Haunted Sewing Machine!? Daily Vlog from a Vegan Content Creator in Stoc...

In today’s vlog, things take a seriously weird turn—and not in a cute way 😳 I had to literally pull the plug on my DIY suitcase project when my sewing machine powered itself ON with a mind of its own. Cue horror movie moment 🎬🔌😨

This is a slice of my creative, chaotic everyday life. I live in Midsommarkransen (Kransen, if you're local!), where I juggle my job in musical theatre with content creation across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube—posting daily updates from my quirky routines, vegan lifestyle, and backstage adventures 🎭🌱💻

🎥 In this episode, you'll join me as I:

• Edit & upload my Instagram Stories across all platforms (with the usual 5000-character finesse!) 🧠📲
• Post the oldest photo on my iPhone and delete it forever as part of my daily nostalgic ritual 🖼️🗑️
• Get creeped out when my sewing machine starts running by itself (no joke—it was OFF and unplugged, then suddenly ON again 😵‍💫)
• Run errands all over Stockholm—because even chaotic days need cute homewares and skincare essentials:
▫️ Pick up a gorgeous banana leaf plate from H&M Home 🍃
▫️ Retrieve a CeraVe oil-control product via Instabox in Årsta 💧
▫️ Shop silver rings at H&M Men—because rings are my power accessories 💍
▫️ Collect a dreamy Giambattista Valli x H&M designer handbag via VINTED 👜 (secondhand and fabulous!)

👕🎭 As a costume supervisor, I live and breathe backstage theatre life: steaming, stitching, rigging quick changes—often in the dark! But outside of work, I’m a plant-based, bike-riding Stockholm guy who’s passionate about:

• Vegan living & conscious consumption 🌱
• Secondhand style & designer collaborations 🛍️
• Editing videos with intention and humour 💻
• Sharing authentic, aesthetic daily vlogs—even the slightly ridiculous ones 💫
• Spotlighting real life at the intersection of theatre, fashion, and influencer culture 🎭👔📸

📱 My channel documents the small stuff that makes up a creative life—like morning edits in bed, a latte on the balcony under fake wisteria, or the thrill of deleting one ancient iPhone pic per day. It’s my self-made nostalgia machine—and you're always welcome to ride along 🚲📷✨

Today’s oldest iPhone photo? You’ll have to watch to find out—but trust me, it’s a throwback 🙈

⚙️ And yes, my sewing machine scene is 100% real. Has your tech ever done something truly unsettling? Or maybe you have your own daily digital ritual to stay grounded or creative? Drop your story in the comments—I love hearing how other creators and theatre nerds live their everyday lives 📣

A Day in My Life: Theatre, Midori Cocktails, and a Surprising Noodle Hac...

Ever wondered what a day in the life of a Swedish theatre content creator looks like? 🎭🇸🇪 From editing videos and uploading nostalgic iPhone photos to mixing Midori cocktails and cooking up surprisingly good meals — this vlog has it all!

📱 My day starts with editing yesterday’s Instagram stories, syncing the video across all my social media outlets (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts), and uploading a nostalgic gem — the oldest photo on my iPhone. I share it, then erase it from my phone, making space for fresh memories 📸✨.

🚴‍♂️ Then it’s time to bike to ICA at Liljeholmstorgets Galleria for vegan groceries. Lucky me, instant noodles and tomatoes are on SALE! 🍜🍅 I get curious: Can you combine them into something tasty? (Spoiler alert: You absolutely can!)

🧳 Back home, it’s suitcase time. We’re heading out on tour soon, so I pull my giant silver Samsonite from under the bed. It’s dusty — like desert-level dusty. Cue the pre-tour chaos! 🎭🌍

🍸 Since it's May, my friend Magnus and I celebrate what we call MayDori — a month of Midori-based cocktails. Today’s star: the JAPANESE SLIPPER 💚 (1 part Midori, 1 part Cointreau, 1 part lemon juice). I FaceTime Magnus and he’s created an Emerald Isle cocktail, and even gone a step further — writing TWO Midori-themed songs on Suno.com 🎶✨.

🥂 Naturally, I try an Emerald Isle myself. Spoiler: it’s AMAZING. And speaking of surprising culinary wins, I mix those instant noodles with chopped tomatoes... and it’s a game-changer. Who knew simple ingredients could spark such joy?

🎵 Finally, I relax with the AI-enhanced Paper Mill Playhouse production of Crazy For You. A perfect ending for a theatre-loving soul like me.

🏡 I live in Midsommarkransen, a suburb of Stockholm, and work as a dresser and costume supervisor at a musical theatre. I create daily content about backstage life, style, vegan food, and everyday creativity.

Daily Vlog: Vegan Brunch, Emotional Moving Day & IKEA Build | Life in St...

In this fun and real-life vlog, I take you behind the scenes of my daily content creator routine as a male vlogger and influencer based in Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪. First up: my signature start to every day—editing yesterday’s Instagram Stories into a slick new video 🎬 and prepping it for ALL my social media outlets. I upload the final cut, write the description, and keep up my quirky tradition: posting my oldest iPhone pic 📸 (today’s? Stay tuned!) before erasing it forever to keep things ✨ fresh and nostalgic.

Brunch is served 🍽️: crusty baguette with vegan hotdogs 🌭 + tangy sauerkraut while soaking up the (chilly!) May sunshine ☀️ on my Midsommarkransen balcony. Then it’s off to help my friend Ulf: we move 6 heavy boxes full of family memories ❤️ down to his basement storage—his parents sadly passed away (Covid 😢 + soon after), leaving behind photos, heirlooms, old chairs, and SIX massive suitcases. Somehow, we squeezed it all in!

After the heavy lifting, we switch gears and tackle an IKEA assembly 🛠️ project: a sleek metal bookshelf... for his collection of EMPTY flowerpots 😂🌿. Yup, no flowers—just pots. Bonus trivia? Ulf’s got asthma 😬 (I thought he was just super out of shape—oops!).

To say thanks, Ulf treats me to a vegan 🍔 burger and crinkle fries at Bastard Burgers 😋. He even gifts me a stunning Diane von Furstenberg 🪴 flowerpot (originally 800 SEK 💸!) and drives a carload of goodies to my apartment while I bike home 🚴‍♂️.

What if a bathtub could hold every chapter of your life’s story? 🛁✨

That’s exactly the thought that hit me when I stumbled across the oldest photo on my iPhone, taken January 27, 2025. It’s a quiet, personal snapshot: my bathtub in Midsommarkransen, Stockholm, filled to the brim with a foamy bubble bath, and perched right on the edge—a little mystery citrus plant. 🍋🍊🍈

This isn’t just any plant. Every time I cut into a lemon, lime, or orange, I save the seeds and plant them, always curious what might grow. 🌱 This one? Still a mystery, but it’s thriving. Like so many small rituals in my life, it’s a little experiment in patience and surprise.

Bathtubs have always been my personal sanctuary. One of my earliest memories is of being plopped into a big plastic basin (to me, it felt massive!) in my mom’s bathroom, above my grandparents' bakery. 🥖 The air was warm with soap bubbles, and I remember hearing my mother nearby in the next room—comforting, safe. Another treasured memory: staying at my grandparents’ hotel 🏨, where my grandfather prepared my bath with so much bubble bath that I nearly disappeared beneath the foam. His face, peeking in to check on me, beaming at my joy—those moments stick with you.

Today, my bathtub is still that sacred space. It’s where I go to relax after a long shift at the theatre, where I dream up new content ideas, where I let the noise of the world fade away. 💭

 Baths are more than water—they’re a ritual, a reset button, a time machine of sorts. This photo might look simple, but for me, it captures layers of comfort, nostalgia, and quiet joy.

Today’s flashback made me laugh out loud 😂—memories really live in our pockets, don’t they? Living here in Midsommarkransen 🌸🏡, a cozy suburb to Stockholm 🇸🇪, and working as a dresser and costume supervisor 🎭🎩 keeps my days colorful and creative 🎨!  

Everyday life = vlogging 📹, vegan cooking 🥦🍝, theatre magic 🎟️✨, and chasing that perfect style moment 👔✨. Posting daily videos is my way to share this journey with you all 🤝❤️. 

And speaking of journeys... a special birthday surprise 🎉🎁 from Magnus had me outside Fotografiska 🖼️📷 (their gift shop is AMAZING—resisted buying everything 🙈🛍️). Just when I thought we were museum-bound... nope! We hopped on a blue double-decker bus 🚌💙🍷, Easter eggs filled with vegan candy 🍬🥜 in hand, heading toward adventure!

Destination: Gustavsbergs Porslinsmuseum 🏛️💫 to see the Gunnar G:son Wennerberg exhibition 🎨—a legendary Swedish artist whose dreamy stage designs and art shaped a whole era! 🌟🖌️ Seriously, what a perfect day.  

Stay tuned for more daily uploads 🎥✨ and more throwback moments 🚀💖! What’s your favorite way to relive old memories? 📲💬

What if every old photo was a portal to a perfect summer day? ☀️📸

Have you ever scrolled all the way back to the very first photo on your phone and suddenly felt sand between your toes again? 🏖️📱 This is the oldest photo on my iPhone – taken on August 11, 2024, at Sandby Strand on the eastern coast of Öland. A calm, sunny day with a cobalt blue sky, playful white clouds, and my friend Ulf by my side 🌤️🕶️

We were on a little excursion, just me and Ulf, with my cousin Carina driving us there 🚗💨. We were visiting my parents and decided to explore this beautiful, slightly hidden part of the island. The beach was quiet, almost empty, with just a few large flat rocks scattered across the sand 🌊🪨

Ulf – in black sandals, tan shorts, and a light blue short-sleeved shirt – stands with the sun at his back, smiling behind his sunglasses 😎👕 Carina, wearing a black sleeveless dress and tights, walks along the shore, her hair caught in the breeze 👗🌬️

This photo captures more than just a moment – it captures the feeling of summer freedom, simplicity, and friendship ❤️☀️🧡

There’s something magical about old photos: they remind us who we were, who we are, and how every moment – no matter how simple – is worth remembering 📷💭

What if Time Never Moved?

Some photos capture more than just a moment—they capture a lifetime of friendship. 📸✨ This is the oldest photo on my phone, taken on August 9, 2024, in the quiet village of Mörbylånga on Öland. It features my friend Ulf, dressed in a white t-shirt and a beige hoodie, his grey hair and beard glowing in the dim streetlights. 🌙🌾  

We had just arrived to stay with my parents for a couple of nights and went out for a walk through the village's dark, sleepy streets. 🚶‍♂️🌌 Mörbylånga is the kind of place where time seems to slow down—perfect for nostalgia.  

Ulf and I go way back. 📜 In the late ’80s, we were in the same amateur theatre group, and in the early ’90s, we both studied at Teaterverkstan in Stockholm, though I was a class ahead. 🎭🎓 But our true glory days? The ’90s club scene. 💃🕺 Ulf had an apartment in the city, and I spent countless nights there after dancing until dawn. Those were the days of loud music, neon lights, and endless energy. 🎶🌆  

Now, decades later, here we are. Life has changed, but our friendship hasn’t. 🌿💛 Sometimes, a simple walk on a quiet street can feel just as significant as a night out in a crowded club.

HOW I GOT STARTED WRITING A MUSICAL…

Editing yesterday’s stories ☕️💻, then texting Magnus 📱 to see if we should FaceTime later. But first—chaos control! Organizing my walk-in wardrobe 👔👗 and saying goodbye to a sideboard 📦 (down to the basement it goes!). Podcasts on 🎧, and suddenly… everything is *perfectly* organized 😍. Well, except for the stuff that doesn’t belong anywhere 🤦‍♂️.  

Time to write a musical 🎭! Heard about King James I 👑, so I asked ChatGPT for help 🤓. Turns out, his life is perfect for a show—drama, intrigue, and a few *fabulous* male favorites 👀✨. Song ideas are flowing, and thanks to Suno.com 🎶, this is really *happening*!  

Spring is here 🌷 but wow, the wind is *aggressive* 💨. Then, FaceTime with Magnus 🥂—it's March, so we’re celebrating *Marchtini* 🍸. Because, obviously.  

Living my best life in Midsommarkransen, Stockholm 🏡✨, working as a dresser & costume supervisor at a theatre 🎭. Every day, I upload a new video 📹 + the oldest pic on my iPhone 📸 (then delete it—nostalgia with a twist!).  

👀 Watch till the end & tell me—what’s the weirdest thing *you’ve* ever decluttered? 🤔👇

HOW I GOT CONFUSED BY SABINA CARPENTER AND CHAPEL ROAN…

Starting the day with some ✨editing magic✨—yesterday's Instagram stories get polished for all my socials 🎬. But wait… wasn't I supposed to live off my pantry this month? 🥫😅 Turns out, I need a few essentials, so off to the store I go 🛒. Then, it’s time for some outdoor filming 🎥 capturing those perfect establishing shots of Midsommarkransen for March 🌆.  

Back home, it's cleaning mode activated 🧼—because a tidy space = a tidy mind 🧠✨. Music on, vibes set… but hold up, is this Sabrina Carpenter or Chappell Roan? 🎶😂 Turns out, my brain refuses to tell the difference today. Anyone else mix up artists like this? 🤷‍♂️  

🏡 Living that cozy apartment life in Midsommarkransen, Stockholm 🇸🇪 while working as a dresser & costume supervisor at a musical theatre 🎭. Every day, I upload a video 📱 and post the oldest pic from my iPhone before deleting it—keeping my feed fresh AND nostalgic 📸✨.
