Eric Östergren
Archaeologist
I am a 30 year old archaeologist. I work at The Viking Museum, and co-host the two podcasts Mytologipodden and Vikingapodden. I grew up in Norrtälje, a little bit north of Stockholm, and spend as much time as possible in northern Roslagen, but now live in Midsommarkransen. I draw and paint when the inspiration strikes, and begin various projects (as I am writing I am sitting with a package I just collected, containing 9,5kg of flint stone).
