    Description

    This is my small farm in beautifull Kabelvåg. Small and old, cosy house, with caravans (more people living here) and a big beautifull garden and the wild right in the back of the house - supernice for small or longer walks/hikes. Some vegetables-growing and a lot of different projects. Sauna in the wild :)
    I love the outdoors and different activities like climbing, surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, kayaking, and more. Here it's possible to do almost everything (Lofoten). Maybe I can help out with some equipment to :)

    I have to kids; 6 and 9 year old boys, living in the house every second week, in the summer most of July. Family also visiting.
