Description
Hi,
We are a couple of 70 and 65 years young, Jos (dutch) and Susanne (swedish). We have moved to our little "farm" with 5.5 ha forrest and acres close by Söderköping in Sankt Anna's skärgård. The farm is only 1,5 km from the Baltic sea. We are living here now for some years and we are almost ready with the renovation of the farm. We are growing our own (organic) vegetables, herbs and flowers.We have bees and a cat. So if you have experience in the garden and building than you are more than welcome.
We have been travelling ourselves very much and it is therefore we like to welcome people from different cultures now at our own place. For us is life more then only working in the garden. We like the quietness and beauty of the place and her surroundings. Besides that we are interested in talks and sharing more filosofical questions around life and meditation.

This has been an unforgettable experience. As my first time using workaway, it was very successful. I got to see the interior of rural Sweden and learn a great amount about the country and the region's biology. Near by is a quaint hamlet with some historical sights, as well as a beautiful national park.
