About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to see the world

ABOUT ME

I was born 1979 in Klippan, a small town in the southern parts of Sweden. I studied in Lund and then 2005 I moved to Gothenburg (a town of 0.5 million people on the west coast of Sweden) where I live today.
I work as a design engineer in the automotive industry. When I don't work I enjoy running and football and to spend time with my friends and girlfriend.
I like music and like to see live performances when I'm out traveling.

I'm easy going and I really enjoy meeting new people and having new experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

There are no strangers, only friends you haven't met!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My nieces are amazing!

Traveling is amazing.

Then to swim in "Mareld" (don't know the English word) is quite cool. I think it is plankton and they begin to glow really strong when you touch them so when your swimming amongst 'em in the night the water sparkles and glows. If you come to Sweden you might enjoy this!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can learn you how to juggle with four balls and how to wiggle your ear :)
