Who am I? Well, guess you're about to find out...
I'm a Swedish American, born and raised here in Sweden. I'm living in a small community named Sannum that's located approximately 18 miles northeast of Gothenburg.
I'm 36 years old but consider myself young at heart. (Will turn 37 in November.) I started playing the bass when I was 13 and
went on to guitar a couple of years later. After I had been out of playing for almost 10 years,
I started playing the guitar again in 1995. At that time I bought me an Ovation,
(like the one to the left) it's a great guitar that handles like....
well you just have to try one for yourself.
Since I have double citizenship and uses both languages (Swedish / American) I try to visit
one of my favorite places on the net every now and then. It is filled with fun stuff as well
as serious things. Check it out, especially if you know Swedish and English...
KulturChock. Unfortunately
they don't update this site anymore, but it's there for you to see.
I used to live in Alafors but in July 1998 my fiancee Anna
and I moved to Sannum. Sannum is approximately 3 miles further out in the woods from Alafors.
Who's Anna? Well, she's my fiancee. We met in the summer of 1996 at a local party in Nol and we have been
together ever since that first date.
During our vacation this summer we decided to get engaged. As a matter a fact, she got her ring as a surprise
on her birthday! You can see some pictures from the party and more from our vacation if you go to the
Photo Gallery page. As I'm sure you know by now, we are both into computers, when we met Anna wasn't into computers at all, but now she is making
her own web pages and she is also studying to become a Network administrator. Check out her pages by following the link above.
Sannum, Alafors, what kind of places are that? Well, Alafors was originally spelled Ahlafors and it
is included in the county ALE. The community holds
about 850 households and it is a quiet and calm place to live, it only takes some 20 minutes
to get into down town Gothenburg. Close by we have several lakes, creaks and great nature.
Ale is located in along the "Göta Älv" Gota River that connects Gothenburg with the great lake of "Vänern" Vanern.
The area has a very old history and there has been findings far back as to the Viking era in the area.
Unfortunately I don't know enough about it to put correct information on these pages, but if you are
interested I am sure that you can find more about om the "net".
Pictures, I will put some more pictures from my neighborhood and of myself on my photo pages. I will try to add
and update those pages as often as I can.
Some friends have asked me to put a picture of myself in here. Well here's a few pictures.
I'll add a special page with pictures from my travels as soon as possible.
These following pictures were taken during our vacation in California
and the South Western part of the US in Nov-Dec of -97.
The first picture was taken at Laguna beach in "SoCal" (Southern California) Dec, 1997.
After having spent three weeks in Dallas and Phoenix we arrived to LA and the sunny beaches.
One of the first things that we did was to go south to Laguna beach, this is one of the
most beautiful places that I know of.
Yes, I know, there are so many more places to see, but this city got a peace of my heart
the very first time I went there six years ago. (Thank you Herman for showing me.)
