There are chilly days in Taipei, so hiding inside with a huge cup of coffee! We Swedish people love our fika, coffee or tea with good friends and a chat that can last for many hours. When I meet my students or business partners or my film prodcution team, we often meet at a cafe […]
Every time I read that someone loves my country, I feel very happy! What is home? What is your home country? Can we have more than one home country? I love Taiwan so much and love to live here! The people, food, culture…ev everything is almost perfect and I feel both Swedish and Taiwanese at […]
Busy, busy with writing and rewriting our feature Love Ghost. But still have time to do some small acting jobs here and there. Last week, I did a commercial where I was a grandmother eating vitamin pills with my aging husband in the garden. Hm. I wonder if anyone really buys those pills? 🙂 I […]

Is there anything as lovely as Swedish summer? I like my life in Taiwan but when summer comes, I am soooo homesick. Summer is the most beautiful time in Sweden when everything is green and crisp and the nature smells wonderful of grass, trees and flowers. In Sweden, we have five weeks vacation every year […]
