Heby, Sweden, Postal Code 74488

A municipality in Uppsala County in the northeastern part of the country. “The Dalälven River forms Heby's northern border. The municipality also has substantial forests with animals such as elk, deer, fox, bear and lynx.”

“Heby used to be part of Västmanland County, which borders Uppsala County to the west. In September 2005 it was reported that the municipality was permitted to be part of Uppsala County after intense lobbying in the late 1990s, following a municipal poll in 1998 where the majority was in support of the county transition. The transition took place on January 1, 2007. There were, however, forces who worked for the transition not to take place.”

There is a picture of a big Dodge or Toyota pickup, but the Swedish does not tell me why the truck is there.

If you have the time and money: “Spend some time on a Swedish farm. Close to nature, silent and calm. Visit the animals, look at the happy lambs, say hello to our rabbits, pet the horse and get fresh morning eggs from the chicken!”
