About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Change the world...

ABOUT ME

I am a different guy with HIGH ambitions and a lot of crazy ideas.. I am spontaneous and I do whatever i want. Sometimes I am provocative which is a problem for some people, however not for me.. :)
I live in Gothenburg until I have finished my PhD. After that I have no idea what's happening with my life.

Feel free to contact me if you are going to Gothenburg and want to share the floor with my dust bunnies, or maybe borrow my couch..

I haven't been eating any sweets (or any sugar at all) since 2004 so don't be offended when I say no if you offer me some.. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Never try, never know... (Regards EVERYTHING, except suicide)

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to music most of the time, a lot of different music and I would love to get to know your favorites (as long as it's not heavy metal)!

I'm not a movie or a book person since I rarely find the time to sit down and just relax. I rather spend my time with different projects or socializing with my guests. However, I enjoy watching a movies once in a while and a favorite one is Into the Wild.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been trekking and bungy jumping in New Zealand, diving at Sipadan, climbing Mt Kinabalu at Borneo and paragliding in India. The nature is AMAZING!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Paragliding instructors, I want to learn everything they know...

I love teaching and I've been teaching engineering students in several different courses for many years now. If you are studying engineering, especially chemical engineering, I would be happy to share everything I know! Understanding the world around you and be able to describe it using basic physical principles and differential equations makes life so much more interesting! :)

Australia, Canada, Denmark, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Switzerland, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, United States
