Description
Somos una pareja Mexicana/Sueca radicando en Chiapas, México. Ya volaron nuestros hijos y la vida nos está dando la oportunidad de viajar y descubrir el mundo. Ya conocimos a Escandinavia e Islandia, ahora nos toca Perú... y posiblemente algunos de sus conlidantes.

Ambos trabajamos dando naturopatía, o sea quiropráxia, masaje, reflexología, herbolaria etc.

Nos conectamos mucho con la naturaleza y nos gusta la vida simple, del monte. Nos gusta leer y los temas de espiritualidad y sanación en un amplio sentido.

Tenemos experiencia de muchos tipos de trabajo y somos abiertos a aprender algo nuevo. Ambos sabemos cocinar. Mattias tiene licencia para manejar.

ENGLISH:

We are a Swedish/Mexican couple living in Chiapas, Mexico. Our children have left the nest and life is giving us the opportunity to travel and discover the world. Scandinavia and Iceland is already off the bucket list, now it´s time for Perú! ... and perhaps some of it´s neighbours.

We both work in the field of natural medicine. Chiropractic, massage therapy, reflexology, herbal therapy etc.

We are very much into nature and enjoy the simple life at the mountain´s slope. We are into reading and have a deep interest in spirituality and healing in a broad sense of the word.

We have experience in many fields of work and are open to learn new things. We both cook. Mattias has a driving license.

What a Fabulous three weeks I had with Mateas and Bijorn. It was like having a brother and a nephew here helping out. They both worked Hard at the tasks they were given, such as log splitting/stacking firewood, moving and spreading gravel, and stucco work. I especially enjoyed Matias’s knowledge, intuitive Personality and good nature. Bjorn… read more

I (Mattias) spent three wonderful autumn weeks with my 14-years-old son / Lupita did not come with us this time / at Tom´s place, taking part in his construction project with some woodcutting and dirt shoveling on the schedule as well. We had a great time. Well, for me great but for my son Björn more than so. 14 is an age of formation and when we… read more

Mattias and Lupita spent 3 weeks with us, starting around the 3rd week of July. We had a great connection from the very first day. The help they were required for, was a bit here a bit there, helping me to tidy around, clean, and do some handy projects around the house and the dog yard. Mattias is a wise person, like the older brother you never… read more

Arya is a great person, almost too invested in the people around her, to a degree where she sometimes exhaust herself. She´s truly concerned about everyone´s wellbeing and wants everyone to feel good, safe and understood. And yes, it´s true as it says in her profile that you can trust her given word. And she´s generous too!

We visited Lannavaara… read more

Mattias and Emil were amazing helpers. We hosted them for 3 months and it was a great experience. They helped with so many projects - cutting & stacking a year's worth of firewood, painting our barns and repairing the perimeter fence to name just a few. We very much enjoyed meeting them. They had such a great work ethic and enthusiasm.

Confidence and trust are among the first words that come to mind when I´m going to describe my experience from having stayed with Ann and John for three months in early 2021. I´ll never forget Ann´s reaction when I had to tell her that my 14-year-old son Emil, who traveled with me, happened to break a plank on the barn with the tractor - a hearty… read more

Mattias and his son Bjorn were a pleasure to host! Mattias is fun and interesting to chat with and his son is a great kid. Mattias did meticulous work and transformed our weedy garden. They would be welcome back any time : )

I never met Tom, who was traveling when I visited Deena in August 2019 with my 10-year-old son in company. What can I say; Deena was extremely friendly, helpful, generous and nice. She drove us to the beach, she wanted us to try S´mores and made a fire in the garden just for that, she took Björn to the library and made pizza with him. She really… read more

What do you prefer: a sunny slope towards a lake - with loons on it - or a confident, generous workaway hostess that invites you to share her rural life, friendships, music, life story etc? Don´t worry, you can have them both! ;-)

I spent two wonderful weeks at Lauras little farm in the hay harvest - and also lobster! :-) - time in August 2019. Just have a look at the map - Matinicus doesn´t only look exotic, I tend to believe what the locals say that it´s a magical island, choosing it´s own people... If you have any sense of adventure, don´t hesitate to go there. Laura has… read more

Very capable of, and willing to be, working independently on projects involving manual labor. Very interesting person for conversations about Shamanism and spirituality. Mattias would definitely be welcomed back if he were traveling in our area again.
