Fredrik
Hi!
We are a family from Sweden of four people. My name is Fredrik Lamell and my biggest passion is exploring the world and getting to know other cultures and sceneries. My wife Madelen Thors owning four Subway-restaurants in the city Västerås where we today live in. We have our daughter Majken who are 2 years old today and 6th of June 2024 we got our son Ruben. Earlier have we travelled a lot and when our daughter Majken was borned we bought a camper van, and in Sweden we are lucky because you get 480 days of paid leave which gave us the opportunity to travel a lot with the van and Majken saw 12 countries before the age of 2. As a family, we are non-smokers, and we treat other people's homes with the utmost care and respect. We are happy to have the opportunity to discover other cultures and exchange experiences with you. Cheers and hope to get in touch soon!
