  • #39 - Att Komma Hem Igen (Swedish)

    ”Om jag tar ett steg till, kommer jag att vara längre hemifrån än någonsin tidigare.”

    Med det citatet från Sagan om Ringen börjar jag en reflektion om tid, migration, identitet och att hitta tillbaka till sig själv.

    En personlig berättelse om att lämna sitt land, sin familj, sina rötter… och om vad det egentligen innebär att komma hem igen.

  • Returning Home: Why the Place You Left No Longer Exists

    I left Argentina in 2002 during the crisis, thinking I'd return soon. I didn't. And the last time I went back, I felt like a tourist in my own city. In this episode I reflect on what it really means to return home — and why, after years of living abroad, the home you remember is not a place anymore. It's a version of yourself that no longer exists either. A personal episode about displacement, impermanence, and what Marcus Aurelius understood about all of it.

  • #39 - Volviendo a Casa (Spanish)

    “Si doy un paso más, será lo más lejos que he estado de mi hogar en toda mi vida”.

    Con esa frase de El Señor de los Anillos empiezo esta reflexión sobre el tiempo, la migración, la identidad y el reencuentro con uno mismo.

    Una mirada íntima a lo que significa dejar tu país, tu familia, tus raíces… y lo que significa volver, aunque no sea físicamente.

  • #38 - Vad är svensk kultur? (Swedish)

    I det här avsnittet reflekterar jag över vad svensk kultur egentligen innebär utifrån min personliga erfarenhet. Jag pratar om landsbygdens rötter, vardaglig jämlikhet, kärleken till naturen, ödmjukhet, konsensus och Sveriges öppenhet mot världen. En nära och eftertänksam syn på ett samhälle i förändring.

  • What Is Swedish Culture? A Foreigner's View After 11 Years

    Everyone thinks they know what Swedish culture is. The minimalist design, the blonde hair, the welfare state. But after more than eleven years living here, I think it's something else entirely — it's in the silence in elevators, in the manager who makes his own coffee, in the unwritten rule that nobody shows off. In this episode I share what I actually see when I look at Swedish culture from the inside: its values, its contradictions, and what I hope it manages to keep as the world pushes it to change.

    Un episodio donde reflexiono desde mi experiencia personal sobre qué significa realmente la cultura sueca.

    I det här avsnittet får du en tydlig och modern tolkning av Senecas femte brev till sin vän Lucilius.

  • Seneca's Letter 5: Stop Performing Your Virtue

    Two thousand years ago, Seneca wrote to his friend Lucilius with a warning that feels more relevant than ever: don't confuse self-improvement with self-promotion. The philosopher who walks around with dirty hair and a messy beard to signal his rejection of materialism is just performing — the opposite of what philosophy is for. In this episode I read and reflect on Seneca's fifth letter, which is really about one thing: the difference between genuinely living your values and putting them on display for others.

  • #36 - Tretton kulturkrockar i Sverige (Swedish)

    En ärlig och rolig inblick i de svenska vanor som mest förvånar utlänningar: att ta av sig skorna, äta varm gröt till frukost eller njuta av tystnaden. En blandning av humor, reflektion och kulturmöte.
