket and to the nearest busstation, (walking it would take you about 40 min). Varberg and beach is 18 km away.
It also is preferable with a female sitter, sorry guys.
It is possible to leave for a couple of days if you talk to the land lord and she will take care of Olle if she is home. It is also possible that in case of her leaving help her with her cats.
She has two and they all go in and out as they want to in all spaces and living areas here.
