About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To write a bestseller and travel the world!

ABOUT ME

One part of me loves spending time with myself writing/reading/thinking/dreaming and going for long walks.
Another part of me is craving adventure and new inspiration (and new characters to hang out with :). My feet are itchy. Life is too short not to be experienced to the max ...

This year I'm turning 30 and I'm celebrating by doing a writing project called "Swenglish"
I'm spending 30 weeks staying with 30 different people (half of them in Sweden, half of them in England)
You can follow you journey at www.swenglish2012.blogspot.com

PHILOSOPHY

Follow your dreams! ("When you stop dreaming it's time to die" - Blind Melon)
