Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Here you will live next to the animals and learn a lot about dogs since we have a kennel with happy Cockers! It is also perfect if you want to learn Swedish, since you will have company all the time.
Help
We need help with the DOGS; taking care of them, like feeding them, cleaning up after them and taking them out for walks.
We also need help with the GARDEN - grass cutting/ snow clearing/leaf raking. In the summer we are harvesting the hay and help with all kind of things you do on a farm. Some examples are cleaning the barn. ILikewise we need help in the HOUSE and with general maintainance and cleaning.
Unfortunately we have a very traditional Swedish diet, so i cannot have anyone who is vegetarian, vegan and ect.
