Help us create a sustainable paradise in a little village in the remote forests of Stugun, Sweden

  Description

  Located in a small, rural village in the beautiful forests, we are working to establish a self-sufficient, eco-friendly, nature-based home and business. This is based around our farm where I live and thrive with Nature as my foundation, and then share this with others to take out into the world. My farm is 5 Ha and consists of a couple of fields, small ski slope, a boat house on the lake, two barns, a vegetable garden, some chickens and plenty more potential that I need help realising.
  
  I am a former city guy with deep experience of sustainability, renewable energy and the corporate world, who has now changed life direction to be a Wim Hof Instructor and to establish a self-sufficient existence for the family. I have two sons, 9 and 11, who are growing up in the natural and wild world around Borgvattnet and are with me every other week.
  
  Cultural exchange:
  As if that isn’t enough, all my workawayers have the opportunity to participate in their very own Wim Hof Method experience, where we will teach you the breathwork and cold exposure techniques, and treat you to a spectacular wild bath experience if it interests you.
  
  I welcome individuals, couples and groups.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Staying with me and helping me realise our vision will leave a lasting legacy that will follow you back to wherever you come from. We are looking to give people experiences, skills, memories, friendships and connections that will help us all re-establish the global ecosystem of humans in Nature. It will help people realise how little they really need to live a purposeful, fulfilling and fun life and how technology should be an enabler and not the foundation. We come from urban backgrounds and only recently discovered living rurally, but instantly realised that it is the solution to many of the worlds problems... moving people out of synthetic and polluted cities back into natural and health boosting villages.
  
  Jamtland, the area of Northern Sweden we live in, is filled with history from Viking times, is fully a vast areas of Nature, is close enough to connections to get to the city or Stockholm if you want / need to and is filled with mostly nice people. Staying with me will also enable you to learn about what I know from our life experiences and I would love to learn from you. Please do not come to stay with me if you are not comfortable sharing your thoughts, opinions and views and are not willing to hear and explore others.

  Aide

  I am looking for people who are willing to help invest in a future that keeps on giving. Finding joy from traditional ways, skills and traditions are a must and, if you have these skills as well, a great bonus. I need help establishing and tending a no till permaculture garden, renovating and reinvigorating farm buildings, developing a concept that can perpetuate the sharing and learning of skills based at our 5ha farm, but with outreach across the village of Borgvattnet and beyond. We will also be building sustainable infrastructure to test a closed loop model of living which regenerates Nature and creates an abundance "Garden of Eden" environment where there is time to grow creatively, artistically, musically, consciously and beyond.

  Hébergement

  All workawayers stay in the farm house with their own warm bed. I basically treat all workawayers as an extension of my family, so we eat meals together and generally work together. I have two sons with me ever other week. There will be opportunities to eat from the garden that you will help tend, source food from the local organic food network, local producers and of course if you so choose the "evil" supermarket, which we are trying to increasingly avoid.
  
  I provide you with sheets for the beds and towels.
