Description
I am Lucy, 44 years old. Educated in healthcare but left my Job to build a life that I could actually live in a way that makes me happy and grounded. Closer to myself and free from bad stress. In 2020 I bought a small farm in Vesterålen, northernnorway and one dream is to transform the barn into an art gallery. This may happen, and it may not…depending on what life gives me.
Kunsthuset is a registered Company, but At the moment, buissness is nonprofit. And Will be for a few years, maybe always. I always offer free shelter for travellers passing by or wanting to Explore Øksnes. I also concider my farm to be a project with No ending... It Will go where ever the moment and the People leads it.
The farm always need some overall looking after. Cutting grass, making firewood, small repairs, shoveling snow, harvesting berries, cleaning... And so on.

I deeply reccomend Anna for farm/housesitting.
Alsvag and the area around is spectacular. The weather wasn't always kind even in June but it didn't matter, the fjord and mountain views and skies kept changing. Lucy's farm backs straight onto a magical valley, it's ten minutes walk to a couple of stunning beaches, a bike is available to go on longer trips. Best of… read more
