Overview
About Me
I'm a introvert fellow who often prefer being in the forest than a city and spends more time reading books than mingle. I think more than I talk, enjoys stories of the past and like to travel, whether it's greeting a new culture or just walking outside the door. Japan is the place that made the biggest impression on me, and Berlin is the city I've felt most comfortable in.
I choose vegetables over meat, but been seen eating a slice of bacon every now and then. Curious and enjoy exploring on hand, take my time and love getting lost.
I usually did bring the camera most everywhere, and though I do it less nowadays, I focus on video and cinemagraphs.

Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to most music but only keep track of progressive/psy/blues/doom/heavy-ish rock. The current housing isn't too far from Gothenburg, where a lots of bands are playing, which is great.
Other than that; a good chiptune or some classical while driving the car.
There's too many good bands name but here's a few from Sweden: Graveyard, Witchcraft, Mamont, Truckfighters, Horisont, Magna Mater, Uran, Kebnekajse, Gravmaskin, Pyramido.
Best gig? Must have been Church of Misery. Tatsu Mikami is one of the coolest dude around!

I read mosly sci-fi and fantasy. One of my favorite is "The name of the Wind" by the handsome Mr. Patrick Rothfuss. That book got me back to reading after a some years of abscene, and I thank him for that!
Boardgames, Pen & Paper RPGs - Hell yeah!
Videogames?
Ait, I do enjoy a game of Adventure, Point-and-Click. Roguelike/lite, 4X or Strategy. I'm a sucker for pixel-grahphics-done-right and low-poly graphics.

Other than rewatching Star Trek TNG over and over, I enjoy a wide variety of movies. When growing up I usually rented movies from the shady backrooms, next to the pornshelf where they kept all the gore/horror/indie films... The first Evil Dead movie ís a great one and Nicolas Winding (Only God Forgives) is worth a mention and also; try watching 2001: a Space Oddyssey on shrooms.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Right now I wont be able to host you, but I'll grab a beer and go to a gig in Gothenburg if you're up to it!
If you rather be on the countryside I could show you some good spots. I've been driving around on most smaller roads and corners where I live so I know a few. (Allemansrätten is an awesome thing!). There's alot of old churches, structures and runestones around and I'll be glad to point out a few.
