current mission
exploring south India on bicycle, also exploring the limits of the rather bicycle I’m riding on , Jan-April 2020

ABOUT ME

All of a sudden 40 years past , I’ve been so busy writing songs , painting watercolour, building houses, singing, getting lost on my bicycle and wearing strange clothes so I didn’t see the time fly .
Good thing is I still seem to be curious and hungry to understand the world.
But the mysteries just get deeper the more I dig . I just changed my 10 years old profile text on C.s and noticed some things changed but some still remain .

Since then I’ve started writing songs , it took me 20 years to get started but now all those songs can’t wait to come out , my imagination also got more absurd lately , and my desire to cycle round the world got stronger . I still feel strongly drawn to India

I live in a small village/ alternative/culture community in the countryside in southern Sweden , it’s like extended hippie festival mixed with post apocalyptic art project according to some visitors , come and see for your self ,
,

PHILOSOPHY
People are complex
Life even more so
But it’s a true blessing we’re here
