Dreaming of Malibu...



Malibu logo... my new tattoo...


My dream house... Malibu beach...


Today I am obsessed with two things and the common denominator is that both have the name Malibu.

The first Malibu is an incorporated city in western Los Angeles County, California, United States.
A strip of the Pacific coastline; a beachfront community famous for its warm, sandy beaches, and for being the home of countless movie stars and other famous people... Maybe not exactly the place one could easily just move to or even visit for a day... Why I have become so obsessed with this place I do not know. But as long as I can remember I've had this longing of going there and with lots and lots of luck, maybe even live there at some point of my life. If not for a longer period of time, then at least just for a brief moment... I love the ocean and I love the beach and the westcoast... and for me Malibu represents the ultimate beach , the place where you cant get any further before it all starts over again... the final westcoast with its magnificent sunsets...

Now and then I search the internet for beachfront houses in Malibu... That is rental houses.
And there is plenty to choose from. And what amazes me, is that it isn't that expensive as you might think... So with a litle planning and maybe few good friends to join you, it is not that impossible to make this dream come true! Just imagine you and some of your best friends sitting on the porch in the sunset... sipping on a icecold cocktail or beer with nothing else in front of you than the great Pacific ocean... It will not get any better! So what I need to do is gather some good friends, make a plan and start saving some $$... And who knows, maybe this dream isn' that far away after all...

The second Malibu is of a different kind... It is a logo from a famous coconut liqueur... A logo which I've decided to have as my second tattoo... As I am a sucker for palmtrees and beaches as well as sunsets... Also the place Malibu as above... I know there is no better motive...


Until I can make both of these things/dreams happen, I guess I just have to keep on dreaming for a while...

The road to my future...


Hi y'all!

It's been a while since I wrote something here and it's about time to do something about that. As usual I am going to continue to write in English so all of you can join me on my adventures whether you are in Iceland, Sweden or the UK... or anywhere else in the world...

Since august not much has happened at the travelling front. I've been kinda stuck in Malmö trying to do something meaningful with my life...
I've thought many times about packing my backpack and just leave it all once again, but something has kept me from doing so... What it is I'm not sure... Sometimes I just get so tired of thinking about all the things I dream of and all the places I would love to travel to cause I know how hard it really is to get there. There are so many things here at home I'd need to take care of before I could just head off... but on the other side I am not sure if those things are really that important... It's never easy to make a big decision... Once you decide to take that huge step that will change your whole life, maybe not forever (cause I guess nothing lasts forever...) but for some time at least... You need to be able to follow and fulfil what ever it was that you decided... It's very easy to feel secure and safe at home... Even if that home maybe isn't the best place you could think of... You live at some place where the streets and the faces are familar and by time you have gotten to feel that this is the place you belong to, somehow... But what if all that is just some kind of an illusion? Or a fake security... How do you find out if this is really you and if not, then who are you? How do you wake up and how do you move on?

These are the questions I'm struggling with at this point. I feel, that in my heart I belong somewhere else... I know that there must be something more than this everyday routine and that there is some place out there that is more suitable for someone like me... I know there must be a reas
on why I was born with this never ending desire to travel and see the world... And before I've found that perfect place and seen the perfect beach I will not stop being the Vagabond...

So my dear friends and all of you that found this blog, I just want to say..
Thanks for stopping by and hope y'all join me soon again. It feels great to be back!

Please feel free to leave a comment or just a message!

Yours truly!
