An haven where you can meet other women and develop yourself. A meetingplace for young and old, heterosexual and lesbians, mothers and women w/o children. We all become confronted with our ways to relate to other women, which can be provocing, irritating, liberating, changing...
Kvinnohojden is a feministic course - and guesthouse, which means that we strive for women's personal and social liberation. The farm lays in the village Storsund by the lake Runn in Dalarna. Dalarna is a province in the midwest of Sweden, about 3 hours (train, bus or car) northwest of Stockholm. It is owned and operated by the "Kvinnohojds-group"; (a non-profit organization) that has had workshops since 1981. Here you can find fresh air and beautiful surroundings to walk and run in. We have "gathering-rooms", library, "work-out-room", photo-lab, sauna and boats. We have a very small sailboat, a rowboat and two canoes. In the houses there is room for about 50 women.
Kvinnohojden becomes what all the women that comes here make her into. Everybody cooperatively takes responsibility and participates in practical chores like cooking and cleaning.
