The Story of My Life

First of all I have to make clear that my real name isnīt Jason. Thatīs something that my friends made up many years ago. It came out of my familyname, and has nothing (or little ) to do with my personallity.

The 16th of January 1975 was the first day of my life. I was born in the city of Karlskrona in the southern part of Sweden. From that day my life just went on and nothing really special happened. I lived a very ordinary life, with ordinary friends (well, kind of...) and an ordinary family.

The year I turned 16 I finaly started to turn away from the big mass. I started to study to become a kindergartenteacher. As 1 of 4 boys I started in a class of 30. For some reson I didnīt understand that before it was to late and it was time to leave school !

Later on I desided to specialize at dissabled children and after I finished school I worked for 18 months with a boy who had the diagnose Autism. It was a great time and I really learned a lot.

When these 18 months were over it was time for my military service. I was placed at A3, where I spent 15 months as an artillery observer, wich basically means youīre trying to get as close to the enemy as possible in order to see if and were the artilleryshells are hitting whithout getting killed at the same time ! For some reason I realy had (apart from many others) a great time during these 15 months dressed in green.

Well, the service came to an end and I desided to go to Israel. Me and a friend left Sweden in mid June -96 and ended, in some time, up at kibbutz Degania Bet. The kibbutz is locatet south of the Sea of Gallile in the north of Israel. The basic work I did was in the bananafields. I had a great time, mostly because of all the people I met. And I know everything about bananas! =) The silly thing is that I missed Jerusalem allmost completely ! For some reason I went to a lot of other places instead and after a while I kind of ran out of money and hade to go home.

I came home in mid October -97 and once again started to work witha a boy who's got Autism.

When I came home from Israel I spent some time with the computer and made some friends while chatting at my favourite chat Basement. I even met some of them and I donīt regret it. Apart from the computer, I spent some time with my girlfriend and after a while I was getting the feeling that another trip abroad would be great. So we went to Israel again, to the same kibbutz were I was the last time. We stayed there for three months and then took a ferry to Greece were we visited Rodes, Kos and Kalymnos.I will soon put some pictures here from our trip.
Once again I'm back with my old work...we'll se for how long.
