Ekenäs vill inte profiliera sig som “slow” det är helt uppenbart igen i och med initiativet att bjuda in Kesko!
Gamla stan i Ekenäs – vem älskar inte den? Är inte den en av de viktigaste attraktionerna i Ekenäs förutom den fina hamnen och närheten till en rätt oförstörd skärgård? DEN var hotad på 1950-talet och nu 60 år senare är Norra Hamnen och Ekenäs som trevlig småstadshamn hotad i och med Citymarketplanerna som många […]
Idag träffade jag en ung kille i 20-års åldern som söker jobb..
… men han får inget jobb i Raseborg så han åker till Norge (eftersom han VILL jobba). Norge tror jag ser potentialen i denna unga ivriga man och om han bara får en chans tror jag han blir en stor resurs. Någon har sagt att historien upprepar sig. Kjell Westö citerade häromdagen i TV Mark […]
I have a dream – 50 years ago!
Today 50 years ago Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous – maybe one of the most famous speeches ever – I have a dream. Even if his dream partly has become true we see some scary trends today and sometimes it seems as though we are going backwards concerning the issues he worked for […]
RUNDRADION MÅSTE HÄNGA MED I UTVECKLINGEN
Insändare publicerad 23.8 2013 i HBL. Tack Peter Al Fakir (19.8 2013) för din viktiga artikel om ett alltför lite ifrågasatt äktenskap mellan Yle och Evangeliska Lutherska (ev. luth.) kyrkan. Jag har själv påpekat detta vid olika tillfällen tidigare både i Vega och i feedback till Vega. Andaktsprogrammen råkar ofta komma när jag har radion […]
People have the power! Patti Smith and First Aid Kit in Göteborg
It was a unforgettable night at Trägårn in Gothenburg. First we had the pleasure to enjoy the young sisters amazingly mature lyrics and musical talent and then the Rock legend and Lady of Rack Patti Smith! Wow! The song to Edward Snowden was much appreciated.
Bless them with your patience!
This music video was inspired by family videos and photos, the song EmmyLou by the young, brilliant and inspiring women Johanna and Klara Söderström in First Aid Kit and by my creative children. My children’s (and other children’s) astonishing eagerness to learn, their creativity and their joy of learning has been inspiring and is still […]
Coffee rituals essential for a good life!
We have certain rituals when we make our 10 o’clock coffee – which here in the Swedish-Finnish archipelago is called “middle coffee” – and our afternoon coffee. FIKA as it is called in Sweden, which is actually the coffee itself not what you have WITH your coffee as I thought before I heard a radio program […]
Sun energy makes me happy and energetic
Why did I not realize earlier that there are very handy and practical portable sun cell kits? Now when I have tried our new Flexcell sunpack I am in love! It was so easy – just fastened it in a good place on the deck, which was easy since it comes with handy ajustable straps, let […]

Att dela på vad vi har är roligt och viktigt!
Ettt jätte bra program Klotet i Sveriges Radio P1 om att dela på det mesta. Denna vecka om delandets ekonomi på OuiShare Festival: i Frankrike. Varför äga en bil om du kan dela med andra i en bilpool? Varför bo på hotell, om du kan hyra en privat lägenhet mitt i Paris till halva priset? […]
