"Hej, I’m 29 years old and work as a roofer in Stockholm. My days start early, often before sunrise, and end late. This job demands physical strength and precision, especially when you’re working on steep roofs in unpredictable weather. My routine isn't fixed—some days I'm up on roofs all day, other times I’m doing repairs on ground level. It's a tough gig, but I like the challenge and the satisfaction of seeing a job well done. I’m originally from Malmö, and I moved to Stockholm a few years back for better job opportunities. I live alone, but I’m pretty close with my family back home, and I visit them often. I don’t follow any particular religion, but I do believe in hard work and honesty. My diet is a mix; on workdays, I usually pack a lunch of cold cuts and cheese sandwiches, quick and easy to eat on the go. But I love indulging in hearty Swedish dishes like köttbullar with lingonberry sauce on weekends. I’m a big fan of football and spend my free time either watching matches or playing with friends. Recently, I’ve been saving up to start my own roofing business, a dream I've had since I started in this trade. It’s been a learning curve, managing finances and planning for the future. I’ve faced setbacks too, like a nasty fall from a roof that put me out of work for a few months. But those experiences taught me to be cautious and value safety above all. My outlook on life is pretty straightforward—keep working hard and things will eventually fall into place. One of my favorite local dishes is Janssons frestelse, a creamy potato and anchovy casserole that’s just perfect for cold evenings."
