About Me

Spain during the winter.

In Sweden trying to renovate two houses....In Spain relax.....

ABOUT ME

In winter relaxing in Las Palmas and in Sweden trying to get some work done on my old cottage house but now mostly working with another house I bought. For five winter seasons I worked at a ski resort, Björkliden, 250 km north of the arctic circle, close to world famous Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi. Before that six winters at the ski resort Sälen and some night clubs jobs and also lived three years in Spain. Now I have settle down on Kinnekulle in Sweden but also stay a few months a year in Las Palmas. My money I get from a small business and I don't work so much.... I like to go to the gym and riding my motor bike in the summer.. Also like hiking and to start a great evening with a nice dinner!

PHILOSOPHY

Go your own way....on your own!

What I Can Share with Hosts

House in Sweden and small top floor apartment on La Isleta, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

Sofa-bed in livingroom. I have a really small shower (60x60 cm) in the apartment in Las Palmas and the heater is only a 15 liters, so if you are into long luxurius showers you will be disappointed...
