Ardy traveled much of the world and spent time exploring the United States in her RV. She greatly enjoyed the time she spent living on her own yacht in California. Ardy was extremely proud of her Swedish heritage and was fortunate to have the opportunity to visit her extended family in Sweden and maintained those cherished relationships throughout the years.
