About Me





Good sinner, bad saint.

Swedish/Norwegian mutt.

Born in the glorious year of 1981 in Sweden - coincidentally the same year as the biggest coke-whore on earth, Britney Spears - which is a really bad omen for anyone's life. After I was born we moved to Holland where we stayed until I was five. We then moved and settled down in Norway. I spent most of my youth on a small island called Nøtterøy, just outside the old viking town of Tønsberg.

Now I'm working and living in Oslo.

So, that's the reasonably short and boring version of my background. Don't know what else to say, I guess you'll have to ask me if you have any questions ;).

Cheers for stopping by!
