*Please note!* When contacting us, please tell us what it is that attracts you to our family in particular. :-)
-------------------
We are a Swedish-American family who enjoy opening our home to guests from around the world. I have two children, Liam, 11, and Talila, 13 every other week and one foster child, 17 (plus three cats). We enjoy getting to know new people and we also enjoy opening guests' eyes to the beauty of rural Sweden.
We are looking for a person with a good command of English or Swedish who can help us with household jobs: cooking vegetarian/vegan food, cleaning, laundry, cat box, watering plants and garden, etc.
Plus some painting jobs and smaller projects. Cooking skills are a merit.
I am into yoga, dance, meditation, singing, hikes and other nature experiences, massage and vegan/vegetarian cooking. Together with the kids, I enjoy goofing around, movies, board games and card games. Talila likes reading, studying, singing, dancing, Justin Bieber and arts & crafts. Liam likes Playstation and hanging out with his buddies.
We have a relaxed and natural atmosphere here at home filled with warmth and laughter and we are happy to share this with others. We are all fluent in Swedish but speak mostly English.
We live in a 30 year old eco-house in a small picturesque village on the countryside.
How it works? We offer you a room and provide food during your stay. You help 4 hours a day 5 days a week, excluding cooking and cleaning up after meals (which we all help out with).
We are social and friendly, and we want you to enjoy your stay while contributing. I am happy to offer tips for outings or take you along with us when we go on outings and activities.
There are different activities happening in the area such as ecstatic dance evenings and a choir that i lead. Some of my neighbors often also host workaway volunteers so there is an opportunity to hang out with them.

The nature here is very picturesque. Ours is an open and relaxed family and, together with the peacefulness of the area, this can prove to be quite healing for mind and soul. We speak English at home mostly.
