So many happy memories and one or two scary ones - remember that ferry? There's something positive even in those moments, they made us bond more. Our neighbors fikas at thr eko Park & you & seppe climbing trees around uppsala. Our dinners in my kitchen & lots of great events. To many more to come! ❤️🥳

I never expected that Jesper will be my best friend one day, because we had so many arguments in the early beginning (as we live in the same dorm). At some point we didn't even talk for more than a month. But then I realized that we can communicate very well even when we have conflicts.
we didn't become close friends easily, as they say: easy come easy go. But our friendship is getting stronger everytime we talk.

Actually there are alot of moments that I could call best moments with Jesper, but I will mention two of them here, maybe later I could tell the others (if my memory help :D) :
first one is that Jesper gave me the best Birthday gift ever. He and Thi were in Germany for almost a month and they just arrived Uppsala on my Birthday, even though he was exhausted but we met. We had a very nice and warm conversation and I felt so happy to have such a friend that makes me feel in peace, so the gift was a nice talk, but it means alot to me.
the second one: we were in the bonfire last September with many friends. Suddenly he just came and said to the people around us that Hosam is my best friend. I was so happy to hear that even though I know that we are best friends 🙂.

Happy Birthday my best friend.
Hosam

Hej Jesper! Even though we just met recently, I hold you really high as a person and human being. Thanks to you organizing these camping adventures I've met some really nice people and I've discovered beautiful places. Sometimes I need a little help to go outside and discover my life around and people like you really force me out of my comfort zone, and for that I'm extremely thankful. I hope you have a nice birthday  and I hope during my stay here in Uppsala we can become really close. You are the kind of person that brings the best of everyone around.

My best memory with you has to be swimming in that fucking cold water, for sure.

Moltes felicitats,

Aleix

Immer wenn wir miteinander reden entdecken wir mehr Gemeinsamkeiten, was für dich sogar noch überraschender ist als für mich, da du die Gemeinsamkeiten immer wieder vergisst!
Aber abgesehen von der Freunde, wenn wir noch eine Gemeinsamkeit entdecken, haben wir auch schon einige tiefgründigere Gespräche, in der kurzen Zeit die wir uns kennen, geführt. Und jedes Mal fande ich deine Ansichten und Geschichten sehr interessant und ich freue mich schon darauf dein Leben und dein Weltwelt noch besser zu verstehen. Doch ich habe auf jeden Fall jetzt schon festgestellt, dass ich deine Offenheit und generelle Einstellung zum Leben sehr beeindruckend finde. Du hast neulich gesagt, dass du alles was du machen kannst auch machen musst und tatsächlich setzt du dies auch sehr oft um. In Kombination mit deinen vielen verrückten Ideen kann man nicht anders als Spaß haben, wenn du dabei bist!
Ich hoffe das ich mich von deinen Ideen in Zukunft mit herrausfordern lassen kann und wir noch viele weitere Erlebnisse zusammen werden.
Grattis på födelsedagen!!!
Ella

The funniest moment I had with you is the first time I met you when I was doing my project with Hosam (you can guess who I am already). You said a lot and was chill and funny. And when Hosam said I know Thi, suddenly everything is not important for you anymore =)).
Although I am not a party person and it takes a long time for me to get close to people, I appreciate every event you hold.
Pretty much every party there was Jesper
He is
The inevitable
He can be many things
But boring is not one of them.

Even though we’ve met not that long ago there’s already so many memories! Jesper, you are the life and soul of the party. All my best moments in Uppsala so far are connected with your events - you just bring people together! I wish you all the best and that you never change no matter what. Happiest birthday and remember - always think outside of the box!

It was quite unexpected that I would meet someone like Jesper and even more so that we would become friends. But it has definitely been one of the most giving friendships I've ever had where I have learned a lot of things about myself and met a lot of interesting people. Jesper has helped me open up and to talk more openly and honestly about things. There has been so many fun moments with Jesper that I don't know where to start. From dangerous partying on the roof of a mining tower and throwing ridiculously big parties to swimming naked in a freezing cold lake and playing games around bonfires. I've had a great time knowing him and hope to be friends for a long long time!

/Love

Hey Jesper, ich bin froh, dass Du ein Teil unserer Familie bist und zu unserem Leben dazu gehörst.
Mit Dir haben wir viele viele lustige und interessante Momente erlebt und auch die Gespräche mit Dir sind immer konstruktiv.
Eines der lustigsten Momente mit Dir war, als wir an Silvester zur Kiellinie gingen, Du Dich nackt ausgezogen hast, um dann fröhlich durch die Menge fremder Menschen zu rennen und zu rufen "frohes neues Jahr!"

Alles alles Liebe zum Geburtstag, Jesper! Bleib wie Du bist, und genieße das Leben :-)

The happiest moment with Jesper... I should be honest and say that I don't know Jesper that long, so for me picking a memorable moment was quite easy 😜
I know it may sound strange, but the best moment was when we met for the first time. Imagine me: a newcomer, just a week or two in the city, who doesn't know anybody and get lost everywhere she goes. A newcomer who doesn't expect much from Uppsala: Scandinavia is an unfriendly place, people told me, people there wouldn't like to make friends with you.
Keeping that in mind, I nevertheless decided to give local parties a shot, and and went to a bonfire meeting my university buddy, Rocky, invited me to. We (my friend whom I invited to go therw with me, and I) arrived late, when the party was in full swing, and when it was so dark and cold that sitting close to a bonfire became a necessity.
When we were approaching, some guy  started screaming: 'Hide your booze, it might be a police!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
This tall man in fancy red pants who just yelled that  was moving from person to person persuading them to hide their drinks, obviously. This suspicious guy was Jesper.
I didn't come up with anything better than just screaming back: 'It's alright, we're not the police!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
Seemed like he didn't believe us, as he still tried to hide alcohol while we were approaching. When we finally came closer, Jesper looked a little bit anxious and asked us who we were and who invited us. I remember I thought at that moment that he wasn't very friendly, and while replying I couldn't help but thought: 'We bothered these people. OK, just not our type of a company, shell we go?' But by the moment I stopped speaking, the expression on Jesper's face had already changed from 'who the fuck r u' to 'oh nice nice nice more people new people please come have a sit join us' (actually he then said something like that, so I didn't just read it on his face 😅).
So to me the most striking moment in this story is that very change: from suspicion to realisation and then... to curiosity, I would say.
Jesper seated with us, started chatting and telling us about local parties and people. The way he accepted us - so easily, so openly - was even shocking (but the most shocking thing though was that he remembered me a week after, haha).
Jesper is a very easy-going person, and that is why perhaps I feel so comfortable spending time with him (ok-ok, and with dozens of people he always invites to any event 😅).

Jesper, you're an amazing guy, and I believe you're moving in a right direction in your life! Keep doing that and stay this cool 4ever. Happy b-day!

xx, Nastja

I remember first meeting Jesper in May 19. It was a get-together to get to know each other before working at the cultural carnival. I wasn't sure about volunteering but I met a couple of people at this rendezvous.  Jesper was one of them. We hit it off pretty good instantly. This was back when I still had my native middle-eastern name. Jesper was the only one who actually bothered to learn the correct pronunciation.  At that moment I decided to become a carnie aswell. I could have told you about the very eccentric things I've seen from Jesper. But sometimes , it is the very small things that you remember the most. Happy birthday bro. All the best!! I 🥳🥳🥳 /Eder

I haven't known you for that long, but during this short time I've ha a lot of fun during all the adventures you arrange. I'm very thankful to you as I've had lots of fun during these and have met a lot of new friends. You are an awesome people magnet! Keep up the good work!

We had so much fun on our trip to Helsinki! The best part was everybody bonding on the way back despite the boat falling apart on the inside!
I took that picture while we were all up on the top deck listening to music and enjoying the frigid air.

Jesper has decided he was just going to lay down and I though it was funny. /Haley

Lots of great memories and moments. I was lucky to share a few trips with you and those are some of the best trips in my life. Thank you for being such an awesome human being. Hope we have a chance to do something fun soon!
Best wishes!

Most of my crazy and best moments in Uppsala are with this man. Maybe the number is not that great but you need to consider when a super hard person to drag into a party met with the party maker. Now you know my name Jesper  :). Thanks from my heart for giving those moments.
Wishing you the chain explosions of energy !!!

I had the honour of sharing the corridor with you for half a year, seeing you unfreezing frozen pizzas every single day and having philosophical conversations analyzing your personality in the kitchen. The best experience was probably Kulturernas Karneval!

All the best!

We met at the SLU library for the first time. You were reading "Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath and I remember I asked you very personal question and later I realized that it was very impolite :p. Fortunately, I head many many happy moments with you. first of all, I have to mention our unforgettable hiking to Lunsen, where we stayed in a hut.  We where dancing around the fire, wild and free and It was sooo good. I also miss that evenings with you and Trang. We had nice time together: Talking about different topics and watching movies. Especially, I want to say a big thank for staying at my place when I had injuries.

I wish you a lifetime happiness  and hope to see you and Thi soon again.

Warmest greetings from Georgia,
Keti

The first ‘conversation‘ with you was just a chat on facebook, eventually transferred to telegram messenger, in which we were bouncing back and forward dinner ideas for the hiking night. When we finally made it to the Hut, and you saved Vincent, you asked for coffee. So, I gave you the cheapest instant coffee that they sell at ICA. And you seemed quite happy about it. Well, to be honest, you did not show much emotional response in that moment. At that point, you did not know that this would be a longer night than expected for you. When I joined you at the fire the next morning, you just looked at me and said that we would have to talk about my instant coffee. Something must have been wrong with it. You stayed up until 4am, studying biology on your phone… I am not going to say “Sorry” for offering you instant coffee on that Saturday night, but I am going to say that I must invite you for a real coffee at some point soon. Because you deserve a good coffee experience with Zoë.

Enjoy this upcoming year and maybe don’t drink too much instant coffee at 10pm.

Windy wishes!

It hasn't been long since we first met but this period has some of the most interesting moments of my otherwise tedious year. I reached you after your soccer advertisements (let me repeat, really great idea!) out of utmost boredom and the activities you organise really saved me from that. I won't forget the fun at the party and the hike, and our breakfast talk where you revealed some of your bigger plans for the future, and importantly, the Carcassonne victory I had following the path you led! To me you are this warm-hearted person with an admirable commitment to make people around you happy by bringing them together and really trying to connect with them individually. Wish you a very happy birthday and let's have more fun in the future!

Ich weiß ehrlich gesagt nicht Wirklich was ich hier überhaupt schreiben könnte. Bisher war jeder Moment mit dir lustig. Vor allem die Spiele-Abende waren immer schön. Auch wenn du uns in Risiko immer mit deiner Würfel-Taktik komplett zerstörst, macht es trotzdem Spaß. Schade das wir den "Kanal" am Strand nicht mehr hinbekommen haben, aber das Zerstören hat auch richtig gebockt.

Hey man! We have only met once but then we made the best moon cakes this world has seen. I admire your drive and how you instigate a lot of things. Looking forward to meeting you again!

Habe echt glück gehabt, dich als Mitbewohner bekommen zu haben. Du besitzt die perfekte Mischung zwischen nett, erfinderisch und dazu ein wenig Verrücktheit. Weiter so!!! Freue mich schon darauf dich noch besser kennen zu lernen.

Vincent här. Jesper, grattis, och tack för att du räddade mig undan de hungriga vargarna i Lunsenskogen. Tack dessutom för alla andra galna upptåg. Eldfesten och Lunsenhajken har förgyllt min höst och förhoppningsvis kommer nästa hajk också att göra det. Lovar att inte gå vilse.

Thanks for rowing me around Gullmarsfjorden when we took our first Biology course together in 2017. It was a great experience,  and I was glad to be there to document you jumping off the row-boat and climbing towards the sky as if you were were Bear Grylls himself (picture in another post).
Many hugs to you!

I am really happy and glad to met you next semester, at your campfire.

I think you are not so far in my best memories of this semester, campfire, hiking, biking and swimming, midsummer.... Specially the midnight swimming on the river and in the lake at Ramhall.

Keep your grain of madness. You are a wonderful people :)

We have had many great moments together, but if I had to choose one, it would be the time where you conveyed me enough courage and determination to play a piano song dedicated to you in front of everyone at the Open mic event at Kalmar. I realised that we should take every small opportunity that life gives us to make it a bit more fun, just as you would do. Happy birthday!
P.S. Made you this

We knew each other in the summertime 2019, Uppsala Cultural Carnival.

Endless networks follow from such a single and little move, and that makes me truly believe,

Let people carry us is maybe not a bad idea; however among people including myself,

Only a few can really see through this secret and dare to do it.

Visionary and brave are you as a host, local, friend, or simply just being an honest person,

Every time.

Jesper you remind me of Pipi Långstrump.
Everyone finds something enjoyable in spending time with you and the group you form.
Strangeness is transformed into friendliness as long as we are willing to be involved in this group where
People from all over the world and backgrounds contribute themselves to shape the dynamics just by being there.
Even if you might not be aware of this or intend to do so in the beginning, but you have brought us countless happy moments,
Regardless of the time limitation we have ever have in Uppsala.

# data[].attributes.body
We only know since a few weeks, but I really like how positive and always full of energy and fun ideas you are. Taking a picture of everybody right after waking up at the hiking trip resulted in some awkward pictures but also everybody starting the day with a smile :)
Stay this active, motivated and happy!! I am looking forward to getting to know you better and many more great memories.

A sunny summer Sunday that started as a casual hang-out in the park, evolving into a day of food fighting, a very politically incorrect bi
ke trip and swim in Fyrisån - followed up by an evening clouded in the thick fog of alcohol and a hangover so bad I called in sick at work..

Stort Grattis på födelsedagen Jesper!
Can't imagine life wirhout you.You are the best thing in my life. I love to think back to our travelling to Prague...it was exciting and wonderful.
You are a very crazy, funny and wonderful person.
Wisch all the best for you.

Jesper! We’ve only known each other a few weeks but since our first miscommunication at the library help desk I’ve come to realise that you’re one of the coolest guys in town. You’re always such an inclusive and positive force of energy, making sure everyone is involved in whatever crazy activity you have planned for us. Looking forward to many more dances, fireside games and adventures ✨

We only just met, but already you have been in so many nice moments. The whole Lunsentorpet cabin trip was great, but waking up in the morning and finding you and the others by the fire, un-murdered by the shouty person was pretty nice.
