ABOUT ME

My name is Amanda Björk and I'm a 21 year old, I work as a photographer and have my own company in my hometown Umeå. Besides photography I love music, and in the summers I go to several festivals around the nordic countrys to take photos for big magazines in Sweden.

I also love travelling, my father and mother took me & my two older brothers out on backpack trips when I was a kid. So I think thats why it has become one of my main interests. I hate charter and all package deal offers there is in life.

Since I graduated from my gymnasium I have lived in Spain, in a town called Salamanca. There I read at the university, spanish and culture for half a year. And since then I been working in my own company, and been traveling to diffrent parts of the world like India, New Guinea, Bangkok, New york etc

PHILOSOPHY

Personal philosophy... enjoy life as much as you can, educate yourself and stand out of the crowd. Don't just follow.
