An idiot abroad? Well, it's a Swede abroad! From time to time, I take on a guest and talk about drive, background, politics, dreams, work (VÄRVET is Swedish for "the task"), and the future. All in all, the Swedish and the English spoken versions of VARVET have been downloaded some 70,000,000 times. I hope you'll contribute with another one.
