A new member from Norway
Hi All!
I am a new member, just registered.
I have lived frugal for a long time now, and love it. We are saving money where we can, and try to live as simple as possible.
Me, my husband and our two kids aging 7 and 3 live on a farm in Norway. It is my husbands family-farm and his father and his wife are also living here. We hope that we will be able to have some animals on the farm during the spring, and I am also dreaming of a big garden of veggies and fruits!
I work as a manager in a health food shop, and my husband is unemployed, or a stay at home dad at the moment. He have been home since our youngest kid turned four months and he loves it!
I am very interested in herbs, farming, animals, simple living, green living, healthy food etc.
I am looking forward to getting to know you here, and also to get inspired!

Aloha and welcome from Hawaii!!
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
