"That's cute that you and Tom grew up together. Your younger brother sounds like a load of fun! I'm sure he and the bands will get on like a house on fire."
At the mention of Robert being more of a rural man this pleased the Swede who grew up with tribal people himself away from the hustle and bustle of the bigger cities. This was until his parents moved to gain better jobs as actors in Stockholm. Then Erik and his brother had to adapt to a new more modern lifestyle.
"I grew up in a city called Kiruna. We were amongst tribal people known as the Saami. Aarne's people. We were less tribal than those in neighbouring Finland but we were still taught the old ways from our ancestors. How to hunt, fish and survive off the land where everything is made of ice throughout most of the year. You learnt or you died of starvation. My father used to take me out ice fishing at 5am every morning to get our breakfast. Hunter, the lazy tik---bitch, he always laid in bed until 8 when all the fish had left the fishing hole. I was the one to get our breakfast. My brother did help around the house though and my mother was grateful for that."
Erik smiled thinking about his life with his people before they moved to the bright lights of the city.
"Then, when I was about 7 we moved to Stockholm. My parents are actors now, famous ones. They are in Swedish language films and adult movies."
