So finally my paper on The newsroom of tomorrow is online - you can read it here. And my encounter with ex-Terminator and governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt is live and kicking at Podtech.net - here (it's ruff and raw but we thought it was better to get it out fast that beautiful...).
It's always nice to publish things. In the old days it used to mean you could not do any more changes and that the piece was - well - done. I try to live by that lesson, to let go of things when I publish - although with the internet it's difficult (since you can make changes over and over again). Very often the first thing you write is as good as something you've spent hours and hours on (but again - not always - so there are no rules).
On a whole other subject: American cities are most beautiful at night and at distance, when you actually see the skyline. Crossing the looong Oakland-bridge towards San Francisco the other night was breathtaking, especially while listening to As favorite radio channel smooth jazz :) I'll never lose my love for big cities and the energy in them.

- on joy and creating a better world
A tribute to happiness, passion, great ideas and joy
In a world shadowed by climate change, wars, economic downturns, terrorism and racism it´s important to acknowledge life´s pure moments - the ones that click and fill us with joy, inspiration or happiness. In the end they will make the world better.
The moments can be simple (like the laughter of a child) or complex (like getting a new climate treaty in place) or delicate (like a croissant in Paris) or purely aesthetic (like artist Smadar Dreyfus exhibition at Magasin 3 in Stockholm) or filled with inner peace (like a beautiful yoga class). This blog is a tribute to them.

The name Bubble and Faith
It was a project I started with my dear friends Maria and Helena in Stockholm, Sweden. We wanted to create an online shop for fashion- and design-interested mothers like ourselves. In the end we decided to focus on other things but I love the name Bubble (representing that sparkling feeling you want to have in life) and Faith (what everything is actually based on).
