Name:<\/strong> Leo<\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong> 42<\/p>\n

Residence:<\/strong> Kungs\u00f6r<\/p>\n

Origin:<\/strong> Romania<\/p>\n

How did you come to drive a truck?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My father was a truck driver, plus I wanted to contribute to Sweden. Starting a business provides the opportunity to create jobs and a service or product.<\/p>\n

A bonus is that I really get to see Sweden. Not just as a tourist, which helps me to get a more realistic view of the country, and not just walk between work, ICA and some other things.<\/p>\n

What are the challenges and benefits of being your own boss:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I still ask myself that question. When you come to a country where you don’t know the language at first, you are constantly learning things. Not only about language, but also how things work. I have also learned how to run my own business and all that it entails.<\/p>\n

What did you do before:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Army<\/p>\n

Is there anything in particular that you like about Mantum:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes! I like the way Mantum tries to meet everyone’s needs.<\/p>\n

Future plans:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Be happy every day. Try to be a better person and learn how to be helpful to my fellow human beings.<\/p>\n

Other interests:<\/strong> Reading books on philosophy, agriculture and self-development. I learn things about myself every day. Or listen to books, as I drive all day.<\/p>\n

Fun facts:<\/strong> I’m still learning how to live, which is fun. There is no school in the world that teaches it.<\/p>\n

Dream car: <\/strong>I already drive a new Scania. It is my dream car. But I would have liked to have a low-loading trailer coupled behind it.<\/p>\n

Name: Leo <\/span><\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong> 42 <\/span><\/p>\n

Place of living:<\/strong> Kungs\u00f6r<\/span><\/p>\n

Origin:<\/strong> Romania <\/span><\/p>\n

How did you start with the truck driving business:<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

My father was a truck driver. Plus, I wanted to contribute to Sweden. Creating a business gives one possibility to create jobs and offer a service, a product. Bonus: I get to really see Sweden, not like a tourist. Which, helped me to make a more realistic impression about the country, rather than just go to work, come home, ICA, and some surroundings. <\/span><\/p>\n

What’s the challenges and good things about being your own boss:<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

I would ask all these and add, when moving to a new country where one doesn’t speak the language. Everyday is a lesson, constantly learning new things, not only about the swedish language. Good things. Opportunity to build a business and know everything about it. <\/span><\/p>\n

What did you do before:<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

Army. <\/span><\/p>\n

Is there anything special you like about Mantum:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes! Mantum’s dedication to fulfill everybody’s needs. <\/span><\/p>\n

Future plans:<\/strong> Be happier everyday! Try to be a better person and learn how to be more helpful in relation with others. <\/span><\/p>\n

Other interests:<\/strong> reading books, but more audiobooks since i drive a lot. philosophy, agriculture, and me. i find new things about me everyday. Fun fact about yourself: I learn everyday how to live, which is fun, since no school on Earth teaches you how to do it. <\/span><\/p>\n

Dream truck:<\/strong> I drive a new Scania, this is already my dream truck. But, maybe, a combo with a lowbed removable gooseneck<\/span><\/p>\n
