CURRENT MISSION

Life is too short to not start laughing at it!! - preferrably with other openminded people!

ABOUT ME

I am a visionary creative soul who wants a good laugh and a better world for all of us.
For the moment I am a "burned out" filmmaker/director/producer. Also an ex- translator (French-Swedish) and speak Spanish as well. I like mostly vegetarian food.
Two years ago I lived in a cottage in the woods of Småland in Sweden. There we grew our own vegetables which has become a passion. This is also one of the reasons why I was in Spain last winter; to work on ecological farms to learn more and be close to the fruits and vegetables that look so sad in the swedish supermarkets...

Now more than 8 years later after writing this first text above, I have been living on my farm in the Canary islands for 6 years and I have then come back to Sweden to get back to swedish life and slowly getting back to film making again. Wow...

PHILOSOPHY

I always see solutions and humour where ever it is needed in this absurd world. Through filmmaking I learn more about Nature, spiritualism etc... I want to know more about natural plant medicine in Spain...and I have my whole life to learn...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been travelling in the south of Spain for rehabilitation of my burned out brain, writing and working learning at eco-farms that are members of www.wwoof.es

Music, Movies, and Books

Music preference: for example jazz, cool singsongwriters and disco-music from the 60-70ies, world music, fado, space rock etc...everything that makes me fly away on little clouds and move my body and mind!

Movies: The ones that make you think and act for a better world as well as gives you hope and joy, good laughs and fantastic surreal aestethic experiences. This is by the way the goal of every film project I make.
Ex: Terry Gilliam's movies (although not seen all), Chaplin, Almodovar, Mike Leigh, Pink Floyd's The Wall, Taxi driver, British and French films from the 60-70ies, Robert Altman's films, Blade runner etc etc etc...sitcoms like Seinfeld or Portlandia...etc...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last winter we saved a moose who was stuck in the ice of our neighbour lake in the forest. It was so touching to see how the moose-hunters helped the lady back to the forest. My interpretation of this situation on a philosophical level: Sometimes the enemy is your friend...

Many years ago when I lived in Toulouse there was a cloud full of thunders that never touched ground. No sound, only light blixters in the air. Was it Thor on his carriage passing by...I just wonder..?

I planted 250 fruit trees on my farm on El Hierro, the smallest of the Canary islands... I lived without electricity for almost five years in one of my cottages there...
