Henrik's travelpage

by Henrik_rrb - last update: Nov 5, 2009

Harbour of Sliema, Malta. September 2009.
Ciao! And welcome to my part of the VT-world!

Time to update this page a bit as it has been the same all the time since 2005.

A while ago I read an article about people who said they were travelholic. Not sure if that is something that really exist, but if so - I think I'm one...?

I just love travelling, seeing both new and old places. The last year has brought me to the southeast Asia, as I've met a wonderful and fantastic girlfriend in Singapore. With her I've then explored both Singapore and places around there, and I'm soon off there again. Sooner than later we'll move in together, we'll just see if it will be in Singapore or Sweden.

The last years have been fantastic seen from a travel point of view, with me being away from home more often than rarely.

A short list of where I've been. As much for you as for me, to serve as a reminder which pages I must update or create.

Interested of football?

And another page.

My main interest in life is football, so therefore I've created another VT-footballpage just about that beautiful sport. This said and done, because I know that not all people on this world have the same interest as I do...

So, if you want to read more about churches, boattrips, restaurants, discoteques and more like that; keep on reading at this site.

If you want to know more about why Stadio Dell'Ara in Bologna has got that name, or which club that has the best or most violent supporters, where to buy tickets for Milan-games or other things like that - just follow the link above.

Both pages will be updated as often as possible, although the last years I haven't had as much time for any of the pages as I wish for.

Here will be a lot of texts and advices about sightseeing, partying, sports and where you can have a nice day. And also where you might have the opposite.

Me

I'm a swedish guy. I've lived in Milano, Italy, for almost two years, but since May 2004 I'm back in Sweden.

I work as a sport journalist, and strange enough I also spend most of my time and travels to do or see sport. I love football (soccer) and went to see 1-4 games every week in Italy.

When I'm not working, or going to football-games, I relax, stay with my friends, talk with my girlfriend or plan the next trip.

Football trips

At least half of my trips are football related (having said that I still haven't seen the football stadium in Singapore, despite four trips in a year there...). With my brothers I've been going to the Euro 2000, Euro 2004, Euro 2008, the World Cup 2006 and the Confederations Cup the year before. To cheer and celebrate Sweden's victories (well, there are a few at least...) is great, and it also gives me opportunities to see places I never seen before, or probably never would see either.

The last two years following Sweden has brought me to places like Liechtenstein, Albania, Northern Ireland, Switzerland, Portugal, Austria, Hungary and Malta.

Next trip

After four trips in a short period (Singapore, Hungary, Malta and Copenhagen) I'm now calming down for a while. Next trip is to Singapore to stay for three months with my beautiful girlfriend!

Can't wait!!

 Ciao Henrik! Nice updated photo! Thanks so much for the note on my home page. I'm sure Nic will support Newcastle now that he'll be there for a short time. But his heart is really with Chelsea (they beat Inter Milan on Tuesday in L.A.)!

 Henrik! You'll be in Malta in Sept? Me, too! Though not until late...and maybe not until Oct 1. I'm usually there twice a year for 3 weeks. It would be funny if we finally meet, but in Malta.
