About Me

Born and raised in Sweden, now living in New Zealand. Love nature, music, wine, chippies, saunas, running, my husband and my new summer house in the Swedish forest.

My Interests

Walking in the NZ bush, cooking and drinking red wine with my husband, driving around aimlessly, listening to music, grocery shopping, moderate levels if exercise, reading good books, travelling and having a look at the world, swimming in rivers and lakes, spending summer nights getting drunk with my friends... Just getting into gardening & home making as we've just bought out little patch of heaven in the Swedish countryside.

I'd like to meet:

Maxi Jazz, Dalai Lama, Brad Pitt.

Music:

Anything that makes me happy. Most frequently played on my ipod right now: Faithless (always!), LSK, Crowded House, Bic Runga, Laleh, Bob Dylan.

Movies:

Too many to choose from! Anything that is entertaining, beautiful or powerful.

Television:

Whatever is on at 8.30 Mon-Thurs. Unfortunately I got stuck on Lost and now I can't get out!

Books:

"Cat's cradle" by Kurt Vonnergut JR (all time classic), "Time Travellers Wife" by Audrey Niffernegger (wonderfully weird), "Five people you meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom (makes me feel good), "Let me sing you gentle songs" by Linda Olsson (so beautiful it hurts!), "The brothers Lionhart" by Astrid Lindgren (lord of the rings for kids - brilliand), "The beach" by Alex Garland (yes, really)

Heroes:

People who do good things for others. And my big brother.
