Descrição
Five years ago me and my daughter, who is now 16, moved into our dream place just outside Uppsala, 100 km north of Stockholm. The house is a classical red wooden house with an old barn and a small cottage. I am doing a lot of renovation work myself, and I am grateful for help from handy volonteers. My priority is to renovate the small, cosy cottage and the barn where we hope to have a B&B in the future. A dream for the future is to keep hens as well. The garden also requires quite a lot of work, so outdoor people are welcome!
