My Swedish family's property in northern Sweden, near the Norwegian border. It was a working farm for decades, but now is used mostly for recreation (fishing, hiking, simply being) when the upkeep chores are done. Northern Char and lake trout in the big lake, rainbows in the smaller lakes that abound in the surrounding forest. Midnight sun in June and, of course, millions of mosquitoes.
