Dr. Carl Reinhold Augustsson

Carl is a professor, a writer, and a world traveler.  He was born in the United States in 1977 to a mother from the US and a father from Sweden.  His wife is Georgian.  As a result, he has citizenship in all three countries, and by extension, the European Union.  He has lived in all three of his countries, plus five others.  In addition, he has travelled to a total of 120 countries on six continents, including every country in Europe.  As for his ethnic background, he is a mixture of a number of different European nationalities, including Swedish, Dutch, German, French, Basque, Spanish, English, Scottish, Manx, Irish, and Welsh.  In addition to travel, Carl’s biggest passions are academics and languages.  He has earned four Master’s Degrees and a PhD in subjects such as International Studies, Political Science, and English Philology.  He has taught classes in subjects such as English, History, and Political Science at academic levels ranging from junior high school to Master’s degree. As for languages, he is a strong supporter of trying to save as many of the world’s smaller languages, especially the Celtic ones, as possible.  Indeed, he takes an online class every week from the Isle of Man in the Manx language, which is enjoying a notable revival.  Carl has studied 27 different European languages in some capacity, though he can’t speak them all.  His goal is to learn most of the languages of Europe to at least to B1, or bare minimum A2 level.  Carl has recently transcribed the entire 1917 Swedish Bible into the Runic alphabet, and has written a travel book about Georgia.  He has also made the same short travel video about Tbilisi in over 60 languages. Carl splits his time between his three countries and world travel.

by
The “Hawk Tua” Girl

In the past month, a short clip of a young woman saying “hawk tuah” has gone viral. As a men’s rights advocate, I was asked by a fellow men’s rights advocate to write a short article about my thoughts on this. The first thing I wanted to mention, is the intactivism element.  Indeed, I am on … Read more
