ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Rickard and I'm a Swedish traveler on my way around the world. So far I been traveling for 1.5 years which I consider as the very beginning of my trip. My traveling style is very slow. I like to stay longtime at the same place to really feel, experience and learn from it. I like to work me through my travels, I see that as a great way to get new experiences and get closer to the local society/culture/community. To see new stunning places is great but for me it's more important what I learn and gain to my life. So far my travels been life changing and I sure it will change my life many times more. So how long will I travel for? Hard question, maybe the rest of my life. I love to move on and challenge my self but I think that comes down to the definition of traveling. Traveling is my life and I'm more than happy to share my experiences and learn from those I meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I need to put Lapland in Sweeden as one of the most beautiful places I been to. Maybe boring because it´s my home country, but really, it´s beautiful.

Of course i have a lot of amazing climbing experiences. Climbing is the best excuse to get out on adventures.

Sleeping i the jungle under a full moon and a star clear sky in Australia is absolutely amazing and I will never ever get tired of that.
