Description
We are a family living on an old but beautiful farm since 2022. We know that we lack experience but we are learning and step by step trying to get things done. There are many light tasks and problems to be solved. We want to be more self sufficient and here we have the possibility to achieve that goal.
It is a beautiful and calm place where we raise our sheep and rabbits for self sufficiency, and an amazing forest were we pick a variety of berries and mushrooms. The view of the river is lovely, and as it's just a few steps away, easy to go fishing or take a swim.

UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Possible to see how it works to live on the countryside in Northern Sweden, the challenge and the blessing.
Living in the well-known world heritage area visited by lots of nature loving tourists. The most popular places to visit in the High Coast of Sweden are Skule Mountain, Skuleskogen National Park, and the islands Ulvön and Trysunda.
The High Coast of Sweden is considered to be excellent for hiking and has been cited as one of the best hiking regions in Sweden.
There's of course other places that deserve a visit; Salusand - a lovely beach which sometimes has big waves loved by surfers, Paradiset - an indoor water park and spa, Skagsudde lighthouse, Gene fornby - a reconstructed Iron age settlement and many more.

We are a family who bought a homestead and It's a non-commercial farm, so what we produce is mainly for our own consumption.

It is good if you sometimes are able to help with tasks on your own when we are away at work and school.

Always had an interest in language and culture. Had friends from different countries and backgrounds who taught me some of their language and traditions.
Accommodation
Can offer a small room in our house (all year round) and a caravan (only during summer). You will basically live with us and share bathroom and kitchen. Therefore very important that we get along well. You can cook and eat with us if you wish. We apologize, but we cannot afford to provide special dietary requirements.

No smoking indoors!
