    What kind of accent do you speak with?

    Despite being Swedish I generally speak with a bit of an Essex accent, or when I spend too much time with Americans my accent changes, I'm told I sound like I'm from Chicago or sometimes Canada, I wouldn't really know though. Hehe. No Swedish accent here though >8]

    Make up and Cosmetics

    I'm very fond of Bareminerals and Idun minerals - as little additives as possible, free from parabens and sulfates are a must - as studies have suggested the mentioned substances may contribute to different forms of cancers.

    Trip Plans For 2015

    I haven't had the chance to decide anything with 100% certainty, my uni offers a field course in archaeology (which I'm majoring in) so I'm waiting for more information on when exactly that is and I also don't know for sure what my economy will look like. But I frankly can't see myself NOT...

    Favourite Dark Rides

    I have a massive soft spot for storytelling and just absolutely adore Fata morgana and Droomvlucht for that reason, I also love Fata morgana for all the gorgeous vibrant colors in the palace part. I'm also very jumpy so when riding Blå Tåget at Grönalund I was probably screaming more than...

    Inside Top Hat vs Outside Top Hat

    Despite Helix being my favorite coaster I will have to go with the outside top hat, like Hyde said, that pop of airtime and a (hopefully) nice view are pretty neat sensations, however I do get a special rush in Helix's inverted top hat too. All in all outside top hats <3

    Orlando, Atlantic City, Vegas, etc. Skyscrapers | ThrillCorp

    Re: I Drive Orlando | Skyscraper| US Thrill Rides ^ Frankly I think lots of people are going to find it thrilling solely based on the height, particularly people who don't necessarily analyze coasters the way enthusiasts tend to do - that said I doubt it will carry its excitement and enjoyment...

    Most Intense Ride You've Ever Ridden

    Coaster - Negative intense: Condor at Walibi Holland, I hated every moment of it, it was shaky and uncomfortable and just absolutely terrifying, this was also my first experience with inverted coasters which resulted in me crying like a baby first time I was about to go on Black Mamba at...

    Your favorite underrated ride(s)?

    Colorado adventure at Phantasialand is definitely up there, so many just watch the POV vid and go "Meh" while it's actually fantastically fun and well themed! Xpress at Walibi (Holland) is another ride I absolutely love but I've heard so many others find it incredibly underwhelming.

    Good "first upside down coasters?"

    Like ThomVD said, I too would suggest Python at the Efteling or possibly Kanonen at Liseberg (despite lots of people saying it's rough and uncomfortable I couldn't agree less, this isn't something that I've ever experienced). If you're looking for an inverted one I'd say Black Mamba at...
