  Description

  8 adult huskies, 4 puppies, 2 horses, a cats, alongside my girlfriend, 34, and me, 54, make up the members of our small farm in Telemark. My daughters sometimes (21 and 23) come home from their studies.
  
  We try to use tools and equipment that others would consider to be exhausted or old but that are still useful to build and develop the place with simple means and local resources. We look for couples/friends that want to stay for a minimum of 6 weeks.
  
  If you are looking for a party spot, this might not be it.
