    Description

    Hello! I'm Simon and I live on a Swedish farm, in the traditional style with some buildings from the 19th century. There is nature all around, open fields and forests. Lots of wild animals and birds. However the closest town is no more than 15 minutes drive.

    I am preparing to aquire some animals for the farm, and I'm expanding my vegetable garden, which I wish to grow organically.

    I enjoy the country life and the practical work fixing up the place, chopping fire wood, milling lumber and tending to the garden. I am also interested in a broad range of topics, such as natural sciences, technology, history, politics, society. I like board games, especially the classical ones.
    I enjoy listening to music, some musicians I like are Keith Jarret, Nils Frahm, Árstíðir.
