Guiding at/Specialities:  T he whole of Bohuslän, Swedish north west coast and Gothenburg, in combination if you like.
Presentation: Gothenburg and Sweden’s northwest coast is called ”Sweden’s best coast”. There is a good reason for that! The west coast of Sweden has everything; beautiful nature, wonderful archepelago, good food, nice shopping and exciting history. Here you can find rockcarvings from 1 700- 200 BC, stories about the vikings who lived here and the wars between our neighbour countries to get the power to rule over the northwest coast/Bohuslän.

I live in Gothenburg and love traveling, meeting new people, and experiencing different cultures. Living in the United States for a year as an exchange student, while in high school, was an experience of a lifetime that created many fond memories and lifelong friendships. One of my main interests is history which led me to pursue certification as a guide for Gothenburg and Bohuslän, covering the whole northwestern Swedish coast with its beautiful archipelago. I am also a certified guide for Gothenburg City Development, currently the largest city development in Scandinavia. I am truly passionate about enlightening locals and visitors to the region of the west coast as well as to Gothenburg’s history, present and future. Welcome to contact me for more information!
