    Description

    Hello all curius, intresting and friendly people out there!

    Here´s a beautiful place in the countryside of Sweden.
    Around here there is forest and fields. Farms, lakes and small mountains - lots of nature.
    Were looking for people that wants to join us in our efforts and projects but also we want to offer an opportunity to share this simple but beautiful setting we live in.

    Main projects this year will be the remaining restaurations in the main house. For next summer plans are mostly focusing on gardening and some plantations and hopefully getting on with the roof and extension on the small house.

    Our vision with people that come to us is that it should be rewarding in both ways. We will try to offer both challenging tasks and to be as loving and helpful we can to make your stay rewarding.

    As for now its just me, Jörn, living here with my 13 year old daughter coming over weekends and school holidays. And honestly its a big place with a lot of space for visitors and activities! This place even deserves more of that ;)

    Hope to hear from you and best regards for now!

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We consider 2-5 hours a day is a good amount of time to get something done. During that time we will sometimes work together. Sometimes you will get good directions for the work to be done and sometimes be free to stear the work according to what we agree. When we are not available to give directions u can choose tasks from our weekly list.


    Food we sometimes cook together sometimes seperate depending on how the day looks and how we feel works best. You have access to shared or your own kitchen 24h a day.

    We supply food we usually eat ourself but are trying to cater to most tastes. We eat meat but are fairly used to vegetarian cooking and together its usually easy to sort out stuff like this.
    Depending on the amount of help per day we may supply grosarys for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    You can reach us by train. Bus, bike, car. Stockholm is 2-3h away and you can basicly go all the way here directly.

    here there are bikes, a small boat, camping equipment, fishing equipment, many lakes and other places to go on your free time. We belive that if you love Swedish nature and countryside here is a great place to be!
