Description
We are looking for a workawayer, to come help our little family with daily life and different projects in our garden and house.
We are especially looking for someone who wants to come and help us in August.
We are also on the lookout for a workawayer who might want to stay a bit longer over winter.
We want you to come be a part of our family. We prefer that you stay for at least a month, longer is even better! We like you to be proactive and interested in getting to know us, we really want to get to know you!
We are a small family, living on the beautiful danish island Bornholm: Mira, Asta, Tuomas and Elisabeth, and our dog Jackson and cat Kleopatra.
We live in an old trainstation with a big garden, in biking distance from Rønne (the biggest city on the island), the beach and the forest.
We need help with gardening, maintenance of our house, making and stacking firewood, cooking, cleaning, playing with the kids, making projects and enjoying life in general!
In winter-time we mostly need help with cooking and cleaning and other indoor-projects.
Our life is slow and free, Asta is being homeschooled. We are either at home or out spending time with friends.
We are on a path to find the right balance between fulfilling the individual needs in our family and being dedicated members of a bigger community of homeschoolers on the island.
In our home all humans have equal worth, no matter their age. We believe it is important to be curious and respectful towards one another, and to practice how to communicate ones needs and boundaries.
We dream of being as selfsufficient with food as possible, and we eat a plantbased diet.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We believe that there is always something to learn from staying with and getting to know new people.
But more concretely, by staying at our place you can get a feeling of how it is to live on the island of Bornholm.
If you are young and thinking of starting your own family in the future, staying with us can give you an idea about how family-life can look. Since we are doing quite a few things different than the norm, it might give some food for thought. Also, we are part of an homeschooling-community on the island, and we can give you insight into an alternative way to live and parent.
Elisabeth can offer knowledge about growing vegetables and vegan cooking. Sushi-making maybe?
We live a quite calm and stress-free life, and we can help you explore the island and any interests you might have. You will have plenty of time to go explore the island, or do whatever you want.
We always try to ask our workawayers what they want to get out of their stay in our home, and we try to facilitate whatever activity they are interested in doing.

We want you to come and be part of our daily life, spending time with Asta and Mira, giving a hand in the the kitchen garden, cooking dinner and cleaning up afterwards.
We have some different projects, mostly in the garden, lots of cleaning, painting furniture and plenty of other things - the to do list is long.
We have lots of big and small projects, and we'll love for you to come and share you talents or passions with us.
Whether you love working in the garden, long walks, cooking, building, fixing, playing - we can find a project for you for sure!
Day to day life in our little family includes things like vegan cooking, working in the garden, maintenance of our house, tidying up and cleaning.
We have a bit of a daily routine (it suits some of our familymembers), and we would love for you to help with that. Besides that days are very different, depending on the season and what we feel is important right now.
Generally you will be Elisabeth's right hand, and together you will figure out what it is that you can best contribute with.
We also hope that you and our daughters Asta and Mira will be able to have fun together and hang out. Asta loves playing, reading, swinging and jumping on the trampolin. Mira loves all kinds of playing, jumping, wearing dresses and much more.
If you know how to cook vegan food, are interested in growing vegetables, can take initiative when you see that something need cleaning/tidying up, loves painting/fixing things and/or loves hanging out with kids, you are the workawayer of our dreams!
Before you arrive, we will send you a welcome letter with all kinds of information. When you are here, we will get to know each other and figure out how you will contribute to daily life,

We speak Danish, Finnish and English at home. We are always up for learning a new language or practice some of the languages we are not fluent in yet! Both Tuomas and Elisabeth finds French fun! And we are quite fascinated with Japanese, and are slowly learning. The kids speaks Danish and English and understand Finnish. They love to teach Danish to our guests. We would love a Finnish speaking workawayer! We have had many Japanese workawayers, and have learned a couple of phrases.
Hébergement
You will sleep in you own room in our house.
We cook and eat together, all food is vegan.
