Cabin in the Woods

My housing is located just outside of town about 3km walk from the downtown. It is a single room cabin in amongst many others in the Ostersund Campsite.

The campsite is not really a campsite but meerly a place for tourists to rent a room for a relatively cheap price. Per month I pay about 300 CDN.


There are about 150 cabins in the camping site set up in a 'multiplex' setting. Everything is supplied from water to heating, cutlery, plates and furniture. The beds are bunk beds and I have two sets, which can be folded up at attached to the wall when not in use.


The mattresses are not comfortable as they are foam...but they will do for now. The cabin is small, but quaint. I have a kitchen table, desk, chest of drawers and shelves as well as a kitchen which is the same size as the one I left on Princess Ave: SMALL.

Hey Natalie,
The cabin in the woods sounds wonderful and romantic. I have a great picture in my head from your description. I wonder how it will match to your reality pics. It also sounds like it was a good thing that you didn't bring cutlery. :) Regarding the smallness...less to clean!

Hey Gnat,
Back from Spain, glad to hear that you made it there safe and sound and only with a little bit of stress (haha?). Pretty excited to see what you left for me on my bed. Got some bad news though, bought Jo the Mont Blanc for her bday....you can't be the only one smelling like candy, its just not fair. I'll send you pics from my trip.

Good thing you didn't move from your place on Princess. This way you're used to living in such a small space. It looks very cute, all you need is a fire place. I hope it doesn't get to cold in there. Miss you
