Nowdays we are only two in our home, Robert and Linda. We loves to travel and experince new places. Citys or countrysides, we love both.

Linda (45) is a senior manager in Norrköpings municipality with responsibilty for labour issues and financial aid, and Robert (47)is a a military officer.

We have a cat, Morris. He is a really friendly cat that we love very much. He needs love and care when we are gone, and we prefer if he can stay home in your hands. If you plan to go away for a night or two we have friendly neighboours that can help. If you would like to travel and be more free at your stay, of course we arrange some other care for him.

We sometimes travel together with our two aduldt children and our grandchild or with two close friends. If that will be the case of course we first check out with you.
