About Me


I am from a mixed background. I was born in Canada but spent most of my childhood in Kenya, We moved back to Canada to Calgary when I was 11 years old. Apparently Kenya has changed alot since then. We later moved to Vancouver, I lived there until moving to Sweden in December of 2005.
I love cars, bikes,listening to music and X-Boxing. I am into motorsports and have never been into sports that dont involve any element of speed or danger. Call me crazy, but having grown up in the WRC circuit(my Dad participated in Safari Rally when I was a kid) and participated in some racing myself(Touring Car and Drag) thats just the way I am. I am a technology freak, so I basically love techno toys. I participated in alot of Downhil and XC M'biking but after my car accident in 2000 where I wrecked my right knee, I was unable to do it anymore. My knee is better now and I hope to get back on the saddle again soon :) My downhill beast arrived here this October, but now it's snowing already... LOL! too bad for me, gonna have to get some winter studdies.
I spent alot of time in the rave scene when I was in my late teens and early 20's in Calgary before I moved to BC and I worked for Sublink and House of Unity in their awesome events, I miss you guys! I used to make mix tapes back in the day and started making cd's for people who wanted them, but I am nowhere as good as some of the amazing spinners out there. I am also known as Dj SXB but dont Dj anymore so why bother making a myspace under that name right? Doesnt make sense to me. I worked for club Liquid before they went under and have slowly grown out of the club scene, but maybe I will find some good trance clubs now that I am in Europe. Otherwise I Dj'd for various private parties and events. I enjoyed it very much, unfortunately I sold all my equipment when I moved :( I have also served in the Canadian Armed Forces with the 33rd Field Engineer SQD. My Drill Sgt's last name was Reaper, I kid you not! He was a crazy dood!!!
I moved to Sweden with my Baby Boo. She is originally from here, but I met her in Canada where she was studying. We have been together ever since. We both love dogs, chocolate and trying different kinds of food. We also like watching movies and volunteering for the SPCA.
I am trying hard to find stable work out here, but it's very hard for non-swedish speakers. So I am studying Swedish right now, man that language is confusing. We tried it out in Stockholm for a while but Linda lost her job there due to cutbacks at her work. 230 people unfortunately got axed :( so we had to move back to Östersund where her closest relatives are.
We moved here hoping for a better life, Linda missed her family alot after being away for so long and I moved here with her of course :) I sold everything I had and donated the rest. I gave my bimmer to my parents who needed a car when we moved, as theirs broke down. Hey atleast its still in the family :)

I am playing these PC Games(GTR 2 and Race WTCC) currently
It is simply amazing!!! You gotta have a sweet system to enjoy the full graphics capability of these games, but most systems available today with a decent vid card should be able to play them. I would also recommend you get a steering wheel as well. Enjoy the clips ;)
