Inspired by the sea, nature and the cultural-historical environment, Malin creates her cold-mix soaps. She makes them the old-fashioned way, but with renewed knowledge and with natural and organic ingredients.
In the small coastal village of Ratan in Västerbotten, you can swim at Storsand's sea baths, hire a boat and row over to Rataskär's nature reserve, which offers beautiful views and an interesting history trail. Stay overnight with a caravan or tent at Storsand's campsite, with a motorhome at Quickstop at the harbor in the village. There are showers and washing machines for hire. The story of Ratan is the story of one of the most important ports between Stockholm and Tornio. An unusual village, a mini-city, grew up here. Today you experience it as a bit of a Bullerby feeling when you stroll on the village road on a beautiful summer day.
