About

My name is Bettina Marlene Bettenhausen, I am a journalist from Sweden and for the last 20 years I have reported from abroad, home to Sweden. During these years I have been stationed in Berlin, with an editorial office and home there. As a foreign correspondent I travel all over the world and report on occurrences and recount life stories of people I meet. During long time spans I have, among others, had the privilege to work and reside in Afghanistan. Apart from Afghanistan, America, Germany and France are some of my principal countries of coverage.

This homepage is a place where I share my thoughts on creativity and on people, ideas and things that inspire me. For my general journalistic work please visit my homepage bettinabettenhausen.com I am passionate about the creative process, whether it is writing, singing, painting or expressing oneself in other ways.

I am also a huge fan of all things vintage – whether movies or design – especially from the 30s, 40s and 70s!
