My real name is Anna and I live in Uppsala, Sweden. I'm interested in ancient and modern languages and ancient medicine. Apart from English I've also studied French, Spanish, German and Turkish. I have a small collection of herbal remedies and my great-great grandmother and grandfather were what in Sweden is known as a "wise man" and "wise woman". That is, people went to them instead of to a doctor to get a cure for different kinds of illnesses but also if, for instance, a cow didn't give milk. (This was in the 19th century and public health care wasn't exactly what it is today). I'm very proud to say that I can trace my ancestry on my father's side back until 1570 when Jean Joes Henin was born in Wallonia in present-day Belgium. At the turn of the century 1500-1600 he came to Sweden and ever since then we've lived in or around the landscape of Uppland, just north of Stockholm.
Welcome to my home in Germania and thank you for reading this. May Odin watch over you and make your travels safe. |
