CURRENT MISSION
Horses-24/7, finding time...
ABOUT ME
I'm all about living at a slow pace, I will still get everything I need out of life, it's all about priorities. I'm a dreamer and a schemer, culture vulture with a deep love of nature and country life.
At the moment I'm sick of studying, even film, and will hopefully find work come fall, but this summer will be my travelling time, my free time to think about the future and today, the past is the past.
I'm from a big family so even though I'm a bit of a loner I enjoy large gatherings and talky people now and then.
I like travelling by foot, bike, horse, at a slower pace and with a fuller experience. I'm scared of flying which may seem a hindrance for a traveller, but not to me, there's always a train and/or boat.
Future destinations: Canada, USA, Moscow, Greece
PHILOSOPHY
To explore is to be, but the being may be slow.
I'm still young and have all the time in the world, I guess I'm not one of those who live every day as if it was my last one, that would make me too sad and stressed out. And I always plan for the future and think about how things will be then instead of now, this may be my downfall. I trust that I have the time to do what I want and if in the end not - I only have myself to blame.
I don't believe that our dependence on people in our lives, and their on us, will stop us from going wherever we wish, but consideration is a must.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm amazed every time I come back to Skåne, from abroad or further up the country, because it's so beautiful and I feel utterly at home here!
I love the feeling and atmosphere at Roskilde Festival, every time is just as good, that's amazing!
Taking the train and ferry through Europe to London instead of taking the easy way - flying. Took 24 hrs instead of 4 but was an all the more interesting journey.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm all about living at a slow pace, I will still get everything I need out of life, it's all about priorities. I'm a dreamer and a schemer, culture vulture with a deep love of country life. I hope and wish to teach people this, if it even can be tought.
I would like to learn how to open up more and tell people about myself, I'm more of a listener and maybe I'll always be but I'm willing to try and maybe change.
Practical skills? I'm a good horse rider but without a horse, can play the guitar fairly well, great driver and a super cook! I would like to learn more about car engines, how to skate, surf, ride a motorcycle and play the fiddle!
