We live in the countryside, near the forest and some tourist attractions such as bird sanctuary and hiking trails. One of our hobbies is gardening, we also have some chickens.
We are running 2 businesses and have a full time work. Our son goes to school everyday.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are couple of multi-cultural race. Filipino and German. We've been living in Sweden for over 20 years so we consider ourselves Sweds. We love Sweden and culture is always one of the topics whenever we have friends over. If you are interested to know how things works in Sweden, we think we can share a thought or two. We are living in one of the best spots to visit in Sweden, we live in the area between the 2 biggest lakes. If you are interested on exploring old ruins and a hike in the forest, our place would be the perfect place to visit.
Help

We have a garden to take care of, some chickens and a dog to look after. We are looking for friendly people (single or a pair) who is willing to help us out with some chores at home. Experience on carpentry and gardening is a plus but not a must. We have a guest room fits 2 person and a separate bathroom.
