    Hi there!

    Would you like to visit the west coast of Sweden?
    Think archipelago, rock carvings, seafood, Ingrid Bergman, Camilla Läckberg & much more.

    My house in the woods is a quiet place & that's part of why I love it.
    Current residents include me, & in their own tiny house - some chickens & two geese.

    Me: Cia, 46(F), loves calm, structure, effectiveness, kindness & honesty. Avoids loud, crowded & superficial situations at all costs.
    The chickens: Varies, but usually about 5 hens, all curious & friendly. An old native breed, Hedemora & a few wyandotte. Loves food.
    The geese: Mix Swedish breed Skånegås & Italian geese. Very young, very sweet & skeptical of every little change/new experience. Loves grass & the pond.

    What do you love to do?
    Your thing might be what needs doing here.
    I have a big work-in-progress-garden, some buildings & the birds, & everything needs to be taken care of.

    I'd love an easy going person who is happy to help & likes structure.
    There is no fixed plan here, your preferences & skills lead the way.
    At the moment experienced builder/woodworker/carpenter-ish people are most wanted.
    You are expected to work 5 hours 5 days a week & acually achieve results daily.

    I don't cook, I provide the ingredients so you can cook your own meals.

    I am a selectively social loner who works best when with happy people & need time to myself as well.
    If staying in the house with me there is room for 1 person, but if staying outside in a van/tent there is room for many more.

    My house is about 70 square meters, the guest room is newly renovated.
    Both kitchen & bathroom are renovated the fall/winter of -24.

    There is no TV or internet, I only surf on my phone.

    There is a popular lake nearby (2k walk) for swimming & fishing.
    Lots of berries & mushrooms to pick in the woods.
    Plenty of woods to walk in & explore, lots of wildlife & not many people.
    15 min drive north is Tanumshede, with a mall, bank, gas stations & all the basics.
    30 min drive west you have the beautiful archipelago with towns like Grebbestad, Fjällbacka & Hamburgsund.

    Lgbtqai+ & neurodivergent friendly.

    As a native to the area I can teach you about fishing for crabs & lobsters.
    & how to cook & eat them.
    Depending on when you are here we can take the boat out & go fishing in the archipelago.

    I've lived in different parts of Sweden & learned very different things.
    I can teach you a bit about the Sapmi people & their reindeers, how to tan hides, dance bugg (Swedish dance), speak Swedish, make cheese, yoghurt & hopefully much more.

    During the warmer months the garden needs the most focus, mainly keeping grass & weeds under control.

    Aside from that.. as I said, there is no fixed plan here, your preferences & skills lead the way.

    Since I decided to renovate the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, hallway and build a veranda all at the same time.. I know, I don't know why, one thing led to another.. all these things need finishing.

    I have more things that need finishing/doing than I have energy for at the moment and would appreciate helping hands.

    I need to fix up the chicken run, making it more predator safe.

    I'd like to see how much of my french I remember since living in Nice for a while back in 2000.

    The garden needs weeding & if you enjoy that kind of thing I'd love the help.

    The grass needs raking & removing after I do some scything.

    The guest house needs clearing out, organizing & cleaning.

    I'd like to build a small dock by my pond maybe?

    There are always things to do here.

    Keeping the house clean is a joint effort. We clean up after our selves in the kitchen & bathroom daily. The floors are vacuumed & washed weekly.

    My house is about 70 square meters, the guest room is newly renovated.

    The bed is 90 cm wide, there are some closets in the same room.
    One & a half (as in little, not broken) window, nice view of the rear garden & the woods.

    We share kitchen & bathroom.

    I work full time, getting up early to feed the animals & myself & get ready for work.
    I usually go to bed about 7 pm.
    If you live inside with me I'd like it to be quiet after 7 pm.
    If you live outside in a van or tent it's up to you what hours you keep.
