  Description

  Welcome to our workaway!
  We are Wesley and Manon, a young couple from the Netherlands.
  We came to sweden about 3 years ago to start living our dream of runing a self sufficient homestead.
  Our goal is to be as Self-sufficient as possible and live from the land as much as possible while still maintaining a comfortable and fun lifestyle.

  Aide

  The help can consist out of pretty much anything depending on the time of year.
  In this upcoming summer (2023) we have alot of renovation projects on going that include carpentry and painting (we can teach you all of that)
  
  We strive to be as Self-sufficient as possible and provide from the land. This means we cut and process firewood, pick berries and mushrooms, fish from the lakes, gather water from the well and spend a good bit of time in the garden. (that we are also going to expend this upcoming summer)

  Hébergement

  You can stay in our large 2 room caravan. or if you want/prefer to sleep in a tent, we have some tents you can use. Your also welcome to bring your own caravan/camper if you like.
  Its good to bring your own sleeping bag or blanket.
  
  -Be aware-
  Becouse we are in the begining of living off-grid we only have electricity when we turn on the generator (this may not be everyday).
  
  in the caravan there is 12V power so there you can charge usb devices like your phone when ever you want.
  
  there is no running water, all the water comes from a well, that means there is no modern shower but water can be warmed up on the stoof or taking a dip in the lake for a shower are great options ;) There will be 3 meals a day.
  We can all eat togeter, notice we are not vegetarian and meat, fish and eggs are a part of our daily meals. If you have special food needs its good to talk about that before.
