    Description

    I am a woman who has retired from work as a teacher. I am living in a small house with a garden in a village. I do a lot of hiking in the nearby forrest and I am engaged in the local turist association both as a tour guide and in administration. I often go for hikes in the mountains with friends both summer and winter and I like biking.
    In my garden i have flowers and some vegetables and allways som projects going on.
    Other interests are reading, cooking and spending time with friends and travelling.
