CURRENT MISSION

To live a fulfilling life on this earth as long as we can.

ABOUT ME

Well, seeing we will travel together most of the time I suppose it's best to describe us as a couple. We've been married since 1977. My husband, David comes from England, I am Swedish. We have two grown up daughters and four grandchildren. We love travelling, meeting new people, learning and sharing. SC seems to be a perfect way to do all that. We live in a newly built eco-friendly, energy-efficient house situated between two lakes. As part of our life's philosophy, we try to be so independent of the pressures of the 'rat race' as possible, this we partly achieve by keeping our living costs down i.e. by the new house and partly by running my own business, that just about gives us enough income to survive. The shop's theme also supports the modern ideas of environmental awareness and holistic self-awareness etc. I have worked as a teacher, my husband as a computer engineer. We are non-smokers.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect each other and Mother Earth whom we live on!
