  • Favourite books/authors/films

    All poetry books by Paul Celan, short stories by Anton Chehov, novels by Pearl S.Buck and Ernest Hemingway
    Myfavourite films are Seven Samurais by Akira Kurosawa, Three colours by Kristof Kieslowsky, The Gospel According to St Mathew by Pierpaolo Pasolini and all movies by Ingmar Bergman and Woody Allen. I also like Quentin Tarantino style action. I find A Single Man with Colin Firth an extremely well made film.

  • A career without obstacles

    I´m happy with my carreer: poet, writer and columnist. Because of my handicap with anxiety it has been perfect for me to work from home. But when I was young I really wanted to become a movie director. I lived at that time in a bigger city and there I was able to follow all the famous movies of that time. It was awesome. Also as a kid I loved to play on my grandfather´s little home organ. I wanted to be a pianist. When I grew up I was sure I would become a professional journalist. So it´s been all about music and writing for me.

  • I'm excited about...

    Music. Classical music. I love all kind of classical music from the baroque to the impressionists. I have a lot of favourite performers. The newest one is pianist Daniil Trifonov. I love good jazz music, too. My favs are Sarah Vaughan and John Pizzarelli. I love Katie Melua, too.

  • Childhood pleasures

    I loved being at our Summer Place and playing with my mini train track.

  • I'm an expert at...

    I´m not an expert on it but I know quite much about WW2.

  • Living abroad for one year

    I would go to the state in USA that fascinates me most: Vermont. The green mountain. The blue state. Bernie Sander´s state. Where Alexander Solsjeitsyn lived in exile. It looks so beautiful.

    Skellefteå (lved there for 1 year), Luleå, Umeå, Piteå, Boden and Haparanda, Sweden

    Politics, love, music, movies, life...

  • Making the world a better place

    This is the most important thing. We need to get rid of poverty, all kind of discrimination and we need to save our planet, because we are destroying it with our greed and careless lifestyle.
