@Sweden April 1, 2012 21:12
Just like the world i hope i leave this place better than i found it. Next curator in line is @sakine, make sure to make her feel welcome!
I’m Tomas and I am not only a 24 year old welder looking for a job, but also a fairly bright and nice guy with a big sense of humor. Born and raised in Umeå which is far north enough for actually having four seasons, not like the south of Sweden that only have three! I joke about everything, I’m decent at playing pool, I’m pretty handy and a fairly good chef. I bake bread about twice a week and I grew up with a chef for a mom. I put some of my favourite recipes on a small cooking blog in Swedish at Den Vassaste Kniven. Cooking in English is hard!
I have been on various adventures involving unicycles, fishing boats, fly fishing, back country skiing and tenting on snow, often with a bunch of nice pictures to show, I try to post some of it at På äventyr i livet.
Just like the world i hope i leave this place better than i found it. Next curator in line is @sakine, make sure to make her feel welcome!
I’ll go back to tweeting as @Vassaste_Kniven again and if you want to hear more from me you should follow me there. At least some English!:)
After a nice dinner and a french movie in good company i feel my week as @Sweden is complete. :)
Time for dinner and a movie with my friend! Back for a few tweets later on :) cheers! http://t.co/EPYXngfA
It’s still snowing in Umeå, we have gotten 15-20 cm so far today :) http://t.co/2lTLyO8h

@mahesw @niltiac @osheagreen @swedentwo Yes :P
@Willejms Still worked?
@SimonKberg @dwy But swype is smart enough to understand :)
@texassheriffen Doesnt matter, swype is smart enough to understand :)
I like writing Sötnos (Cutie) with Swype, because you’ll draw a little star while you’re at it :) http://t.co/wX0TF8yi
@KarinLnn @GayTenor @Cantaton @holmgren66 @ypsilon_sophia @camilla_naslund Skicka rekommendation, se hur på http://t.co/IBOb7s8P
@JaapKlaver I’m happy to hear it! Good luck with that :)
Those curious on the climate here in #Umeå here is a graph of the temperarure (°C) durning a year, April to April :) http://t.co/eFC3RO6j
@Annaabell_G Niiice! Good luck :)
@TheEmpressive Yeah we have a quite nice summer for about two months with degrees regularley between 20-30°C :) With looong days! :)
April weather is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.
@TheEmpressive Umeå is the biggest city in the northern half of sweden with about 115000 people :)
@TheEmpressive I do :) Forgot to mention it in my bio on twitter, only in long on http://t.co/gBlSdaLK :)
@PapaPandroni No shit :P
@OsheaGreen Maybe a RT was too cruel :P @SwedenTwo
A friends comming over for dinner, i suppose it might be a good idea to clean up…
Damn! I knew i should have kept my old Nintendo :( http://t.co/If8jeZxK
@emmajeans Hahaha i love that! :D
@ThatGuyOscar Ah thanks, they turned out nicley :)
I have really enjoyed tweeting as @Sweden for the last week, that’s why i have decided to start @SwedenTwo, please follow!
@cutiebee2 Indeed! I can really feel how well they express themselves without understanding the language :)
As i said, it is snowing in Umeå :) Let’s see how long it lasts. :) http://t.co/P6igsPl2
@cutiebee2 I try not to watch anything dubbed, i always prefer the english subtitled versions :)
I was quite happy to find the tracks of a rabbit in the snow yesterday :) (repost) http://t.co/7qYfW4cZ
Winter came back, now we have a few degrees cold and snow is falling. :)
Tea and toast is done, it’s time to enjoy this weeks anime: One Piece episode 541! :)
@C_Mazza I dont think earthour is something to be celebrated :)
Wait now.. did i just brush my teeth for the second time this morning? #focused
@edmoats ? That’s not very nice is it?!
I’m starting to see idiots everywhere.. I’m probably stressed, need to sleep! :) Nighty night wherever you are :)
@MarialaniMaria It was about the name in swedish?
@MarialaniMaria 1 hour is 0.14% of a month, Doesn’t matter how many people there are, that is still the same.
@mandamaladroit I save whats left to the next day in the fridge, the wait makes it even better :)
@pink_l0la no, but quite rude and bad journalism..
@c_anna_da yeah.. Soo lazy.. :(
@c_anna_da yeah.. So rude :(
The frustration when a newspaper posts name and picture on their site without asking… Whats up with that?
@carolynUK I do :) why do you ask? :)
@kimledin no, I only drink beer ;)
@kimledin nono, how much do you bet? Yout lifesavings? ;)
@carolynUK yes, but you cant apply statistics to a individual :)
@kimledin how much? ;)
@OHWOWSOCOOL I leave that to those who knows how. :)
@kimledin maybe the search for perfection and enjoyment is similar between the three :)
It’s not that I don’t like having fun, just that i’m coughing too much to want to be social.. At least I got you :)
Being able to dimm down the display on a stereo is such a nice feature when watching a movie in the dark. :)
@tim_whatley Hi Tim, I live about seven hours drive from stockholm and don’t have any better idea on the matter than you do :) Sorry
@NelsonBonner It’s LED, 225 of them at 14W in total, red and blue.. :)
@NelsonBonner They are made for it and they work, bough it for $30 on ebay :)
@chrismada9 Yeah, it can be faster.. But the thing is once you learn it it gets much more fun. But trying for a little while is fun to! :)
@suklaamumina I’ve have an ultimatewheel, it’s quite hard i can tell you that! ^^
@chrismada9 You can generally learn to ride somewhat stright and get up freely in ~10 hours training, then loads of options opens! :)
@NelsonBonner Yeah, the table is only 90cm high, I’ll move it all to a wardrobe soon i think! :D Led grow light from ebay! :)
Not that i can’t ride a unicycle, just that it was hard without pedals. :) #wheelwalk
@NelsonBonner Yeah, no good windows and short days :)
@chrismada9 People who says it’s hard probably havent learned to ride? :) Just like riding a bike its hard before you know it :)
Huu i think the tired squeeked a bit too much.. Maybe tomorrow! ;)
@PAkerstrand @ronindotca Houses in Umeå seem to cost about 3-4 million Sek. :) “cheap”
@PAkerstrand @ronindotca I think it varies among the houses. And i’m not sure the houses are “cheap”
@AdrianaNSC Only the recepie, in swedish ;) http://t.co/X51Nwhiy
@kattisastrom Receptet finns på export iaf! :) http://t.co/Lhsij9yT
Tweeting in the dark.
@christopherlutz One more day! :) 24 more hours of fun! :D
@jerkernilsson74 There would be an outrage.. People couldn’t tweet about #earthhour in the dark! ;)
@jdskog Whoever is in charge? The internet doesn’t run itself.
@alanlaw But they are all connected! :) Of course it’s possible. Not shut down everything, just www!
I wonder what would happen if they killed the internet during #EartHour
@redheadedgirl You are very much welcome :)
Tonights dinner, along with a good beer or two.. Happy saturday to my friends all over the world! :) http://t.co/Giv2TKhc
@_viouslymaggie Np! :D
Just though i’d show you my pizza dough.. http://t.co/W8QRx8p1
If i bake my pizza instead of buying one I’m saving enough money for one beer in a bar or three at home! :) #beercurrency
@smurfatik There is less iron in spinach than in meat, does the same apply there?
@K4tyS The PR-people have tried to get many dishes to be a friday tradition, before it was chichen! ;) And this doesnt affect all swedes :P
When storing food, don’t use aluminium foil on stainless steel, this might cause the aluminum to decay and discolor the content. :)
@CodingInsomnia Haha ;) Do as you wish, it’s a classic recepie and i think you should try it before you change it, that’s all :)
@ivaluconnects I tried to give a proper picture of it, not to bash it. Do you diagree?
@SarahHorvat Thanks, I appreciate it :)
@Eklandisk Haha ^^
@ivaluconnects It was a joke, just removed it cos people wont understand it ^^
You can store dough in your fridge for a day or two, but make sure to use a proper lid to avoid disaster! ^^ http://t.co/52DRa4Ju
@steeljaw Earthhour is the joke of the day! ;)
@SirPrankmonkey You seem to have missed out on my quite nice long walk to a cozy winter forrest! Check recent pictures :)
@SDAWP_Janet Thanks, I’m glad to hear it :) @Vassaste_kniven
Tomorrow is my last day as @Sweden, I’ll be back to @Vassaste_kniven after that, I’ll make sure to write interesting tweets in english :)
@OliviaSolman What makes you think i’m not telling the truth? :) Why would i lie? :)
@Rosberg I think you understand what i’m saying. :) @LillemorSR
@OliviaSolman Are you saying that swedes don’t disagree on this?
@ivaluconnects I don’t like valentines day either, i love all year long :)
@glburning Yes, but a lot of people seems to think earthhour saves electricity.
@LillemorSR Maybe, poeople in Umeå also has way less dialect than in both Skellefteå and Övik :)
@LillemorSR Exactly, but so many people view it as right and wrong.. Like that we all should speak rikssvenska.
@LillemorSR I prefer to view it as part of our culture and dialects rather than an issue! :) No correct answer!
@johanjortso @sierrakim Also: Google translate translates “3 dl” to “3 cups”. Another reason to use grams in recepies! :)
@johanjortso @sierrakim And if you don’t specify the amount of flour it’s easy to take more flour than needed instead of kneading!
@johanjortso @sierrakim And writing recepies on my blog i want to give those who try them the best chance possible, hence grams! :)
@johanjortso @sierrakim And writing recepies on my blog i want to give those who try them the best chance possible, hence grams! :)
@johanjortso @sierrakim Oh yes, and baking bread has soooooo much tradition. Dont underestimate the skill of a baker :)
@LillemorSR Not really, but we got to keep in mind that twitter doesn’t include all of sweden :)
@johanjortso @sierrakim Which in turn is key if you exchange one flour to another, it’s the weight that matters, not the volume..
@johanjortso 60g wheat flour = 1 dl :) Varies with different kinds of flour though :) @sierrakim
@johanjortso @sierrakim Of course a lot of things changes the result when baking, like humidity and airpressure..
@sierrakim @johanjortso Yeah, exact measurements are pretty key to be able to reproduce the result, and that’s what recepies are about :)
@sierrakim @johanjortso Wonderful :)
@chrismada9 @johanjortso Anyone can drop recommendations at http://t.co/IBOb7s8P not for yourself though :)
@johanjortso i have written a bunch of recepies, you can’t ask someone not used to baking to go by feeling. :) @sierrakim
@johanjortso Nope, but mine is ~10 years old, got it used from my uncle :)
@johanjortso I do, and it makes quite the difference if you bake something where it matters, like bread. Volume can be +-10% :) @sierrakim
@johanjortso That’s not really true, measuring by weight is much better generally! :) I just took recepie from Vår Kok Bok! :) @sierrakim
@johanjortso Ah yes they’re lovley. It’s lagom for everything except heavy rain! :) I do recommend it :)
@sierrakim Yay! :D
@sierrakim Sounds nice! :)
@johanjortso I think pannkakor is closer to the heart of swedes :)
@borntorun07 People disagree, i just laugh! :)
@sierrakim Cos i read a classic recepie! :) Also.. i dont think pancakes are a good dinner :P Rather dessert or fika! :)
@zombiekitty78 Nope. But usualy eaten with jam and such.. but also used for crepes! :)
@obeka Småplättar! :)
A classic recepie for our pancakes is 3dl(1.25 cups) flour, pinch of salt, 6dl (2.5cups) milk, 3 eggs and 25g butter. :)
@sierrakim it’s not that hard to make! :)
@YvonneIrving Strawberry, homemade :)
Many swedes are tweeting me about pancakes and what they’re called. They don’t agree with each other. :) #whoknew
@BrdNrd Stadsliden :)
@simonbertilsson Saying swedes don’t disagree on this is a lie. :)
@AgnetaHolmstrom The thing is that awareness isn’t what’s gonna help us, it’s actions. :)
I however like that people have different dialects and I don’t think there is a correct answer. :)
I made pancakes! Named either Plättar or Pannkakor in swedish, the swedes disagree! #controversy http://t.co/g5tY28xu
@SuperNerdMe We dont need something that “symbolizes”, we need a sustainable sollution. :)
Maybe you can work in #thatswhatsheepsaid in a conversation if someone says anything.. stupid? :D I dont think the sheep will mind.
@EmmaAntonsson Love it! :D
@BordeKock And who buys the crap that the companies produce?
I’m not saying #EarthHour is bad, just that the rest 99.86% of the month is more important. :)
@_maladroit This hour is 0.017% (hundreds) of the month, you won’t notice it. :)
@_maladroit That is NOTHING when you look at how much electricity we spend in total. :)
@NoraLindkvist And i’m not saying it’s bad, just that it’s missunderstood :)
@NoraLindkvist We don’t know if it raises awareness or not, hence we don’t know if it saves electricity or not. More like a pat on the back
I think #EarthHour is somewhat misunderstood. It may raise awareness, but it doesn’t save any substantial amount of electricity.
@johanjortso @chrismada9 Exactly! Has to be hard to express yourself with so few vowels..
@tenfootfangs Thanks! :)
@BigAl1967 I think it’s more kvack :) Why i don’t know, cos they dont!
@dandyli0n I’d say the freedom to do as we want, and the security we have if things go wrong. :) Not perfect though!
@justDoji Thanks ;) @maigrueen
If they do.. Who are we to call sheep stupid? :)
If a swedish sheep crossed the world to new zeeland… Would it understand the local sheep there?
Swedish sheep say ‘Bää’ , what does the sheep in your country say? #thatswhatsheepsaid
The local tiny skiing slope bräntberget.. 3 km from downtown. 4 much bigger better slopes within an hours drive :) http://t.co/cUtCryGb
People come to the forest to have fun.. But we only visit those who live here :) http://t.co/kAstpHUF
There we go :) some have the guts to enjoy winter while they can! http://t.co/CXOBHZjj
Bit more than 30 cm.. At least knee-high.. No, it wasnt a mistake ;) http://t.co/J57vfTHJ
Skitracks still open, lets wait for a skier! http://t.co/VW85EOBw
@katsry @michiexile we didn’t disagree?
Only about 30 cm of snow left :) and youre not supposed to walk on the skitracks, it ruins them :) http://t.co/Mxoy5POp
I met a dog.. He didn’t really notice me.. didn’t seem to notice his owner shouting either.. (skitracks) http://t.co/QlloHafG
Nice weather for a walk in a cozy winter forest :) http://t.co/TWufLy4M
@ronindotca scarpa gtx boots of some sort :)
The appletrees actually survive the winters here in #umeå :) not too many other fruit trees though. http://t.co/1OOI2l7C
My shell-pants have built in gaiters.. Quite handy not get snow in your shoes :) this isn’t ‘common’ , it’s awsome! http://t.co/BNJM4PVO
I’m putting my trust into the cold night and am headed for a walk through a old forrest. If it was “warm” the snow would be too soft! :)
@ellenjorgensen Should be a price down to the right. And yes they’re quite expensive. Check the sale! :)
@trumfkort Oh yes i am, you should know!
@Aussie__Chick Sweden isn’t a place it’s a whole country! We have lots of weather at the same time :P
And yes.. i dared to put the scissor in a $300 jacket. :) I like sewing! Borrowed my moms sewing machine :) http://t.co/WYzRcjPo
The jacket is an old “Mithril” jacket from the Swedish brand Klättermusen, i absolutley love it. Their website -> http://t.co/jDua9P4D
This is the jacket I’m usually using.. It was more of a sweater before but i put on a longer zipper few weeks back :) http://t.co/FERUZNFO
@Aussie__Chick No?
@najza Something like start in december and some piles left inte beginning of may :)
To crush my point completely it’s -0.5°C. But at least the sun is shining!
In everyday conversations here, we say 2°C as “2° varmt” Varmt = warm, -2°C as “2° kallt” kallt = cold.. #perspective #norrland
Maybe you get a different relation to the sun when the summer only is ~2 months long.
My toast jumped from the toaster all the way down to the floor.. Maybe i should stay inside today, although the sun is shining.
I wanted to go skiing today, coughing a bit too much to ride #telemark though..
It was deemed to be one of the 100 funniest moments in swedish history when the integration minister said something like that in 1992..
I just put in my new pirate battery.. Now i want us all to join hands and sing “We shall overcome”
@TwitSchtef Mybe that isn’t proper candy or cookies either? :) I’m not saying we should ban it, I’m saying we shouldn’t need to lean on it
@FizaIsa awwwww ;)
@FizaIsa classic pizza with ham n mushroom
@FizaIsa I have nobody to look after my bedtime for me, except for you ;)

@FizaIsa I made a pizza earlier tonight :)

@EnviableEla @namewithanumber there is a local dish that’s a pizza rolled with salad, tomatoes, onion and sauce here in umea.. Rullpizza!
@krabbe @ailbhe cant read oiriginal answer? Of course people can eat whatever they want, I just think it’s sad, thats all.
@rolfblidborg Du får avfölja så mycket du vill, trevlig kväll :)
@StuartyPhilpott No, i don’t think that’s it :) Rather lazyness!
@SarahKarlsson Luckily i’ve gotten a few proposals that might give me a safe haven for a while :)
I’m sad about the fact that tacos in sweden has come to the point where you open a bunch of cans & pouches and still call it homemade.
@MadonnaSweden I’m not too sure. I just think a good friday-dinner should be homemade and not pre manufactered good :)
@martiniholma Härligt! Är det full sässong såhär års? Dra en fin tweet på engelska så retweetar jag! ;)
I’d probably be deported from sweden if i made my thoughts on Taco-friday heard.. ;)
@cutiebee2 Awww :D Late night? ^^
@TedKT Niiice propaganda bro! ;)
@chaotickat There are classic pizzas with tuna like “al tono” :) But i think the tuna is better if it’s on top! :)

@jameslosey The bikelanes here are quite well plowed and it’s quite possible to bike all year round. So it’s a good thing they aren’t :)
@GustavErikson Mindboggling isn’t it? ^^ @agneshedberg
@jameslosey No, snowmobiles are only allowed to travel in terrain, with lots of restriction in most places :)
@tvman12 Hahaha i love it :D
@TantSprit That doesn’t change what’s in the bag does it? ;)
These leaves are grown on the southern slopes of Himalaya & transported across the world so i can have my cup of Darjeeling tea :)
@TantSprit No. :)
@TwitSchtef Yes but adding glutamic acid to food and calling it good isn’t proper cooking.
@cutiebee2 Well yeah it’s usualy expressed as 8.9/hg instead of 89/kg :)
@FizaIsa Aww :) they’re pretty good :) Have you even been in sweden? :)
@OneandonlyHelen I support you! ;)
@Idabitar Försök igen.. :)

I bet that snot they eat in (or rather outside) the Matrix is flavoured with MSG. ;)
I don’t think Glutamic acid (MSG) belong in proper food, It’s a synthetic way to good taste that makes everything taste the same.
@TantSprit @herclarity I know.
@hildgrim That’s in aromat, but it’s also a synthetic way to good taste, i doni’t like it.
@hildgrim What? why acronym?
@annefgreaves Yeah, tarragon in english :)
@herclarity I don’t use it that much, i promise :)

In the swedish mountains the water is so fresh & clean you can drink from almost any stream you find. No need to carry water or filters :)
@mikagora thats bs! @svenskakyrkan stop sending me spira!

@FizaIsa Ohno, this was way before that princess. And princesstårta is a classic.
The princesstårta (cake) was just for fun after night 5 days on our 8 day tour! Never had warmer than -15°C ;) Campsite http://t.co/7nONfKh9
@FizaIsa No! :D Just fo funzies
@antonbjones Glad to hear it :)
Bedtime! As usual I’ll be watching starcraft at http://t.co/oMEp4hhc with @gosudoa and @catspajamassc2 casting :)
Best breakfast ever. :) Quite the feat to make this after sleeping in tent in -35°C, isn’t it? :) http://t.co/ZN9UdbY1
@spritesbites Thanks :)
This is from another trip through the swedish mountains way above the treeline. Me in green :) http://t.co/g38OHFaX
@aniasroka We still have snow, allthough the pics are from last winter :)
I posted a little story in swedish and some pics from the trip with the last winter pics at http://t.co/tgPw7o8M :)
@emmationell typ 20 km från Åre! Tro det eller ej :) Vid bunnerfjällen
@jerkernilsson74 Tack! :)
@wendydcs_ There are risks involved, you need the right gear and to know what you’re doing :)
I shot a quite nice actionphoto the next day :) #telemark http://t.co/ANscDoZF
I love tenting in the winter in the wild, it’s beautiful.. :) http://t.co/E9wFDWsO
@jerkernilsson74 Hoho, var du först ut? :) Var väl lammbilderna som gjorde mycket va? :)
@jerkernilsson74 Nono, fresh water only. :)
@chrismada9 Nonono, it¨s fresh water in a natural little fountain :)
@fabianbom Yeah, a small natural fountain :)
@fabianbom No!
@AnnieFairfoul Nope :)

@RyanMakipour Norrlands Guld a quite popular lager that’s not very good. And yeah they had quite funny ads :)
@vileIllusion I’ll try to watch next time, then i’ll come with feedback! :)
@RyanMakipour I’m glad to hear it :) Thanks
@gbibliophile Happy to help! :)
@takeshita_kenji i think that’s included in “cold water”…
Water transfers heat 20 times better than air, which means cooling a beer in cold water is much faster than in the freezer.
Fika on wikipedia! :) http://t.co/iXRibgoe
I love these cows! Strange strange cows :) http://t.co/9tI2Hzcm
@VangelisD1 Good luck with that. feel free to ask :)
@jensmedgaffeln Oooh it all makes sence now! :)
@VangelisD1 Oh, probably this one :) http://t.co/tKea7ko5 recepie in swedish -> http://t.co/tKea7ko5
@jensmedgaffeln I dont know! :(
@DoyonMalin @kymtje And have less blood volume because women generallt weight less than men. Hence greater % lost :)
You mean #kanelbullar? http://t.co/Y2XJvJ6c http://t.co/Y2XJvJ6c RT @VangelisD1 hey! I need the recipe for the bread you made 2 days ago.
@kymtje Ah ok, i don’t think it’s cos they think ill of women in any way. :) I have donated platelets ~20 times :)
Shoot a screenshot at desired dificulty from a movie, attatch to a tweet, hashtag #namethemovie and challenge your followers ;)
@jamespage79 It wasnt what i felt like :)
Correct! And so fast, in under a minute. Was this a good game? :P #namethemovie RT @noisyb kings speech
I switched movie.. Guess which one! :) #namethemovie http://t.co/EmXibVes
@valeskocracy as i said, there is no such thing as i e-penis, it was a joke.
@mikjon Maybe i’ll go with something else :P
Time to stop powertweeting and watch a movie instead ;) I’ll be watching Catfish http://t.co/KEEvXe0I on 92″ :) http://t.co/KEEvXe0I
@tylikcat Different rules, same bodies.. strange stuff :)
@intermanaut It says umeå is “far north enough”, don’t missquote. Enjoy your skiing. :)
@carolynUK Aww, that sounds xtra sad with that sad kitty.. Allthough no, i want someone new to become a blood donor :)
@angusprune They are getting rid of that rule, a few persist though.
@CarroBq Jag tog den från http://t.co/u4V4Mb9w påstod inget annat.
@discoprincess I didn’t make the rules.. i think it has to do with women having less blood, their period and so on.. :)
@CarroBq you do the math som sagt :P
That big and calm type of snowflake that slowly falls to the ground.. Quite nice :) In #Umeå! :)
It’s snowing. :)
@bananajambo I think it has to do with women having less blood, their period and lower hemoglobin. :)
52 blood donations per 1000 swedes each year, men can donate 4 times a year, women 3.. You do the math.. #geblod
@bowiebookgirl Nice! :)
@sippan You either donate blood or you don’t, sadly i dont make the rules.. :)
@Fraidsson Maybe she should write a recommendation for you at http://t.co/gBlSdaLK? ;)
@daviddeckhim Aww that’s too bad :( They are just getting rid of that strange rule in sweden, allthough some persist. Mind if i RT?
@cutiebee2 Sorry no, want to be recruiting someone :P
You can’t be a blood donor from before, i want some kind of proof and I’ll be chosing someone on random :)
@debzbowers I’m sorry no, i want to be recruiting someone :)
I’m willing to crochet a heart like this one and send it to someone on twitter that donates blood for first time. :) http://t.co/mWMufkSt
@cutiebee2 Dont forget your yeast and give it time to rise! :)
@ellenjorgensen grrrrrrrr!
@cutiebee2 haha thanks :) it’s not hard at all :) I doubt that will happen ;)
@CheleNik I doubt it :)
@DrWadata hi :)
@CheleNik nice! It’s in swedish and is available to order on http://t.co/9cc7Om1K :)
@weselle not really no, I don’t think so. not sure though. Mostly mountainrelated stuff :) brant.se
I got one of my favourite magazines today.. It’s simply called Brant, which means steep. It’s all about climbing up and skiing down!
This 8 minute video taught me a lot on how to shape bread :) http://t.co/q8aaIifJ
@gunnarssonhanna Thanks :)
Here’s a collage on how i made todays bread.. I’ll probably write a recepie later tonight. :) http://t.co/rO82SyNd
@jarek_pawel Are you tweeting this over and over again? :) You can’t have a @ mention in the beginning, that sends it to me! :)
@lucho870601 Why don’t you check my bio and the website instead of asking? :)
@MalinSusanna I have a bunch of pictures at least, not sure yet :)
@Caneedan Hahaha ^^
I’m asked for an interview.. then time to compile the photos of baking my bread :)
@paulmorrey78 If you’re a member of church you pay like ~2% of your salary to the church, If not you don’t. hence it’s not a tax.
@roboseyo Haha, so frustrating getting hundreds of “It’s spelled…” :) But i don’t mean to whine :)
I giggle every time someone goes “you’re wrong, i checked wikipedia” without knowing what they’re talking about :)
@paulmorrey78 Church and state are separated since a few years back, taxes don’t fund the church. Check your facts. :)
@PocketaPocketa I started mine with grated apple, pretty effective!
@pellet Levain is a type of sourdough.
@cutiebee2 Oh that’s looking quite nice :)
@jarek_pawel that’s a typo, thats different :)
Sour dough has a bacteria culture (just like there is one in yogurt) that changes both the taste, the pH and chemistry of the bread :)
@ChefyStephie Yeah, i have like 50 grams of sourdough. Add 150g water, 150g fluor, let rest for 4 hours, take 300g and keep rest in fridge:)
@beanobundle Awww ^^
@cutiebee2 That’s too bad.. I’ll try to post a recepie later on :)
@pygmemo Thanks! They are! :)
@SwedishMomMuses Haha nah, i’m an amateur.. Don’t underestimate the skill of a baker :)
@pannonicaUK Way ahead of you! http://t.co/OeJ3BpU5
@ireland Unfortunatley i didn’t :P
And yes, i know i missepelled loaves >_<
Todays bread :) Two loafes baked with sourdough and 25% flour made from roasted oatmeal.. Sooo good! <3 http://t.co/BZrp5KA8
@jarek_pawel But i leave the dough to rise over the night in the fridge, that’s why it took so long :)
@SaraFlagge Same to you, good luck with that, feel free to ask away, i’ll try to answer :)
I never feel as rich as i do when i take a steaming hot bread out of the oven. :)
@PlakatSe Tack för choklad och pratstund! Supertrevligt! @DanielNordstrom @mikael108
@FizaIsa Fact. :) I try not to guess on stuff i say :) google your heart out :)
@FizaIsa Yeah, that kids can play with whatever toys they like. :) @annalog
@annelieh Oh yes :)
The baking stone is ceramic, you can see i use a stainless tray in the bottom with water to add moisture when i bake :) To let it rise more!
@annelieh It’s not wood it’s ceramic, it’s to make the baking more efficient and get a better result :)
@andreaspalmen Haha thanks’s it’s cracked but still works :) I’ve done this before ^^
@niltiac Do you not agree with that sweden is one of the least religious countries in the world?
@EvaLisaS I think i am the one to decide that, not them. @Svenskakyrkan
Allways scary to cut the dough and put it in the oven, it kinda looks sad. Let’s hope. :) http://t.co/wXiIgK7v
@niltiac Why do you think I was talking about australia? :(
@Immuno_geek Yeah, that looks sooooo strange from my point of view, it’s scary! propaganda. :(
@niltiac i didn’t mean to offend anyone, i was talking about sweden not all other countries.
@niltiac ehm, one of the least obviously, lol :)
@niltiac Well then just google your heart out. :) And i said “one of the most” :)
@niltiac I bet, but i have more sources on this, it’s about how much religion views affects a society, don’t remember the source though.
@niltiac “Belonging” to a church does not mean you’re religious. Believing in god or a higher being does. :) http://t.co/qHNSJM0z
@pontusw But at least people are upset about that! :)
@internuts Mm, tänkte försöka nyttja min ställning för att ändra på det! lol
@princeword yeah, but lets try not to state a religious riot on twitter :P
Sweden is one of the least religious countries in the world. I can’t even imagine a succesful swedish politician mentioning god, ever. :)
@lingonte So is the extrapriser at my supermarket? @Svenskakyrkan
@wennborg It’s not.
The Swedish Church @Svenskakyrkan are one of the few that ignores the “no ads please” on my mailbox. Why?!
@henriquefb4 Maybe thats why norrland is better!
@schalkburger Because they rank highest on ladder? lol. Try looking as results from tournaments. :)
@schalkburger note the “probably”, beause this is a matter of opinion.
@DPontes_ Definitely! :)
@schalkburger I know what sc2ranke are, what are you trying to say?
@justDoji Hahahaha! :D I’m not sure he has the time. :P @QuanticNani
Even though Korea is the dominant country in #Starcraft2, Sweden is probably in second place :)

I don’t get any unadressed ads in my mailbox cos of my “Ingen reklam tack” (no ads please) on it.. I read some of them online instead.

I believe this swedish toy ad is trying to say something. :) (Via @annalog ) http://t.co/900ruXsm
@PlakatSe Absolut! :) Ser fram mot det.
@PlakatSe Hej! Blir lite stressigt, I eftermiddag kanske?
@FizaIsa thanks ;) ehm..drugs, smoke, coffee.. Neither do I sing when anybody is around :)

@SarahHorvat Nono, saffron buns is something we make for the Saint Lucia on 13th december. :) I’ll get to that tomorrow maybe ^^
@SarahHorvat I’m glad to hear it. :) I eat quite a lot of bread and i bake what i eat basicly :) No saffron yesterday! Butter n cardamom!
I actually bent the tubing for the rack on my bike in my apartment :) http://t.co/i2nsqQaJ
@Lokar I’m glad to hear it! :) Thanks :)
@Britt_W Thanks, glad to hear it :)
@slidingintoold Bam! :D nice :)
@rmgbi It was included in the basket, intended for serving eggs. $5! :) Works flawlessly :)
@mimbles The ones made for bread are quite expensive, these were 29 kr ($5).. made for eggs for easter! :) Works fine :)
@HootenHaller Well if you use cooked potatoes and carrots it’s much faster, i prefer raw, takes about 30 minutes :)
And you use support support on the side when rising bread to let it rise higher, not wider. Flip over to baking tray when it’s ready :)
The baskets i use for rising dough in were made for eggs. Super cheap and works well! Maybe availible for easter? http://t.co/JJAJgjMm

@missmilla2u Ah ok, happy to hear it :) Hard to tell in text, and some people do complain :)
@Kiint I have tried baking with levain a few times but it’s hard to get it right, i use a little yeast, 4 grams fresh yeast for 2 loafs :)
@chetouanea No, videos are so much worse to make :)
@SuperJohanness I know! Such a nice compliment, all of it! :)
I’m preparing to show you how easy it is to bake with sourdough. :)
@missmilla2u Let’s not make this a gender thing, it’s only for mocking people who think they’re cool on the internet :)

@SwedishOkie You seem pretty american using that much abbrevations! ;)
@Kiint I guess, but it’s not like norrland in sweden is that overpopulated either :) And the small villages have the BEST internet! :D
@Ardeyargull It’s not about gender :)
I trust that all of you know that the speed of your internet important for the size of your e-penis.
@ivaluconnects Hahahahha nice! :D or i mean.. Poor guy!
I think it’s only some cheap deals on wireless internet that has a limited download in sweden. :)
I hope that’s not too many RTs :) I have 100/10mbit for 320kr ($50), which isn’t even that cheap here. :)
Poor guy! :( RT @TheBoothy 0.4Mbps download, in the UK, £30 a month :(
How much do you pay for your internet access, how fast is it and where do you live? :)
@Saralaise Yeah, it cooks from the heat from the food when you stir it, turns out really nice and creamy! :)

@craftgasm Good. :) It’s hard enough trying to write something interesting in 140 letters. :)
@christopherlutz No i bought it on ebay. $30 :)
@craftgasm Also i dont appreciate people complaining about my english, it’s not very nice.
@craftgasm This time of year IS nine months after midsommar.
@louesejackson Yeah, it works really well! Especially up here with short days, also none of my windows are well placed for it :)

@shanda1701 I also clearly said that the picture was 5 years old. :)
@shanda1701 Laws differ between countries, that’s not breaking news it? :) Sure helmets are good, i know.
@shanda1701 First of all, a unicycle isn’t a bike. Second there are helmet laws for those under 15 years of age. :)
@shanda1701 Wearing a helmet or not is my choice alone.

@so_phies Too bad :/ Have you attended any couchsurfing events? That’s a pretty good way to get to know couchsurfing :)
@so_phies Sounds rather like a non-experience than a poor one :) Make sure to have a good profile, nice pictures, write personal requests :)
@alexlnixon1 I didn’t say it was! :)
I’ve couchsurfed in Stuttgart, München (Germany) & Brig (South Swizerland) RT @cutiebee2 Where did you couchsurfed?
@katsry No, that’s not what @couchsurfing is about. At all!
But @Couchsurfing is not only for when you travel, also a good way to find new friends. I was at a potluck party last friday. :)
I’ve been on @Couchsurfing for a few years, Surfed ~12 nights, Hosted ~15. If you’re in the neighbourhood, send a request :)
Looking back, it’s the places where i couchsurfed i remember the most, and that is why i recommend @Couchsurfing :) http://t.co/CZmHvRXD
Couple of years back i spent 5 weeks traveling to Amalfi in Italy and back again, couchsurfed about half the time, more fun that way! :)
Couchsurfing is like finding friends you don’t yet know, to have a home away from home instead of some hostel :) http://t.co/1SsIeAii <3
If someone asks me how they can get a genuine experience when traveling, i allways answer @Couchsurfing, the best way to travel!
@takayamamakoto no? The video is made for the language, and the original voices are SO MUCH better than foreign crap :)
@Blommisen Not really, we have a third language in school but i didn’t pay enough attention to remember any :)
@emmelihultqvist But so does the people in stockholm.. :P
Not many movies, but i like anime! One Piece! <3 @mSKRDK U watch japanese movies?? :D sweet :D
I met a woman in Swizerland once who spoke “italian, french, portugese, spanish. german, no english” :) Still got my icecream! <3
@clacke @ungeherrlarsson I don’t think there is a market for movies dubbed to swedish, and that’s not cos we’re too few. :)
@popkewitz Yay! :)
Maybe that’s why? RT @iciousicious Here in Spain they dub everything, that’s probably because overall the english level is not so good..
@Tomskini I didn’t say it was a language, i said i don’t understand it very well, sometimes :)
My bank called asking me asking if i wanted an insurrance thay pays up to 1000000 kr if i get hurt, i asked for it in print, she said no.
I allways prefer watching movies in ther original language, if I dont understand (french, japanese and scottish) i use subtitles!
@TheManko Well.. i’ve “heard” but not udnerstood many crappy dubbing in several languages :P
Do they dub tv and movies where you live? The only thing the dub here are tv and movies for kids, i hope. I think dubbing is horrible.
Many complaints on minor faults like spelling. Let me remind you that there are countries where English simply isn’t viable.. :)
@vencut2 I don’t think a majority of swede speaks “uk english”, but most of the english shows on tv are from Usa, maybe that’s why. :)
@KingTutsWWH Well.. i guess i’m sorry.
Foreigners who have been in Sweden! Are swedes as good in english as they proud themselves to be? Any funny stories? :D
@FruSenap yeah useful sometimes, have to switch back and forth.. Lucky there are good apps for that :)
@shanda1701 not much for that kind of game, I prefer starcraft :)
@edujohn there is a bunch of nice swedish craftbeer :) also try the very swedish kebabpizza!
I just hate the ‘automatic rotation’ of the screen on phones.. I disable it all the time to be able to tweet lying on my side :)
@MasterZap actually no, have been stuck inside sick way too much to have the chance.
@LucerneBelle homemade liquor is not so common but maybe so more in other groups than others. :) also illegal..
@FruSenap happy to hear it :)
@svknco I was, wish I could do out again, it’s a good job! I’m not that nerdy but muddlers worked so well last year, lemming year :)
@KitchenSweetie aww that’s so nice, I appreciate it a lot :)
@milkkore uh? Im single.. am I the socialist or the husband?

Bringing starcraft to bed with @gosudoa and @catspajamassc2 at http://t.co/syvLxE3n
Bedtime. Take care wherever you are! :)
@danfast I’m not saying spiral isnt used for helix. Just saying its not.. Correct :)
@Helyxcious is that so? U sure? :)
@badcushion Np! It was quite fun considering all the feedback, and they’re soo good! Good luck :)
@LuckyBiiitch Hej! http://t.co/QqhyepRg är bra för att boka boende.. Om du aldrig testat @couchsurfing :)
@amandamuses No, but iy’s pretty cheap to have a powdercoater fix it atually, and the result is soo good :)
@Huskystarcraft Ping on my last tweet ;) http://t.co/loodnglY Cos i’m nerdy and i know it!
@namewithanumber Brushing teeth, some foam on my hands, then rub tired eyes.. Bam!
That’s ok. Cos I’m nerdy and i know it. http://t.co/siv79Pfg RT @ChefyStephie Be careful, your “nerd” is showing lol O_o
@danfast quoting wikipedia are we? ;)
Why is it called a ‘spiral staircase’? Its not spiral at all, it’s a helix :)
@ErdsJane i giggle cos pulla is something else in swedish ;)
@Sandra_MariaS aww :)
Fika, gofika, kvällsfika..call it whatever you want :) http://t.co/8qkm2Egi
@indigocat there is so much more than welding you need to build something like that :)
I dont only miss my timeline but also the fluffy clouds that’s my background for @vassaste_kniven on http://t.co/uQiWAyiw :)
@PacketNetworks nah, I just feel it’s so close each time I brush my teeth!
When it’s cold enough F and C are the same.. At about -39°! That’s cold.. I promise :)
One of my biggest fears is to get toothpaste in my eyes!
Yes, those are flowers on my bedroom wall..
You can create many things from steel. I had some time to spare at work, i made headboards for my bed :) #welder http://t.co/n0Vzj4H1
@holahuracan I’m happy to hear it! :)
Time to relax on the couch, watching Starcraft 2 from the Barcraft-network One Nations of Gamers tournament :) http://t.co/35sLK3NP
Between March 20 and September 22, days grow longer the farther north you travel.
@alemuci Ah thats so nice :) Thanks! Looking forward to it, i hope its understandable :)
@SjonMagnetron Haha! We have long night in the summer, not in the winter :)
@sebastianruholl No, we can’t blame Systembolaget for the high taxes on alcohol :)
This is how my street looked one early morning earlier this winter.. :) http://t.co/o7PV4PKR
@Smoothiver What i said was “don’t expect too much from me”, dont missquote. :)
@Smoothiver Well clearly it isn’t since i’m doing it for free. :)
@melhyria Np! Thanks! :) I’m more of a bread-guy when it comes to baking :)
@alice027 I think most swedes eat a lot of husmanskost, the traditional swedish everyday food, like swedish meatballs for example :)
@alice027 For most people i guess but maybe it’s different in other families :)
@alice027 Doubt it, maybe for a short period of time :P
Remember that i don’t get payed one bit for this, don’t expect too much from me. I hate cooking in english! :P
@robodog888 Yay i do enjoy looking like a fool..
Argh, the typos. This is so frustrating ^^
There we go, my recepie for #kanelbullar is done! :) Baking: http://t.co/uOQ6SRMt Making the dough: http://t.co/uOQ6SRMt
That pretty much sums up Systembolaget! :D
@CH23_ Nono, i use a more real camera than hte one my phone when i’ve got a choice :)
@CH23_ I use gimp. :) http://t.co/kfuXhhau It’s a quite powerful program, and it’s free. :)
@smurfatik If you can find it on http://t.co/z9dInTHP you can order it to any of their stores. :) @jmcouceiro
@Rav_Bunneh Hahaha i don’t dare to give a definitive answer to a question like that ^^
@NWFlorida Yeah, it pays for a couple of public service channels, and i think they’re pretty good :)
At least, that is the frew pics i shot today :)
This is Systembolaget, the monopoly for selling stronger beverages than 3.5% in sweden. Good service, wide range. :) http://t.co/VQ27aErp
@LSELT Yeah, the people from radiotjänst aren’t stupid, and i don’t think you should lie about having a tv :)
@yousefcisco Awwww :( And i said i should use the #food hashtag.. Am i a bad person now? :( @David_Ruser
@blodigt I know.
Nonono! Some swedes do know how to cook :) RT @David_Ruser Is that just pasta and ketchup? I’ve seen Swedes eat that! http://t.co/Lp4l1VuC
@mnystedt Doesn’t matter. That’s not how the rules work. http://t.co/p9ni3yOn
Tonights dinner is the staple food of swedish homes that most children loves. Pasta bolognese. Or rather “Spagetti med köttfärsås” :)
@Idabitar Eller ja, är nog svårt att anmäla. Men nej, så funkar det inte. :)
@Idabitar Det är ju fel, anmäl! Så ser inte lagen ut. Om du inte har tvkort i datorn dvs. :)
@IElmqvist Bor man här uppe så får man se dom positiva sidorna med en stabilt kall vinter, det är vitt, rent, torrt, ljust och fluffigt! :)
@FeliciaDybeck Well that’s only because your tv isnt compitable with the digital signal that they changed to couple of years back. :)
@faridqnoproblem I dont own a console, but ‘ve been playing some racinggames from my PC and it’s quite awsome! ;)
@andreashogena I agree. :)
@arrd1s Tack! :)
@Smoothiver Nej. :) http://t.co/p9ni3yOn
Changing the subject, i just finished baking #kanelbullar Howto later on! :) http://t.co/hKTrZm8O
@KarelBrits Every year, you can have many TVs per household though :)
@MovingToMontana @hildgrim Yeah the iplayer is pretty awsome.. ;)
@Anna_Waara Stämmer inte! Det har varit på förslag men aldrig kommit nån vart, tror inte det kommer ske. :)
Even with warrant they can’t go inside! Even if you invite them :) RT @darran Don’t they need a warrant to enter and search your house too?
You have to pay a TV-license in Sweden (about $300) if a household owns a tv-receiver Those are built into TVs.. If not, you dont! :)
Lot’s of swedes claim they don’t own a TV so they don’t need to pay. But I don’t need to lie, I’ve got a projector and 92″ screen instead!
I don’t even own a TV, hence i don’t need to pay the swedish TV-licence that’s 2016 kr per year for the public service channels.
@hildgrim Sc2 all the way :) Maybe i wasn’t too clear about that :)
Instead of watching tv i usually watch #Starcraft. Right now i’m enojying @GosyDoa and @CatspajamasSc2 casting at http://t.co/oMEp4hhc
@AlesigS I’m using caradmom on 75% and vanilla in the middle :)
@nathromeu If you have a good scale, try measuring a decilitre flour ten times when you have the chance, tricky to get it right.
@Miistaak Working on it :) I let my dough rest over night in fridge to develop taste :)
@krabbe But if you’re measuring flour your measurement will vary quite a lot. :) It’s the weight that matters :)
If you’re baking and want a good result, why take the risk by measuring by volume? Get a proper digital scale, they’re not expensive. :)
@BeckySJones I dont encourage measuring by volume, it’s like chancing on how much you get. :)
@BeckySJones But i could try to work on it, but i’m not sued to your silly measurements at all ;)
@BeckySJones No, convert your heart out :) If you have a scale, can’t you switch it to grams? :)
I grew up with a chef for a mom. What did I learn? There are very few rights and wrongs, don’t confine yourself to what’s common! :)
@KW_Tupperware Nope, but i doubt i am all alone with this interest. :)
@andrew_amb Generally the temperature after winter rises slowly. Normally the snow lasts for about 2 months after last snowfall. Gone by May
@tommlie But the tax on alcohol is based on the amount of alcohol in the product, hence more alcohol -> more expensive :)
@tommlie You can check all the prices at http://t.co/2oyRMN0q it’s the same in all their stores. Just search in the middle by name :)
I accidently lied to you all, no sandwiches now, rather the soup from last night, It’s soo good! :) Think I’m gonna bake more bread tomorow.
@mandalaya Ja.. Jag kan bara tänka mig hur det känns att plötsligt ha en hudradel så många följare.. :P Bakslag? ^^
@mandalaya Ahaaa tyckte du kändes bekant ;)
@mandalaya För jag får uttryckligen inte använda denna platsen för att sälja saker. :)
@mandalaya Tack! :) Jag har ett par besätällningar men det blir nått jag tar tag i en annan vecka, följ mig på @vassaste_kniven isf :)
@en_surkova You are not forced to follow anyone on twitter, do as you wish. :)
I’m quite hungry so it’s time for fika, and by that i mean tea and sandwiches. I’ll bake the #kanelbullar for my gofika later! :)
Btw, i didn’t buy what’s on the label on the box. :) I took it cos it’s dureable and bottle wont rattle on my way home!
@TheAng Thanks, i love it! :)
@Apexare I think swedish craft beer is as much sweden as anything else.
Time to bike home. #likeabaus http://t.co/Mr5GOd30
@TeslaRuser well.. I dont want to get sued do I, also easier to take good pics if you have to sneak around! :)
Photos done, uploading later. Time to buy my beer!
From official way from responsible spokesperson I get an okay!!! =) time for photos
Time to call the official media spokesperson att central systembolaget :)
A small park nearby my home :) between seasons.. :) http://t.co/Ie80fc6C
Swedish red house with white corners.. And some snow.. Keep in mind it’s been melting for two weeks :) http://t.co/HKU4PdHm
@Dolphinized Myth! I will uncover the truuuth! ;)
And yes i do look forward to introduce myself as @Sweden at Systembolaget.
I will try to uncover the mystery that is Systembolaget today, the Swedish monopoly for selling beverage above 3.5% alcohol outside bars.
@SarahCorde Oh yes they do! :) http://t.co/z1dW7urb
@Beersweden And i realise this comes untimley after their fail launch of their “local brewery campaign”.. So rather your view in general :)
@Beersweden Please tell me what your general views on Systembolaget is from a foreign point of view, in one tweet, I’ll retweet :)
@skazhy I’d say my favourite swedish brewerys are St Eriks, Oppigårds and Nils Oscar. :) And i appreciate good beer! :)
@kchannel9 Yeah it’s one of my seasonal favourites :) It’s swedish and i’m not sure how much Oppigårs exports.. looks soo good!
It was a Oppigårds Winter Ale :) http://t.co/7JOCDeZx RT @kchannel9 what beer are you drinking? #CraftBeerIhope…
@christopherlutz Yeah, it’s a bit of a hassle.. but on the other hand it’s an alarm clock so.. :)
@arrd1s Oh yes, just like the classic reggae! https://t.co/oxJbauia
@NWFlorida What kind of limpa do you mean? It’s the swedish word for loaf. :)
@arrd1s Looks quite allright indeed! :) Food processor with dough hook is so nice cos i can tweet while baking! ;)
@rrrrrrrix It seems like it’s availible on Swedish and EU spreadshirt, not on USA, not sure why. http://t.co/z1dW7urb :)
Soon time to bake my #kanelbullar, here’s the recepie for the dough i made last night, again. :) http://t.co/Y2XJvJ6c
I live in the same city as the guys behind Regular Ordinary @SwedishMealTime. They do cooking… Swedish style! #rosmt http://t.co/6GleFr3z
@notanindividual Well who knows, can’t you order one online? :)
@notanindividual I really enjoy mine! The light dimms on slowly, it’s availible in store that sells home appliances here :) Pretty cheap :)
@uraRinskje Nah, I just follow starcraft, not Korea in particular :) Last weekend was MLG Columbus! :)
@TeslaRuser Ah yeah, they’re so good! They are from Umeå to! :) Tweeting about them in a bit :)
I agree! Go sweden! Sweden fighting! RT @lewiji @quanticnani 응 스웨덴 화이팅~!
The #GSL is the most competative Starcraft tournament in the world, at least 95% are korean, but there are also a few “foreigners” :)
The #GSL has started for the day in Korea! No swedes this week, but @QuanticNaNi is up 13th of April ! Sweden fighting!
@mcpixelchick Hahaha nice :)
Making breakfast reminded me of Invader Zim.. http://t.co/GO3uZ9T8 Safe for work. :)
@Bjurstrom I’m getting to that :)
@s1mn It was a Oppigårds Winter Ale, pic taken before christmas :)
@inDeNile No.
Maybe some of you are curious on what is says on my apron? Here it is. Cheers! #rosmt http://t.co/hYGqYe8c
@Konvention I do :) But you can’t really tell what it’s saying.. :P @ChefyStephie
@inDeNile Well i said it was middle ages, didn’t i? :) Also, wake-ut-light is the shit, a smartphone isn’t powerful enough i think. :)
@wennborg not with a powerful wake up light :)
My middle age alarm clock.. waking up to a wake-up-light and then radio is actually quite nice. :) http://t.co/KvoPoNPk
@PAkerstrand nah, all the vowel sounds in swedish are not used in english, not even close :) @Saralaise
I had to adjust my alarm clock to daylight saving time manually.. What is this? The middle ages?
@jonaslauri nej nej.. Jag är från hörnefors! Inget annat!
My chastity belt to keep me concentration up when biking.. doubles as bike lock. http://t.co/FGY0bA2T
@chmod007 That’s why i added the alternative for dried yeast. :) Fresh yeast here is.. 2 kr for 50 grams, so.. 30 cent? :)
Time to brush them teeth and finally go to bed at 03:00. I have had a wonderful day tweeting as @Sweden, take care wherever you are! :)
@SDAWP_Janet I’m happy to hear it, thanks :)
@NWFlorida Probably ordinary rolls like -> @, but maybe something else as well! :)
@David_Ruser I am headed for bed, it’s soon 3 am :)
@STLwolverine Glad to hear it :)
@pannonicaUK Thanks for the support :)
I hope the recepie is understandable, I’m really not used to writing recepies in english :)
Damn, i spelled wheat wrong, oh the shame! ;)
Here is recepie for my dough for tomorrows #kanelbullar Bigger picture -> http://t.co/wdSmxSIV http://t.co/wdSmxSIV
Curious why I’m quiet? I’m not sleeping, i’m typing a recepie for kanelbulle-dough! :)
@MattiasAtterbom Fy! Jag har ritat den själv :)
@ChefyStephie I live in the same town as them, have met one of them before their fame :)
@TwitSchtef Powdercoating, regular paint will scratch to easily :)
@TwitSchtef I’m happy to hear it :) We have a bit more winter here than you do :)
@d_p_m_d Men det är ju ingen särskrivning! ;)
@GLarAuna På latin heter dinkel Triticum Spelta, för det tjocka skalet (speltet) som måste tas bort innan det mals :)
I’m not quite certain why so many of you are interested in my armpits.
@GLarAuna Dinkel = Spelt, Dinkelmjöl = Spelled flour.. fråga mig inte varför! :D
@karllindmark Nja, det märker du nog bättre själv om du tittar ut, är nog inte mer än 10 m/s :)
The bread in the picture was a baked with spelled wholemeal flour and sourdough. :) If you’re curious.. I’ll could bake it again! :)
@Konvention Hittar inte i tweetdeck och det är som lite begränsat det här med sweden :)
I usualy take a bunch of pictures and combine them into one. Here’s how i baked bread for example :) http://t.co/tKea7ko5
Sorry for that retweet, didn’t mean to and can’t take it back afaik :)
In Umeå it’s +7.2°C, quite windy, clear sky.. Not very much winter at all! #winterriot @dosespressos
@EllieSilwer @Saralaise Sure, but the fact of the matter is that Swedish has the most vowel sounds of all languages.. i think! :)
@RyGuy4136 No, i think eveyone should have right to the same healthcare. :) But obviously no systems are perfect :)
@RyGuy4136 I for one think the debate in USA is filled with propaganda and hatered. Everyone should have access to the healthcare they need.
@TonyAhola Hahaha awsome :D
Kassaapparater = Cash Registers. Kassa Apparater = Crappy Apparatus
Sjuksköterska = nurse, Sjuk sköterska = sick nurse. #särskrivning #swedishlessons
Combined words in swedish are used all the time, not combining them is known as a #särskrivning Rått kött = Raw meat, Råttkött = Rat meat.
@JeSuisEnFlicka Here http://t.co/e9tAyQku :)
You can find all the past Curators of Sweden at http://t.co/e9tAyQku :)
@Saralaise Splitting a combined word is known as a “särskrivning”, while “sär skrivning” basicly means “stupid writing”, for example :)
@Saralaise Swedish is quite different from English, we can create new words as we want, just smash em together :)
@Saralaise zebra crossing :)
@caseydriscoll Freshly baked = nygräddad :) Where ny is new and gräddad is baked :)
Translate “zebra crossing” from English to Swedish on google translate to hear how å ä and ö are pronounced :) http://t.co/MwYwx6xF
@jillithd Oh yes, works so well for a crate of beer to! Have to have your priorities stright, right?
@DuckFupper Aww thanks :)
@Saralaise Any why would you need to translate a swedish sentence anyways? ^^ That wont give you åäö :)
@Saralaise It should work with single letters, english to swedish, try it :)
It’s almost like i don’t want to go to bed for all week.. I enjoy beeing a curator of sweden :)
@Saralaise hard to explain, you can use google translate to let it read to you http://t.co/TH9z1hYQ :)
@rhobsonv Say what?
@felxl Eller hur! Skitroligt :D
@PdeBeer Thanks :)
The rack that i made for my bike is 315*315mm big inside, a pizza fits prefectly ;) http://t.co/fEza4Epe
@SmartBitches You’re welcome :)
@Siberant Yeah, it’s in Umeå :)
@barry84reid It’s been changed since i started tweeting this morning, it’s your twitter that hasn’t updated. :)
@trinnybopper Tack! :)
@mreuroguy Hiking in swedish mountains is best in July and August. Before it’s too wet, after it’s getting colder :)
@glennrice Hate is a word that is abused way to much, no hate here! But in sports the most important part is obviously to beat Norway.
None? :) @glennrice What’s the problem between you and Norway, anyway?
@ACMESalesRep I have baked kneadfree bread loads of times, it’s quite convenient. However it has it’s drawbacks :)
I’m told i’m soposed to keep tweeting as usual. Not to speak on the behalf of the nation. :)
Oh right, i’m quite hungry.. i forgot.
@Ellissports But i don’t think we have a good system when property can double and even tripple in value in 10-20 years. #imho
@Ellissports It depends on where you live, but i think it’s fairly stable. :)
@JeroenBartelse I’m not really into the whole hype of Apples products. :)
@A_FV Job as a welder or working with steel :)
I giggle every time i get retweeted for stuff the last curator @ladydahmer said.. :)
Done listening to Desmond Dekker, The Gladiators, Symarip, Peter Tosh and The Ethiopians. Which of course is why making the dough was easy.
Take care of your dough, it’s important for the outcome. http://t.co/m1oqQdth
Allthough fika is also a social thing and not only what you eat.. So call it whatever you want, this is a free country! :)
To me.. There is fika and there is gofika! Fika is bread and such. Gofika is kanelbullar, cookis and so on.. Cos this is NORRLAND! <3
Don’t get me started on fika.. Cos you have got it all wrong!
I leave the dough to rise over night in fridge, finish them tomorrow, i will make the dough, take pictures, post recepie under #kanelbullar
@iSoso96 Dough now, baking them tomorrow. :) And.. minus points for beeing obvious! ;)
Also i’m listening to classic reggae while baking, this is important for the yeast to rise properly.
Before i start baking #kanelbullar: This is how i bake them, i know there are a lot of alternative ways, i prefer this one. :)
@CraigCottingham msk is 15 ml, tsk is 5 :)
@annabrones Dont take it too litteraly.. :) @kokblog
@masterslm @akx I know how to convert, just warning that if you translate the page directly it destroys the recepie. :)
@CraigCottingham It’s quite funny in swedish to, but the translations are kinda funky :D
@trollnystan Tur att det är lite utbildningsvecka för bakning på @Sweden då! ;)
Soundtrack for doing the dishes.. Katie Melua – Spiders Web :) http://t.co/aW2an2fB #prettygood
Ok so.. Brb! I will clean up a bit in my kitchen, then it’s time for first half of baking #kanelbullar!
. @smurfatik Happy to hear it :) I know a brit in finland who lets his parents send him tea from mother England! ^^
Allthough my kitchen is a mess, i’m not sure i dare to take pics.
Oh wait.. If I’m soposed to deliver a good recepie maybe i should get serious.. #apronON
A dough with yeast develops more taste if it’s left to rest over night in the fridge.. Which means.. It’s time to make ze dough!
Will you hate me if i say i dont think drenching something in butter makes it better? Asking for a friend.
@merula Obviously.. :)
@smurfatik I’m usually with you on that one :)
The important part about bullar is not weather you fill them with cinnamon, cardamom. vanilla or almond paste.. it’s the dough!
Actually.. baking kanelbullar (allthough i prefer cardamon instead of cinnamon, hence kardemummabullar) tommorrow would work!
@shanda1701 It’s romanesco broccoli, a mix of cauliflower and broccoli basicly :)
Sure! I will bake kanelbullar some day, i have a quiiiiite good recepie :)
@mpoudyal I guess :) Have a few to make for a couple of friends, when i don’t know yet :)
@akx I know, but if you google translate the page 3 dl turns to 3 cups. #notthesame :)
@TallulahTwirl Say whaaat? ^^
The cooking blog is at http://t.co/DV1ZdmsE The recepies are in swedish and google translate does not handle decilitre to cups. #warning :)
@CH23_ Haha, cangratulations ;)
I like Romanesco broccoli! It’s beautiful! It’s even the background for my cooking blog. :) http://t.co/ClHMay1v
@SandraSaivo And i have a hard time enough choosing allready! :P
@SandraSaivo I think i prefer mine ^^
@chaotickat But four wheel drive does not help you to brake ;)
Left to right: Darjeeling TGFOP, Rooibos Cactus Orange, Green mint tea, Vanilla & Chocolate, Rooibos rhubarb cream, Lemon apricot vanilla.
I think i mentioned I drink tea.. Only hard part is to choose which one! #chocolatevanilla http://t.co/5fjZxBtD
@lukism I know, it’s just a matter of making them, customers, pricing and economy. :)
At first i was like.. “Yeah, studded tyres for my bike.. just like on a car!” But then i realised.. maybe you don’t have those either?
@lukism Thanks! It’s so incredibly useful to :)
Honey! I’m home! Oh.. Wait.. #foreveralone
Reason for studded tyres ;) http://t.co/ePUwUzhv

@charliekvittrar har byggt den :) svetsare du vet! :)
@richardksmith yeah, this is now :) imagine that the snow has been melting for two weeks :)
@taydeupree I dont think I’m that qualified for this matter, what kind curator are you looking for? :)

Its time for pool! http://t.co/Im7bahdn
Time for pool! Pic is bout 2 weeks old :) http://t.co/iBTSaiVu
Damn, now i feel a bit stressed.. have to be there in.. 23 minutes. This is not a good start of the pool tournament :P
@fem_pire Oh bald i guess :)
@Raftsjo @mirre Själv tycker jag vi har sett så mycket av storstadssverige från @sweden redan nu. Hälften har varit från sthlm..
@JaapKlaver I have stayed at home so far today, leaving for home in a bit so yeah, it’s comming :)
@jarek_pawel It works with beef reindeer and moose, allthough you need to modifyt he recepie a bit :) Soo good with elk! :)
@simondaninja But it’s not the “same animal” over here and over there, they have been devided for so long :)
@simondaninja Pretty much ;)
@Fauwk Du vet att det är 270000 som jagar älg i sverige va? :)
@hottiejez I rather think it’s a way to put where he lives on the map, to put it to perspective :) Rather than saying i’m famous.
@smamat Not in sweden :)
@jmcouceiro @israelubeda But.. i thought we were ment to have a fight :(
@simondaninja Moose is an american word for the moose over there, european elk is the same animal, American Elk is something else. :)
I usualy eat by my computer, cos I don’t like the dinnertable when alone :)
Early dinner before tonights pool tournament! Leftover köttsoppa! (Meat soup?) with some bread i baked yesterday. :) http://t.co/x1otablR
@lordyosch They are, the best when it matters :)
@SEmelie Haha va bra, det här är bara början ;) @vassaste_kniven normalt du vet! ;)
@smacnab Haha don’t worry :) Thanks! :)
@jarek_pawel They are quite shy, you need to be far out in the deep woods AND be lucky :)
@fem_pire Oh wait! I didn’t read your tweet properly. I’ll make sure to tell her! Allthogh she is bold under her hat..
@fem_pire Don’t get me wrong. I didnt say all people with grey hair are angry, i said SHE was angry cos of her grey hair. She’s vain!
@SEmelie Japp! Livskraftig stam som förökar sig snabbt, måste jagas storskaligt för att inte växa i storlek :)
@JiniMae I’m sure it is :) A joke :P
@TonyEmmerson You complaining on my spelling? :(
There is an outrage about there beeing to many wolfes in sweden, they are about 220 of them.. Sadly poaching occurs.
In the spring there is about 300000 elk in Sweden. In the fall after the hunting season its about 200000. Every year.
@FizaIsa Not too sure, no mouth either!
@fem_pire Damn, hope that makes her happy. I think she turned evil when she was sad that her hair turned grey :)
@jarek_pawel Don’t you worry, voodoo wasn’t anything evil. It was just the christians missionaries that spread that propaganda :)
@ellaboheme Hi! o/

@apocalypsepunk Haaai!
Maybe it’s spelled british, sorry for that!
Sometimes i feel so brittish. Enjoying snooker, Formula1, QI and tea. Now even the brittish weather has come here!
@israelubeda @pikucom @Marionstockholm @jmcouceiro But i don’t speak spanish? :P

@skovieragirl Thanks! :)
@CatherineDunn8 Thanks :)
@angelicaan Thanks :) It’s not that hard! Only a couple of different stitches and some threedimensional thinking :)
@vencut2 I fear i have a hard time keeping it up.. But we’ll see! ;)
@akaSimone Sure, but it’s used for so much more than “5v5 plzzzzzz”, just need the right channels :)
For the record, when My was born i wanted her middle name to be Precious, she still got the dog, and she liked it :)
If anyone wanted to talk on IRC, you can join our little channel #hardrockmonster on Quakenet :)
@elinboardy Finns recept här :) http://t.co/3F4Elzvo
@zombiekitty78 Well it’s not done yet :P
A lion should look dangerous, it’s more ok for a green dog to be cute, right? Made it for a friends 1 year old My :) http://t.co/Hx8MqNlv
I learned some crocheting this fall.. i’m making a little lion! :D http://t.co/PJiuh6hJ
@Hutnu Ja jo, Hartman är bäst, han låter spelet tala för sig själv :) Som vacchi sa: “lyssna på när Hartman håller käften i två timmar” ;)
@sorenms Haha I’m happy to hear it :)
@brigibabe Ah yeah, i don’t drink it but i think many do. For those who dont drink beer or wine :) rekorderlig is quite popular :)
@brigibabe Rekorderlig? I drink beer, good beer, mostly IPA :)
If you didn’t like the lambs video, I am sorry :( But if you did: Check out cyriaks other videos. :P
@peacefullykeira I hope i havent caused any harm :)
I hope it wasnt bad posting that video :D
@RhinocerYes Sorry :(
This is what i think about when i think lambs.. Pretty psychedelic! :D Slight warning mayhaps.. http://t.co/oFvXr5Rg
@Chiliac3 Som @Vassaste_kniven :)
@TenutoTuo Depends on my mood, i enjoy green mint tea, rooibos, darjeeling tgfop and black tea with various tastes, no teabags! :)
For those curious, i usually tweet as @Vassaste_kniven, not this week though :)
@beanobundle Ok.
@Brasselfrat Finland! Kippis! ;)
The nordic countries drinks most coffee in the world, Sweden in second place. However I drink tea, and lots of it. :)
For those curious on #Starcraft 2, there will be a pretty awsome tournament in Annexet Globen Stockholm 21-22 April! http://t.co/y05ah4D7
@greykarn Tror inte jag bör länka till en sida som säljer biljetter, gärna till en som har information om eventet dock! :)
@badassday Nobody forces you to follow anyone on twitter, i don’t think you can complain :)
Do you remember the earlier curators? :) Now it’s lambs lambs lambs.. RT @Ekobonden Dags för #dagenslammbild http://t.co/OzvgWF4F
When i feel stressed or need to think clearly, these help a lot. Juggling is soothing, you should try it :) http://t.co/qCGqdURC
Allthough i think i prefer to watch QI, Formula1 and Snooker in English :)
@sneanea I don’t think your his… type :P
@louesejackson Indeed :)
#Qi rules: Get points for beeing correct, get more points for beeing interesting, receive a penalty for beeing obvious. :)
I like the TVshow Quite Interesting, and maybe same rules should be applied in life? :D #QI
@emeliegullehag Men ingen fara :D
@emeliegullehag Lite mer lite på den här sidan så att säga, du var inte först :P
@FriederikeHell I don’t really feel comfortable in giving advice for you to sleep outisde in the snow, there are risks involved. :)
@emeliegullehag Läs resten av tweetsen också innan du svarar? :P
@0ttilia Tyvärr, inga vilda renar i sverige, alla ägs av någon :)
Isn’t it nice of me not to joke about google beeing american with those “translations”? ^^
I wonder what google thought when they translate decilitre to cups and kronor to dollars.. Seems scary if someone translates my recepies!
@obeka I posted it yesterday to, and the day before that! You should have followed @Vassaste_kniven ;) Also no, you dont! :D
@yuitini Kul för dig ;)
@vegangeekgirl @mattiasubbesen That was @ladydahmer, you should tweet her about it :)
@dekaminski Såhär! :) http://t.co/m2EghJ4u
@yuitini Härligt! :) Så enkelt att köpa frusna bär om man inte har egna :)
Also.. I think it’s so hard with cooking in english.. but i’ll do my best :)
You can make waffles with pancakebatter and yeast or baking powder. I dont. Whipped cream, flour, icecold water. Nothing else! :)
I made the strawberry jam last night, soo much better than the one you buy, and you know whats in it :) 80% strawberry, 20% sugar :)
Yes i know swede is another ‘label’, but it’s hard enough to express yourself in 140 charactes isnt it? :)
@AntZoo I believe you understand what i mean, and it’s hard enough to express yourself in 140 letter isn’t it?!
Waffleday was yesterday, but i don’t care! :) #food http://t.co/qGGIbXsP
I’ll use the #food hashtag for my tweets with pics of food that might cause hunger. Mute it if you want (and can) :)
What is the official warning for a tweet that may cause hunger? I’m asking for a friend..
I’m neither a feminist, masculinist, vegetarian or other such things because i try not to label myself. I’m Tomas, a swede.. :)
@Johnssonskan Animals avoid humans in the wild, you need to bring your own food :)
@tombellino New swede every week, maybe that was last night. :)
@tombellino I’m no parent! :)
@bigblackfairy You can follow them all on twitter :) archive at http://t.co/Nd6ZKVp6
@bigblackfairy There is none ;)
@crofterbecca You should update your own twitter client, it’s not on my side :)
@Smoothiver Eller ja, nån har varit utflyttad norrlänning.. men ändå!
@Smoothiver Jag är den första av mycket mer än bara gamer.. ;) Norrlänning exempelvis!
Also, about the profile picture, it was better before they cut it! (You are the bread!) http://t.co/71y16Sjw
I’m a bit tired having watched the MLG Columbus all weekend.. A quiiite big #Starcraft 2 tournament :) $25000 to the winner..
@AdamLufGideon Kom med en bättre då?!
And as far as i know a moose is an animal in north america, we have elks in europe.. Not to be comfused with the elks in USA.. Hmmm!
@AdamLufGideon Säker på det? http://t.co/RI4RP3AE
Yesterday was waffleday, i still have batter left.. #ohno
Sometimes i feel that Twitter is kind of the new IRC, only now you get to customize who writes in your own custom channel :)
And IRC is the Internet Relay Chat, much older than the world wide web :) Chatting channels you can join freely, mostly :)
@_phoeniks Tent does only protext from wind and weather, does not add any heat. That’s what a sleepingbag is for! :)
@niltiac But also if they think that mine tweets are too many maybe following more people isn’t the answer.. :)
Sorry if i tweet too much, I’m more used to IRC. :) Way more conversations than “status updates” there :)
@justinCPH It will slow down, lots of questions though :P Dont worry :)
I don’t own my own cue but i’m fairly good at least, play once or twice a week. Been in very few tournaments :) http://t.co/YLKjBHvy
I enjoy playing pool, and I’ve actually entered a small weekly tournament tonight, 7 people attending :)
I view my blogs just like the kind of book you keep at home, with recepies and photos.. Only mine are public, no ads! :)
If you’re curious on my cooking skills.. I try to post some favourite recepies to http://t.co/DV1ZdmsE funky-translation to the right :)
@JBSCanada Hi john! Thanks, i have posted some pics on a small adventure-blog :) http://t.co/tg1HbIOn
Praised be the dishwasher!
Not thatI’m blaming Hugh Jackman to kill elk, what do i know about that..
The wolverine might be shy but it can be a vicious creature. known to occasionaly kill elk.. Not unlike the actinfigure..
How does a wolverine look? Think of a bear and a squirrel mating.. http://t.co/fFT2VjTM
I’m one of the few people i know that have seen a wild Wolverine, they are soooo shy! A small wolverine was sneaking around our campsite :)
@hedlundsk Det är bytt på min sida, det är bara frågan om att din klient uppdaterar. :)
Not really :) And allemansrätten isnt for fishing :) @dosespressos oh and I thought you guys in Sweden let the fish go after you catch it :)
@TheUppsalaKoala Don’t get stuck. Bring a cellphone and warm clothes at winter, allways. :)
I’m sorry for “spamming your timelines” time to do the dishes. :)
At least not the swedish kids! :) RT @Jelvas0920 I like raindeer meat… Does that make every kid hate me? : p
And I am sorry for spelling reindeer wrong, you know english isn’t my native language, right? And i try not to be scared ot typing wrong..
No! And he wasn’t even from around here. That’s why he wasnt prepared. @TheUppsalaKoala Are you, by any chance, the car-igloo-man from Umeå?
@TheUppsalaKoala No, there lives more than 100000 ppl in Umeå :)
And the sami spikes some controversy in Sweden, it’s complicated. :) The ones with reindeers are nomads :)
The sami is the original population of sweden and lapland. Allthough they have been treated horribly at times..
@richardksmith http://t.co/FjL0nHHX :) Another alternative is http://t.co/FjL0nHHX :)
Don’t tell this to your kids, but the raindeers are not brought intended to pull santas carriage..
We also haven’t got no raindeer in Sweden. No wild ones that is, there are thousands and thousands owned and taken care or by the sami.
And no, we haven’t got no Polar Bears in Sweden.. I have only seen elk, lynx and wolverine on my trips! ;) Yes, wild.
Come to think of it i’m pretty used to ordering stuff i want, no customs in EU and lots of stuff are cheap on ebay..
My sleeping bags are custom made in Poland! So much cheaper than something sewn in china and sold in Swedish stores. Strange..
Yellow bag is comfortable down to -14°C, red one to 0°C. Combined it doesnt really matter… Slept well in -36°C! http://t.co/eqorKMue
To stay warm in a tent durning winter you need a proper sleeping mat and a nice sleeping bag, i can take a picture of mine ;)
@i_resuscitated No?
@Solsjo Men man måste ju sätta tonen, eller hur?! ;)
About blog? Lol, Blood! :)
I wouldn’t consider myself a sami, because it’s not really about blog rather about culture :) My dad isn’t sami but his sister is. :)
And cooking! Home or not doesn’t matter :) http://t.co/QxHQRZTG
I also enjoy fishing.. :) http://t.co/pZMU776j
Tweeting as @Vassaste_Kniven (The sharpest knife) started as a joke.. But at least I’m trying..
You see the tent, right? Small and yellow..
With Allemansrätten in Sweden you have the right to camp “anywhere”, but dont disturb and don’t destroy :) http://t.co/cgUcFWBp
The swedish mountainside can be quite beautiful once in a while. Hard to get to, but beeing alone is part of the fun :) http://t.co/9JErJkTW
However this is living on old merits, i haven’t been unicycling in a while. My recent pictures shows i mostly bake! https://t.co/q49WLDKG
Allthough unicyclists aren’t a common theme on the swedish mountain trails, I’ve created a legend.. This summer it comes to life again!
Unicycling on trails is not impossible, its so much harder when it’s covered by planks of wood.. http://t.co/lnFziWbb
This was me couple of years ago, setting out on a 5 day trip ;) http://t.co/7DhOrzFd
But as i said, i miss tenting on snow! THE winter experience.. :) In the wild! http://t.co/VuMr1bVl
It may sound hard to do such a trip, but i know i can, cos i’ve done it before. ;) http://t.co/QnuRrlzJ
This summer I’m planning for a 6 day trip on unicycle, with packing, on trails, in the mountains.
Unicycling is not only wobbling around on a flat floor.. and does not belong at the circus (just like horses :) )
And no i don’t to flyfishing and unicycling at the same time, whats the point of that..
@MsPraxis Nope, no point in that :)
I’m not that into beeing super nerdy.. Not because i lack of interests, but because i have too many!
If you check the blog out you shall see I do enjoy both flyfishing and unicycling ;)
@ElroyK Newest one afaik. In chrome. I want to see my own tweets listed, how?
I have done a couple of smaller adventures.. and saved most of them on a small blog with lots o pictures :) http://t.co/Khd3NypN No ads :)
I don’t telemark cos it’s cool, only because its FUN! :) RT @danielsjoman Telemark is so cool!
@israelubeda Yes i have..
Also i’m trying to get the hang of Tweetdeck so.. bear with me! :)
The weather today is +4.3°C, grey and kinda.. not so much weather, it just is.
@berinder By recommendations. :)
The swedish mountain chain is like 600km long with skiing all the way, there is lots of places to go and things to see and do!
But I’ve been coughing for all winter, only two days of riding.. First winter in what.. 4-5 years without tenting on snow? OUTRAGEOUS!
And allthough spring is nice, i really do enjoy the winter! I’m a #telemark skier! Pic of me from last winter! http://t.co/CRfvhu1p
It’s been horrible weather for a few weeks. Snow has been melting, roads are bare and i bet we only have like 40-50cm left in general..
I ride my bike when going somewhere in town all year long, obviously i have studded tyres on it, and winter isn’t over yet…
Growing up in Umeå a winter for me is white roads covered in snow and ice for about 4 months a year, temperatures stable below 0°C!
If we haven’t got anything better to talk about, lets talk about the weather!
Not beeing allowed to have someone chose what crappy heavy gear i should carry when screaming at me.. i had to take care of that myself!
I also wasn’t allowed to enter the military service at 18, my knees put a stop to that. Even though “lumpen” is volontary today!
Then i worked for my dad that’s an old blacksmith/welder, we were mostly repairing bombshelters for the two years it lasted. :)
I however am a fairly bright guy who studied Science at High School, i spent a winter working on fishinboats in the north of Norway
My dad actually went to school together with the greatest swedish downhill skier ever Ingemar Stenmark..
I’m grown up here around Umeå, on holidays I have been bound north, since my mom is from Haparanda archipelago, my dad is from Tärnaby!
Even though i live about 650km from Stockholm, i still live further than that from the northern peak of sweden!
Lets talk about Norrland, the northern 59% of sweden, where 12% of the population lives. Not too many but allmost as many as in Stockholm :)
I’m hte 16th @Sweden and for some reason i’m the first from north of Uppsala.. and there is quite a lot of sweden north of Uppsala.
I am a 24 year old guy who lives in Umeå, in a part of Sweden where we actually have four seasons, down south they only have three..
I however am looking forward to a fun week! My week! With some more or less local cooking and baking! I usually tweet as @Vassaste_kniven :)
First of all i want to thank @ladydahmer for a quite interesting week on twitter, make sure not to forget her. Follow her if you want to. :)
