2006 - UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURE
20 years ago, before I met Venera, I set off on one of the greatest adventures of my life.
It started in China and continued through Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Nepal, and finally ended in India.
4 months. 7 countries. Countless memories.
Just the other day, my daughter complained:
“Dad, you’re always telling the same stories. Don’t you have any other stories to share?”
I laughed and replied:
“Hmm… Dad has plenty of stories. The problem is that many of them aren’t meant for kids… but one day.” 😉😂
Looking back, those months taught me more about the world—and myself—than I could have imagined. Some memories fade, but adventures like that stay with you forever.

WASHINGTON DC 🇺🇸
I spent my “27th” birthday in Washington DC yesterday. One of my favorite cities.
It’s a big city with a small-town feeling. I parked the car right next to the White House, and you can just walk around the monuments and museums — it almost feels like walking through a giant park.
And honestly, even when I visited DC for the first time in 2009 as a tourist from Sweden, I could feel the American pride and patriotism this city instills. That kind of national pride deserves respect! 🇺🇸
“I LOVE BEING TIRED”
It takes a special kind of personality to say they love being tired after working hard. That’s when they feel most alive.
Meanwhile, my other kid is a professional enjoyer of life… completely allergic to sweat, effort, or anything that contains the word “work.” 😂
What amazes me is this: how can two kids be raised the same way, under the same roof, with the same parents — and still turn out with completely different personalities?
That mystery will never stop fascinating me.
