ABOUT ME

Hello!

My name is Philip and I'm born 92' and from Stockholm, Sweden. I have a bachelor in international social sciences, I work within social work/ therapy, both for adults and adolescents. Sometimes I also write for a music magazine and I have a side project as a portrait photographer.

I aim to become a psychotherapist and also work with social work globally, and non-profit. I have a huge passion for writing, and I've currently written two novels in Swedish - and to be published is one of my goals. I also write in English, but mostly short stories so far. Other hobbies and interests are traveling, meeting new people, psychology, philosophy (I've studied history of ideas at uni), concerts, making music and doing sports/hiking. The list is long.

As a person I'm open minded, curious, easy going, artistic, try to always take initiatives for the sake of having fun/learn something new and making myself and the people I'm with more happy and comfortable. I try to have good values such as a non-tolerance for racism and I'm a feminist and pacifist since I believe in that all people are worth the same and that war is the very last resort.

I will gladly discuss anything between heaven and earth over a bottle of red wine, weather it's movies (I'm a film enthusiast), politics, music or whatever you like. That's also a good way of getting to know me even more!
