Almost home


Just south of Gothenburg, its been a tiredsome ride in the car. Longing for home

Huge dalahäst


On our way home we stoped to eat in Avesta and since its dalarna they had this gigantic version of a dalahäst

Triumph


Yesterday we were visiting my mothers cousin that collects old cars and mc. This is the youngest a thriumph from -67. Ive been promised a drive with his Matchless from the 1930 when he has fixed it, looking forward to that it was kind of cool. He buys the cars and mc and then fixes them, a hobby that takes up spaces he had alot of garages

Northern citymountain


We have been up on Sundsvalls northern citymountain looking at the view over Sundsvall.

Meeting Tage and his family


There´s just no way I´m visiting Sundsvall without meeting Tage so when he wasnt home we drove a couple of Swedish miles to his sons newely bought house that they are renovating. Since I havent met Tages son befor I just thought this was great, really wanted to meet him too. Tage is my favorit among my mothers uncles. I think he´s the kindest man I´ve ever met in my life and he´s so sympatetic and charming. We havent spent much time together, almost none at all but when I meet him it´s like I´ve known him all my life. He´s 74 years old but that you would never guess, he seems alot younger. I could spend hours and hours just talking and being around him, and boy what stories he has to tell, hes done so much, today he told me about the time when he was puting up tile in the subway in Stockholm when it was built, had no idea he done that. And meeting his son (one of my mothers millions cousins...) was so fun. He was easy to talk to and seemed as interested as I to get to know eachother. The house he and his girlfriend bought is old and comes with a piece of land (dont remeber how much but not to much but not to small either) I took this picture down by the sea (the house is on an island). It´s real calm and quiet here, real peaceful a place I easiely could spend time at. I got an invitation for the summer and when I told him that I plan to arrive on a Harley he suggested I come for midsummer since his and his girlfriends friends would be there celebrating and some of them ride Harley. Thats what I like about my relatives here it´s open hearts and doors and a genuine interest in just being together talking having fun. I like that.

Lilro - where my grandmother grew up


I havent been in Sundsvall in 7 years so today we have visited some relatives and places we wanted to see. This is the house my grandmother grew up in, I havnt been in this house since I was 12. One of my mothers uncles, Tage, and his wife owns it and he´s currently renovating. It´s fun to be back, you see things differently when your older and not 12 anymore :) My grandmother had well not alot but many sibblings but they are getting older and some of them have died so I kind of feel that my source of family history is slipping away. Seeing this house again and talking to my mothers uncles felt important and I got to know some history I didnt know befor, and hear stories from the past that really made me laugh. It´s always been alot of humor and no worries here in Sundsvall and that hasnt changed. I havent spent much time here at all almost none, still being here feels like I´ve come home. It´s a really really weird feeling

Real close up


Timrå - Brynäs in Timrås homearena. Its really really smal and we´re sitting in the front row, if it had´nt been for the plexiglas we would have been able to just reach out and touch the players as they skate by thats how close we´re sitting. It´s quit different seeing hockey this up close and frightening to, you instictivly duck when they shoot pucks at you even though you know that theres a plexiglas protecting you. Boring game... partly because I dont cheer for neighter team and partly because they didnt play well this game. Me and Daniel where looking up at the scoorboard thats shows the scoore from other games such as Frölunda - Modo and we´re happy that Frölunda won their game today.

X-mas song



This is hillarious! I´m not at huge fan of x-mas songs so this really really made me laugh. The song is often credited to Monty Python but after doing some research I found this and noticed it´s an aussie comedian namned Kevin Bloody Wilson that made the song, and he deserves all the credits he can get for this one!

Me and my grandfather


Spending time with my family talking about my grandfathers youth, traveling, motorcycles and my night out. My grandfather is the best ever. He has a huge heart, lots of love and compassion and an open mind. He doesnt hesitate to tell you the truth even if its not what you want to hear but need to hear.

Sunrize


On my way home and everything is calm and quiet (except the soft music Im listening to while walking), kind of nice and a nice ending on a fun night.

After Party Party


Ran into Lina and Vickan at the pub they works at and now its a advanced kind of afterwork at 0420 fun but Im a little bit drunk and should have gone home when my other friends left the pub hours ago. At least I have the good sense not to drink any more, the others are drinking Baileys mixed with milk. yuk yuk yuk yuk!

Samboka on fire


Soo heres the samboka on fire tases like... hmm not something I like... but no wimps here, if someone buys you Samboka you drink, thats the rule soo bottoms up!

Marrige finally


One of my best friends are getting married and Im totaly phsyced! Ingela is one of my closest friends and I know marrige means alot to her, her being religious so when she told me about the marrige we both got a bit teary eyed. I have promised to behave on the wedding.. at least until after the dinner... ;)

Interior design is a subjct that I can spend quit some time talking about, looking at. There´s so much nice cool furnitur and other stuff thats just waiting for me to buy them. Unfortunatly the interior design doesnt come for free... not the one I want anyway... sooo I bought me some lotterytickets, cross your fingers :)

Gävle bocken (gigant christmas he-goat)

In Gävle (a swedish town) its tradition of the town every year to build a gigan christmas he-goat made out of straw. This has created a illegal tradition to try to burn down the goat. Its a war... This year they are confident that it will not be burnt down... Im not sure, they said the same thing last year... I think that you can even bet money on betting saits if and when it will burn...
