I was born in the middle of the 1940ies and grew up in Stockholm, Sweden, in a very international atmosphere, something that already at an early stage awoke my interest in the world.After finishing my language studies at the Stockholm University I started to work in the travel trade in the middle of the 1970ies. The travel industry was an obvious choice as it was well in line with my inclination for exploring other cultures and languages.During the 80ies, I changed profession. I started my own company and successfully worked as a computer consultant, still with focus on the travel trade.Life, however, left a lot to be desired and after some years as a consultant, my husband and I decided to drastically exchange our comfortable suburban life for a clay hut on a Kenyan maize field. In our blue-eyed search for Paradise we, however, ran into trouble so after some turbulent years in the Kenyan countryside we had to return to Sweden. I am now living in a small town south of Stockholm, dedicating my time to my husband - who had a stroke in 2007 -, our lovely golden retriever Dino, my writing and our summer cottage. We spend the winter months in our small house in Torrevieja, Spain.
