About Me

ABOUT ME

With a big heart for activism, the ocean, queer theory, democracy, veggiefood, traintravelling (although im always studying and therefor always short on cash) and I love to meet new people to chase my prejudices far away.

I have lived and worked for a while in Norway, studied and lived half a year in South Africa but grew up studying art in western Sweden close to the ocean. Pretending to be both Pippi Longstocking and Donatello of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as a child, i was a bit queer even at that time you might say.

You are very much welcome to visit me, hug my couch or just get some help to find your way in the town.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a job, I have a roof over my head and I go to bed without being hungry most nights - if I wont pick up the battle to try to change the world to a better place, then who will?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in green huts in South African rural Transkei for a month. No water, no toilet and no electricity.
I met the coolest women ever there. Hard warmhearted fighting grannys still kicking and I had the most peaceful time of my life in that village.
