Me and my wife live as a retired couple in Sweden. We like to share our life here in this country and show you how a typical retired couple live in Sweden and how this country looks like.
We have a house on a small island in the Baltic sea in Sweden where we stay all year around. That means slow living in the countryside with long light summer days and short dark winter days. We like to share our time here with you, how we live and what we do on the house and in the garden. Hope you enjoy. We also have, since a couple of years, an apartment in Linkoping, a town in southern Sweden. We where both born in this town but did, when we were around 20 years old, move to Stockholm where we both worked and still have our children and grandchildren. From time to time I make a film in Linkoping when we are there, documenting how the town and its surroundings looks like today.
