  Description

  Hi!
  I´m Lena and I live in a little "farm" in the forest in southern Dalarna with my boyfriend Nihad.
  I have two children, Felicia 22 and Frej 20. They both moved away to live by themselves.
  Normally I work as a high school teacher in Spanish and Social science. Sometimes I also work as guide in an adventure mine here nearby. Right now I have a year off work and study history online.
  I just bought another house up north, between Sundsvall and Östersund, which is part of a future project. So right now I stay at both places.
  There are lots of chores that needs to be done at home and we need some help with that. Mainly renovation. The thing I´m most interested to get help with right now is putting tiles on the kitchen walls.
  
  It´s 2,5 km to different lakes where you can have a swim.
  Nice paths for running/walking in the forest.
  Lots of culture activities in the area.
  Since this is a former mining area, lots of old mines to discover. I work extra in the greatest one, Äventyrsgruvan (adventure mine) where you can climb a 4 hours tour. 60 km to the north is an other mine you can visit, Falu Koppargruva, which is a World Heritage. Many of the industrial heritage sites are promoted together in a concept called Ekomuseum Bergslagen.
  The bus stops are 2-3 km away in two different directions.

  Aide

  Right now I would love to see someone who can put tiles on the walls in the kichen. Plumming skills would also be good.
  We need help to fix mopeds, bikes and cars and all other things that break down ;) So that is for people with special skills in motors and construction.
  We also need help with renovation projects and gardening, things anyone with a little extra time could do. And a person who can handle a chain saw would be very welcomed :)
  If you would like to help cooking and baking sometimes would also be nice.

  Hébergement

  You live in a typical Swedish red "friggebod". It´s a 10m2 house with room for 2-3 people. There is a micro wave where you can warm things, but normally we eat together in the family house (when I´m not at work). There you can also take a shower and use the toilet. There is WiFi in and outside of the family house.
  We eat all kinds of food, mostly organic. If you help cooking vegan food is no problem :)
  If you want to stay in a private room or house that´s also possible.
