Flat in Risør, Norway
My flat is situated on a hilly part of he coastal town Risør in Southern Norway. The flat is quite modern and easy to keep. Close to sea with a really fantastic view to Skagerrak and North Sea. Car parking a few steps from the flat. To the very centre of Risør town you will need no more than a 10 minutes walk. Risør is known for its beauty with white houses in town centre and is a very popular summer resort for many Norwegians. And the weather is also quite stable during summertime.
About the flat:There is only one bedroom with double bed, but a spacious bathroom, an open living room and kitchen. For musicians I can offer a new Bechstein piano. But to read more about Risør I propose following website: visitrisor.no or risorby.no

Lifestyle
Undertegnede er blitt 75 år, og som pensjonist i Risør er jeg aktivt med i den lutherske menigheten i byen. Min kjæreste Edna er også 75 år og bor i sørlandsbyen Arendal. Av utdanning har jeg studert språk med tysk, latin og historie. Og etter et aktivt yrkesliv som journalist har jeg også tatt en bachelorgrad i italiensk. Av interesser ellers står klassisk musikk høyt på listen. Vinterstid går jeg gjerne på ski (langrenn) og forsøker resten av året å holde meg i form med å gå turer og sykle.
Både Edna og jeg har interesser i retning av sang og musikk, litteratur og språk, og vi liker å reise og oppleve ulike kulturer. Her har Intervac vært en flott organisasjon å bruke aktivt.
