About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy to get to know, outgoing guy, who just loves meeting new people, especially while travelling. I live with my mother in central Stockholm, and have had several occupations during the last 5 years e.g. actor, voice actor, bike-mechanic, bar-back, kindergarden teacher. I simply just love to take on new challenges. I also love to ski, slalom-skateboard, go out clubbing and...well almost anything, you name it.

Me and my mother have spent almost all our savings on travels, since we both love it, so I've visited many places. My father has a summerhouse in Italy why I've spent the last summers there.

I'm very interested in design, and would love to study architecture or industrial design in the future, hopefully abroad!

My favorite city I've visited is with out any doubt Berlin, Since it's so diverse and exciting. My favorite city I haven't visited must be Tokyo.

I've mostly travelled within Europe, but now it's time to get to know the world for real. Me and my Buddy Peter are travelling from Vancouver, Canada, to Buenos Aires, Argentina between March 9 and August 6

hmm What more... I love movies, and theatre and such. And comics and books. Well loads of things really

PHILOSOPHY

Passa på, passa på och glöm inte att komma ihåg

(take the chance, take the chance and don't forget to remember)
