  Description

  If I would describe myself in a few words it would be: authentic, driven and openminded entreprenuer with a soft touch. I have a background in hospitality and property development in combination with spirituality, horses and natural health. I love personal development and I love sharing my space with likeminded. I have lived half my life in Stockholm, I travelled a lot and now settled down at my own farm.
  
  I bought the farm a couple of years ago and I am now transforming it into a renovated two floor house, a big barn for having retreats and gatherings and a place for different kinds of animals. I am creating a community and a place where people can live, meet and hang out around in the countryside just outside of Eksjö in Sweden, 2,5 hrs by train from Stockholm. The surroundings are very nice and there is a lake just nearby. There are horses, cats and ducks living at the farm.
  
  I have a house and mind which are always open for workawayers and right now in the nearest future I am looking for:
  
  GENERAL HELP

  Here are some words from Paula who spent 7 weeks at my farm last summer:
  
  "Dear Emma,
  Thank you so much for this peaceful stay. Your whole place is so amazing and special. True magic can be made here. This space means freedom, healing, connection and light. I always felt heard, welcome and truely seen for who I am. Thank you for all the talks + connections to you and myself. This experience means so much to me and made me realize the importance of living truely and by heart. Thousand Thanks and Hugs! Paula <3 "
  
  Ask us for the link to the latest article in Switzerland written about me and my workawayer and how we are cooperating!
  
  Looking forward to your request!
  
  Best regards,
  Emma & The Animal Family

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Building a community will have pretty much the same values anywhere in the world but we can add the freedom of moving freely in the forests and how we care for the animals as family members. You will learn how to take care of multiple animals, to feel responsability. You will also get to practice communication skills, both the language and how to express your feelings and needs. You will also be familiar with authenticity.

  Hébergement

  Staying together in a two floor house, simple accommodation since the house is under renovation. Simple but it will feel like a home and I always try to make us all feel a little privacy. Summertime I can also sometimes offer Glamping - camping outside in a tent with furniture. Living in the nature surrounded by fresh air and animals.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  Internet is available via network cable and an ethernet connection. Trying to minimize the wireless things we use everything wired in the house - no wifi, no bluetooth. When pet sitting internet might be restricted since the mobile internet follows when travelling.

• 

  Espace pour garer des vans

  Camper van can be brought and will be placed where space available at the time. More people are staying at the area sometimes and flexibility is needed.

• 

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  Not if staying in the house since there is already one cat who needs a sacred space.
