Fredrik, owner of land and house, taking care of the forest and also help other land owner to take care of their forest. I, Christina, work part time with horses as trainer and international judge. Together have we 6 children but they all grown up but come and visit during weekends.
We have a quite big house and garden. We are very close to our own small lake there we swim and fish. We also have a boat in Mälaren, a big lake. On the estate is it also a boarding stable for horses and we also renting out houses. It´s not rowdy here but its people close around.
