  • Description

    Description

    We are a Swedish-British family living on a farm in the beautiful countryside in the South of Sweden. We are only a cycle ride away from a lake where we go wild swimming in the Summer. We are surrounded by wildlife such as deer, boar, fox, hares, pheasants and birds of prey. There is even lynx and wolf in the area - no one ever sees them though 😊

    We have a 5 year old son and a little beautiful baby girl who arrived in the beginning of September. This is why we need help with the upkeep our little paradise and running of our home.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We would love to point you to the golden spots in the South of Sweden including lakes, nature reserves, beaches and forests. Our Workawayers also enjoy visiting Lund, Malmö and Copenhagen during their stay.

    Our skills range from English, Swedish, Vedic Astrology, Shadow Work, natural wild birth, running a successful business, entrepreneurship, running women's and men's circles, attachment parenting, children’s education, music, nutrition, graphic design and some things I may have forgotten.

    At this point when we have a little baby we won’t be taking you around on excursions, but happy to give you a lift to the train station and tell you about places you could visit. If you have a driving license, you may be able to borrow a car if it's not being used.

    Right now clearing/sweeping/cleaning out our chicken barn is priority, as well as mowing, hedge trimming, weeding. Sometimes we also require help cooking, cleaning, tidying and general support around the house. Basically we would love some extra hands. Clearing the kitchen is always welcome as well as keeping the house at base level clean 😅
    Sometimes the task for the day may be sorting the pantry and another day it might be cleaning windows, clearing the barn, pruning a tree or seeing to the chicken coop.

    We are also organising our shed and outdoor spaces and would be grateful for help with this if you are more of an outdoorsy type. We have chickens and a cuddly sweet cat boy.

    What else ...

    13 mins drive to trains to ‘everywhere’. 60 min train to Copenhagen. Bike ride away to a big lake. Close to the beautiful medieval town of Lund and and the bustling Malmö which has more of a bohemian cultural vibe. Many places of natural beauty surround us. We are happy to drive you to the train station.
