    Description

    Hi, I’m Nina,
    74 years old, born in Sweden and living in the south of Austria.
    I speak Swedish, German, English, French and a little bit of Greek.
    I’m living in a small eco-friendly wooden house with a garden where I grow vegetables and flowers. Also living in my home are 2 cats and occasionally some ducks.
    Most of my time I spend outside, working in the garden, doing small hikes around my area or just relaxing on the deck.
    The little village where live I in is located in Styria, which they call the green heart of Austria. It is a hilly area with lots of apple farms and wine yards around.
    The capital of Styria, Graz is 50 km away and the distance to Vienna is around 180km, or 2 hours with the car.
    In my life I have travelled a lot and I love to meet new people and learn about their cultures.
