Description
We’re a family of four! Me (Marin 23), Kristian (28) and our two kids Boas and Maja.
Kristian works as an inventory manager at a fishing/ship company. I work two jobs. One which is a shop for national clothing, that my parents own and I work in the ambulance as a paramedics assistant.
Our kids are 3 and 6 years old. We’re social people, so you won’t have issues getting to know us and feeling at home.
We live in a small village, called Hvalvík in an old house from 1828. The house is built of the same materials as the church in Hvalvík. The materials came from a stranded “ghost ship”, there was no crew on board, so they used the materials to build our house and the church. We live here with our two children and our dog.
