*** Hi workawayers, come and enjoy the Swedish Midsommar ***
Hi,
Robo and Dada welcome you to this site. Inspirational summer light in a beautiful forest with picturesque lakes and nature sounds expresses what we all look for: well-being and health. Are you tempted to come and enjoy yourself with us?
Our property is only 10 km from the Norwegian border, near Lake Tvällen.
Since we acquired this place in 2014, we have tried to make it a nice place to stay, thanks to our volunteers. Some became long stayers, and some even sent siblings or friends, but we learned a lot from each one, welcoming new ideas and inspiring each other. In our workaway history, we have hosted more than 70 workawayers from all around the world.
We decided to pursue sustainable ways of life, such as baking sourdough bread, breeding chickens, semi-permaculture gardening, and recycling waste, and we gladly share our experiences.
We speak English, Slovak, and some Swedish. We enjoy practising languages during calm evenings and are enthusiasts in cooking, mainly continental style, but we also try exotic ones. Robo is a good fisherman, and I like baking and gardening.
In our house, there are three cats.
There is no easy access to public transport. If you arrive by plane at the Oslo (Norway) airport, we will pick you up at the train or bus station in Arvika or Charlottenberg (Sweden). Trains connect all critical travel hubs in Sweden; look at the website Sj.se and find the destination Arvika or Charlottenberg.
Living outside of busy cities isn’t for everyone. It is a remote forest, so be prepared for real Swedish wildlife. :) Please write if you want to spend a few weeks hiking, watching wildlife, biking, fishing, kayaking, or pondering nature. It will make you a happy workawayer. And if you are alone, bring a buddy. We prefer couples for 2-4 weeks, ages 21 years and up, and a group of 3 friends is also okay.
We look forward to meeting you!
Dada & Robo

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
There are kilometres of marked hiking trails and interpretive walks directly in the area. You can borrow bicycles, or if you want to try fishing, right next to the house are lakes with pikes, perch, and other white fish. We also have canoes, and there is a small pier if you decide to swim.
Ajuda
We are looking for volunteers who will help with basic tasks around the house, such as firewood preparation (splitting, stacking), home projects, marking tourist paths, feeding chickens, and cutting down bushes and weeds.
Our ideal workawayer is an open, friendly and practical person aged at least 21 years. We prefer that you have skills in similar work already. Minimum stay is 14 days. Due to the different types of tasks, we prefer workawayers as a couple.
Please note that we are not a company or institution providing volunteer insurance. Although we will, of course, take every precaution to prevent accidents, we strongly recommend that you have travel insurance that covers manual jobs.

Acomodação
You will sleep in a separate guesthouse—there are two bedrooms, a simple kitchen, and a bathroom. Bed linens and towels are provided. We eat lunch and, many times, also dinner together. We would appreciate help preparing the food, washing up, and finally cleaning the kitchen.
We have unlimited Wi-Fi. A mobile network to make calls is also sufficient.
There might be mosquitoes on summer nights, so we recommend using repellents (available in our house).
Algo mais...
SOMETHING FOR FISHERMEN
Only a 5-minute walk from our property is Lake Tvällen, which has approximately 100 acres. In the surrounding area (up to about 20 kilometres), there are many more lakes, some smaller but some large, with almost a thousand acres.
There is no size limit set for fish; you can fish all year long, and the amount of fish you catch is not limited (besides the trout area). Welcome are especially the catch & release fans, who prefer the beautiful experience to a freezer full of fish. We own two motor boats on nearby lakes and 2-3 more on the bigger lakes.
TOURISM
The best way to explore Sweden's beautiful nature and local cultural monuments is to take a bike or foot trip. An enjoyable experience is to take the "Path of seven farms" (7 torpsleden), which goes from Lekvattnet and follows the original trail of Finnish settlers.
OPEN-AIR MUSEUMS OF FINNISH SETTLERS
The settlement Ritamäki is one of the best preserved farms. In the summer, they offer a simple refreshment—coffee and awesome, freshly baked waffles. There are many other settlements nearby, for example, Kvarntorp or Purala.
ROWING AND CANOEING
There are many great places around this area suitable for a boat or canoe, whether for a day trip or a trip lasting several days. On lakes Tvällen and Kymmen or nearby rivers, there are many possibilities to spend a lovely time. There is access to the lake Tvällen for swimming.

Alex and other workawayers become great friends and nice company also for Robo and myself. Despite the fact that there was really hot summer in Savolx and the job was sometimes the same, he never gave up or complained to us. He was a reliable and easy going person. We wish you a good luck to complete your studies and hope to see you soon.

I have stayed one month here. Robo and Dada are very friendly. I think this is the perfect place if you want to spend time in a welcoming family. The work wasn't hard and all evenings were great, around a glass of wine and a good discussion.
The area has an warm atmosphere and you can spend your evenings canoeing in the lake.
