What is a career, actually? Nobody can destroy my career. Only I can destroy my career, if I am a bad conductor.

I like the close community relations, and to solve problems Picture Quote #1

Everyone in Sweden has great hair and teeth and is clean-cut and organised Picture Quote #1

The holidays are my favorite time of year! Christmas was always one of the biggest celebrations in Sweden, and I look forward to the festivities each year Picture Quote #1

While teaching a course on global development at Uppsala University in Sweden, I realized our students didn’t have a fact-based worldview.
