I am a one-person family, living in the city center of Stockholm, in the township named Kungsholmen.
My two sons, 24 and 26, live nearby. I retired in 2018, after 18 years with the International Union of Tenants, IUT. Previously in life I was a high school teacher, in biology and chemistry, and also worked with the UN Association of Sweden.
Interests are sailing (my own boat), skiing (downhill and cross country, skating (in the archipelago) - and travelling. I have "discovered" India, which I have visited four times. Also hiking, in various European countries.
My flat, on 5th floor, consists of a bedroom, a spacious living room, hall, kitchen and an eating area. Size of flat: 75m2, or 807 feet2.
I am a city person, but I need access to nature. When moving around in the city, I use my bicycle.
