We Time
The idea
At the beginning of our journey we were looking for a ‘theme’ that would guide our next steps. A number of aspects were of importance for this matter: people – connecting – generations – relationships – outdoor – exercise – sport – nature – stories – experiences. We thought this through and developed it further into our guiding concept. Together with you, we would like to fulfil this idea.
Background
People have become increasingly busy and are living on tight schedules. This puts a good and valuable social life under pressure. In addition, the focus often lays on the individual in many different ways. While there is nothing wrong with this, every person still heavily depends on their social network and environment. Your background and family’s history, traditions and relationships, but also friends and other (social) groups, play an important and often decisive role.
Sometimes they play a controlling role, but most often they are present on the background. It could be valuable to learn, hear and understand more about this; it is your own DNA after all. Thus, each family and group has its own history, stories, traditions, customs, cuisine, language, names, knowledge and skills. It consciously or unconsciously defines family: a unique and special unity with common, typical bonds.
Our dream
Finding and enhancing these relationships and traditions, stories and practices, knowledge and skills is what we call: ‘We Time’. For this, we would like to offer you a special place in a beautiful and inspiring environment. Together you can get to know the uniqueness of your family or group, deepen it and pass it on.
The basis
Within our own family, we organised a small study concerning the wishes and dreams living between the different generations. We discovered parallels we did not expect. There were several items on the dream lists, which both members of the family would like to do, to learn or to experience together, without knowing this from one another. Grandpa would love to make a long hike with his granddaughter in the hills. Grandson would love to learn to prepare that specific, delicious regional dish from Grandma. Son would love to make a trip together with his mother. For example, there are wishes and dreams within families and between generations (or in groups), which often remain unspoken and certainly not yet fulfilled; simply because we do not know them from each other, no time is being allocated or no suitable place is available for it.
THE LODGE Torsby
We would like to introduce THE LODGE Torsby: a special and historic place in mid-Sweden (Värmland region), located alongside the beautiful lake ‘Nedre Brocken’ and at the foot of the ‘Hovfjället Nature Reserve’. A place, richly surrounded by nature, authentic and unique stories, that will inspire you.
The concept of ‘We Time’ obviously not only applies to just families, but also to friends or groups, (sports-)teams or colleagues.
