About Me

Update 2017

34 yrs old. Working as a resident in emergency medicine in Sundsvall, Sweden. 2 kids (2 and 5 yrs old) and married last summer. Been travelling quite a lot around the world - the last years mostly in Sweden.
I'm an outdoor enthusiast. Love mountains, forests and the sea. Never decline a oppertunity of physical exercise.

Old presentation 2007
I think of myself as openminded and usually get along with all kinds of people. Since I´m swedish, or more specific from the northern part of sweden, I am a tranquile person and don´t usually get stressed up.

I like DOING things, and am not the kind off person who can spend hours doing nothing. A like to have a full scheduel at times, but also to join in on unexpected events and hate the predictable every day life. Everyday should have some kind of adventure in it.

What I wanna do before I die: becoming a doctor. Go to Galapagos. Roadtripping in the US. Walk the Inca trail. Explore Amazonas. Learn how to surf (have started). Travel the transibirian railway. Volunteerwork in Africa. Get a family, and so on...

PHILOSOPHY

Go before it's to late. Live everyday as if it's your last. Don't wait for tomorrow to do what you could've done today...

Interests

Travelling (of course) and sports of almost any kind. Love the snow and snowboarding/skiing. Love running in the forest, mountains. Used to play basketball. And when possible - horseriding, diving, swimming, paddling, bicycling... Pretty much up to anything.
Trying to enjoy life as much as possible, from eating a good meal or having a glas of good wine to just walk in the nature and appreciate it´s beauty.
