This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

The Emigrants : Karl-Oskar is a Swedish Geocoin 2007 Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

Karl-Oskar: Reunite with my wife Kristina and in the process of doing so:

Travel from cache to cache and find new friends and pick up stories from other emigrants with a connection to Sweden. So all you Johansson's and Eriksson's out there, tell us your story please!

And finally, when the times are better and I'm very homesick, I would like to go home. But until then, please let me stay in America!

Oh - and one more thing, we have had our share of bad things happening to us already, lets not add kidnapped by ruthless geocoin collector to that list. Please.
