YOUTH


I used to be the youngest in every class, group or working environment. I used to be that guy ahead of his years, being both young and responsible. "Wow, you're really only 21?" is something I used to get a lot. There are things in my life that have made me become an adult ahead of my time. And after a certain point you get used to it - being a child, but also an adult.

Relatable


I often feel as if I can't relate to people, things and feelings. And while living in a world where being relatable and likable are sometimes keys to success, it makes me feel somewhat lost and alone. I've always been a loner, it's just who I am. But sometimes I can't help but wonder - am I alone in my loneliness? What I mean by that is I know there are other people like me who share the same traits and views and interests, but somehow I've been unable to meet them.

Clarity



I have these moments of clarity when I feel like I know exactly what to do. It all suddenly makes so much sense. Like the answer has just been there waiting for me to find it.
And then other times it's so easy for me to lose any kind of motivation and dedication I had and all I can do is be miserable. I do that a lot actually.

Misguided



I've never known what it's like to belong. I've always felt out of place. In my family, in school, on the street, at work, in life. I'm always the odd man out. It's like there's this other world where everyone seems to live and I only get to see it from a distance. Things happen around me and I merely observe it, but not really experience it. Like I'm living without existing. Or perhaps the other way around, whichever sounds more poetic.

WHY I'M A MINIMALIST


I recently made a new youtube video discussing my views on minimalism, how I became a minimalist & also the controversy around it. My views on minimalism might differ from what you've heard before. I just wanted to make it clear that not all minimalists are the same.

25 THINGS ABOUT ME


I'm back with a new video o my youtube channel. And this time I'm doing something totally new! It felt super weird shooting and editing this video. I'm so used to writing blog posts and editing photos that it comes with a sense of security. But speaking on camera definately did not come easy for me.
