Hello my name is….. Matilda.. I’m currently travelling in Brazil since 6 weeks and I am writing an autobiography about my stepfather and partly about myself growing up with him as a panorama and crazy guide into life. He lived 25 years in South America, during the 40:s, 50:s and 60:s. He was the chief engineer and planner for the renovation and modernisation of the railway system between Chile, Peru and Bolivia. But he was also a passionate traveller and adventurer, that spoke six languages fluently and threw himself fearless around the world. In the mid 60:s he started to develop Schizophrenia, and without realizing that he was sick, he went back to Sweden. He ended up with my mother and lured me in a sick, crazy and sometimes fantastic world of madness and beauty. At least he made sure that I had nothing in common with my contemporaries. I’m also a teacher, giving courses in Social Science and Culture- and Designhistory in Upper Secondary School in Stockholm, Sweden.
