Fredrik: There's No Place Like Sweden

Fredrik is high kicking happy to be in Sweden and hopes his BFF Anna will make his dreams of fatherhood a reality. 

By Fredrik Eklund

Sweeeeeeden, where the air is fresh, cold, clean and full of love. Love because this is where I'm from, and to be able to hug my family and tell them how I miss them is the best feeling in the world. Watching this episode myself, I looked at the screen and it's almost like I could see the difference in me -- in my face. I just look so glowing and happy to be with Derek and my family all at once. I feel safe and cared for, like that little boy who left Sweden 13 years ago. As hard as New York real estate can be, it's always nice to come home to Stockholm and realize I haven't changed after all, I'm still sweet Fredrik with my heart in the right place.

Taking Care of the Most Important Business of All

And then my offices; they run really well today without my micromanagement. I started the company five years ago, this very week, and I'm writing this on a flight to Stockholm to celebrate our anniversary with a huge party. I feel so proud of what we have been able to accomplish in every market we have entered, a profitably company with multiple offices and more importantly and great TEAM with kind yet determined energy. And all the record sales. 

I used to ski all the time, but moving to New York to do real estate made me forget how beautiful it can be. To be one with nature, and all that pure snow. There is something so refreshing to be alone on a mountain, it's my meditative moment. My dream is to go dog sledding though, and perhaps that's what I need to do to really convince Ylva, the buyer, that this house is the perfection one for her. Because when you buy a house in Åre, you also buy a lot of priceless winter wonderland amenities with it. 

Anna is my best friend in the entire world. I love her more than life itself. We have been discussing her being the egg donor for a while, so of course I am really nervous now to finally sit down. Whatever happens, is meant to happen, Derek tells me. I hope he is right. All I know is that Milla is supposed to happen, actually I feel she is suppose to be happen like right now, and the sooner the better so we can become the fathers we have dreamt of for so long to our little baby girl.
