I’m Krikko from Swedish Lapland.
I spend most of my time outside. I ride out, find a place, and stay there through the night. Alone.
In 2025, I finished a two year solo motorcycle journey from Sweden to Nepal, riding through Europe, the Middle East, Pakistan and India.
Now I’m back home in the north, doing it in a different way.
Colder. Quieter. More real.
I create videos where I push myself beyond my comfort zone and show it as it is.
The fear. The doubt. The parts most people avoid.
“If you want something in life, go out and grab it. No one will do it for you.”
The thought of riding all the way from Sweden to Nepal. Up in the mountains in Vietnam, something clicked…
When I was younger, I was shy and afraid of most things.
But I grew up riding mopeds back home. Old retro ones. I was always out riding, without thinking too much about it.
After finishing university in 2014, I left Sweden and started traveling. I spent time in Australia and New Zealand, and somewhere along the way, something shifted.
In 2016, I traveled to Vietnam. That’s where I bought my first motorcycle. It was a Honda Win, and it broke down all the time. But that was part of it. You fixed it, figured it out, and kept going. There were mechanics everywhere. It became a game.
It was the first time I rode a motorcycle abroad. A small one. 100cc.
I didn’t have much experience, so I had to learn everything along the way.
It wasn’t comfortable travel. At times, I slept in abandoned buildings or outside supermarkets, simply because that’s what the situation required. It taught me how to adapt, trust my decisions, and handle uncertainty in real time.
The idea stayed with me. Life got in the way for a while. More travel, other plans. Then covid hit, and I ended up back home. That’s when I started saving. Everything went into one goal.
In 2023, I left.
Over the next two years, I rode alone through Europe, the Middle East, Pakistan and India. Along the way, I met people who helped me again and again. That changed how I see the world.
In 2025, I reached Nepal.
I learned a lot about fear.
Courage isn’t about not being afraid. It’s about doing it anyway.
I wanted to challenge myself, explore parts of the world beyond the usual safe routes, including the Middle East, and step outside my comfort zone to do something I had been dreaming about for years.
That’s the direction I keep choosing. The one that pushes me outside my comfort zone, even when fear is there.

At 23, I completed my master’s degree in Earth Sciences, fully set on beginning a research career. Right after graduating, I traveled to Australia for fieldwork, planning to return home and start my PhD. But life had a different plan waiting for me.
Once my research work was done, I decided to explore a little longer—and that “little” turned into a full adventure across Australia, New Zealand, and then India. Somewhere between mountains, deserts, and crowded streets, I realized my passion wasn’t buried in scientific papers—it was out there in the world.
So I stepped away from the PhD path and chose to continue exploring. Within a few months, I found myself in Indonesia with almost no money left, but with a mind full of clarity. I flew back to Australia, worked as an exploration geologist to rebuild my savings, and kept chasing the road that truly felt like mine.
That decision changed everything—and my adventure hasn’t stopped since.
