In the march and april we have lots of sun too, november and december are quite dark and polar night (but not colorless) just stars, moon and aurora lights shining, end of the year in january and february we usually have feisty cold, sometimes -30 decrees celsius. Summer here comes late, its quite chilly in may and early june. In the summer there is of course endless day and midnight sun, sun just goes round in the sky and never goes down, it starts early june and last over a month. :)

Texto de presentación de su familia

We are family of three living in this house. Mother Jonna, 44, and my two sons Salomon 13 and Iisak 11. We travel all together or just part of us. Also two adult boys living already on their own can join us to our journeys.
I, Jonna, work as a manager in development in middle sized media corporation. I can work anywhere and like to also travel alone so even small apartments can suit us.

We have also a cat. Our friendly cat Jouko will not travel but will stay to the house if you can give him food and water and let him in or out if he wants to. Jouko survive perfectly few days on his own too, if you do longer trips. If you dont want to take care of the cat, its not a problem. Cat can also stay elsewhere.

Estilo de vida

We like to have new experiences and learn from other cultures and places. For us is important to learn our children to be open to the world, new places and experiences. Our home is beautiful, neat and spacious even for a big family. We are neat and will take good care about your home. :)
