I am second generation Estonian in Sweden and have been working many years as a rural advisor at the Rural Economy and Agricultural Society Gotland. I have been a project coordinator in a lot of interesting projects financed by the European Union, Swedish Institute etc and worked with small scale food producers in Gotland and Estonia, people that provide different kinds of tourist products and packages, small scale fishermen, product development and culinary heritage networks.
Since 2012 I also have the title of Honorary Consul of Estonia on Gotland.

 I live in a smaller municipality in southern Gotland, in Hemse with my husband Anders, a former farmer and our Phaléne dog Winnie.


We try to live as sustainable as possible, we grow our vegetables and prepare the harvest as environmentally friendly ways as possible like fermenting for example. Energy from our sunpanels on the roof help us with heating and to drive our plug-in-hybride car.
