Welcome to my blog!


I work with reconstructions of the crafts of the past.

The periods I am most interested in and most focused on, are the Merovingian period, the Vendel period, the Viking period and the Migration period.

I convey the daily life of the periods in focus by demonstrating historical cooking, different historical crafts and showing the clothing style of the periods at historical events.

If you are interested in history, archaeology or craft of any sorts – this is the blog for you!

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or if you just want to say hi.
