Description
I am Bente or Shanti. I live in a beautiful place by the sea in Hallangspollen, close to the small town Drøbak. It takes only half an hour with bus from Oslo to get here. I love to have the view of the sea, go down every morning and take a swim. And then I do some yoga exercises in the sun after the bath.
I have 2 cayaks by the water, which can be used by my visitors. This is a summer-house area, and a very quiet place. I have a greenhouse and a garden, and I grow salads, herbs, tomatoes, cucumbers and red peppers. I love being here in the summer. But if I go visiting others a week or two, I need somebody to water the plants. I have a electric bike, so visitors easily can go shopping (about 4 km to shop) There are forests good for walks
