Calle Halfvarsson has a slightly odd charge for the World Cup in Trondheim.
Since he is not allowed to go home to his family right now, he is forced to live at home with his grandmother and grandfather.
-It’s been 25 years since I last slept there, he says in the Expressen pod Vallaboden.
The national team veteran Calle Halfvarsson35, has been traveling with the other Swedish cross -country skiers for three weeks. There have been World Cup weekends in French Les Rousses, Swiss Engadin and Italian cogne. Calle has been with all three weekends and actually got to step up on the pallet together with Oskar Svensson Most recently. The duo came third on the sprint relay.
Now Halfvarsson is finally back in Sweden! One might think he was rushing with a ride home to the cohabitation Isabell And the children Casper-Lo and Stella. But unfortunately it has not been. For starters, it was one night at a hotel at Arlanda, as they landed in the middle of the night after the Italy trip.

Then he was suddenly not welcome home. Both Isabell and the children had become ill. He cannot take the risk of living with them just weeks before the World Cup in Trondheim.
– So now I have to keep staying away from home. That’s how it is now. I get to go around and visit people, says Calle in the Expressen pod Vallaboden
When he does the interview with the evening newspaper, he sits with an old friend in Falun. He reveals in the same vein that he had to find a slightly unexpected sleeping area.
– I live at home with my grandmother and grandfather in Sågmyra right now. This is where I got slag the last nights. It’s been 25 years since I last slept over there. So it’s a little special. But it’s a little fun to do it again now. It’s a bit cumbersome. But above all, it’s sad not to meet Isabell and the children, he says.

He does not know at all how long he is forced to be away from home and family. Sambon is pretty scratchy and in the worst case he may have to stay away for a week. It is not optimal now before the World Cup. As I said, he cannot risk wearing any illness now.
– Yes, I can’t go home until everyone is completely symptom -free. This time of year, I have to be super -grown with things like this, he says.
We understand that this is hard, Calle. We’re suffering with you. At the same time, it is necessary that you do this way so that you do not risk missing the World Cup. Hold out!
