This was my first experience in worldpackers and it was perfect! We had different tasks each day and we learned a lot about the swedish countryside's culture. Marie has traveled a lot and her house is like a museum. She also has an unique vision of the world and i'm so grateful that I could take part in her art. She is very flexible and really nice. Such a great experience!

Marie is a wonderful soul. Getting to know her and her art was an enlightening experience. She has a really peculiar way of seeing people and the project. She's traveled a lot so hearing about her experiences is quite enrichening. Moreover, by helping around in the farm I got to know the Swedish lifestyle while learning maintenance skills. It was my first Worldpackers experience and it went really well. I'm glad to have taken part in Marie's art and farm.

Good place and nice host. If you want to have a beautiful contact with the project is the right place with its lake adnd its forests. The daily hours of work are good and you learn new skills by working with Marie.

This experience was rich in every single possible way. Marie is a great person and made me feel like home, taught me and indulged her knowledge through different activities and projects. I could not be more grateful for my time there.
