If you want to request to stay with me, please read "My Home"-section first!

I come from Gothenburg, the front side of Sweden! But I live in Skåne since three years, currently in Malmö and previously in Lund.

I work as a traffic planner/civil engineer, because life is all about moving forward, right? And in a way that is sustainable, economical, efficient, healthy, safe...so complicated, so interesting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my gap year I biked from Gothenburg south to Berlin, where I mostly stayed with couchsurfers all the way from Kungsbacka to Gransee. This experience enriched my trip in a way I don't think it would've done if I'd only stayed in hostels! So I've continued to use CS as a way of traveling and by beeing a host I can have the experience even when I'm at home.

Interests

I love outdoor activites like climbing, biking and hiking! Also I cold swim in the ocean regulary. I dance a Swedish dance called bugg, which is a bit like boogie woogie but a bit more "tidy". I make harmonies with the timer in the kitchen and also all the songs that are playing. I was named "the sarcastic bastard" in my high school class and I'm trying to live up to it every day, pretty successfully actually. I bike in my every day life and by long distance and also study and work with biking. So I like to bike...

Music, Movies, and Books

Almost all movies with something from the second World War or during the last century (Max Manus, Die Welle, The Bookthief, The Reader) or movies with strong female leads (The Help, Heartbreakers, Finding Dory).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Biked Gothenburg-Berlin alone.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you speak German, möchte ich es gern mit dir sprechen! أو اللغة العربية ☺️
Or any of the Scandinavian languages! If we both know another language than English, even though not perfect, I think it's a great opportunity to use that language with each other!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Language skills (Swedish, Norwegian, English, German, Arabic, a little Swedish sign language, also understand Danish and Dutch)
Music skills (playing the piano, I am amazing at music quizes and can make harmonies to any song - if you want to)
Cooking vegetarian food (I find it easier than cooking meat, but I eat everything! Except for liver, mustard and wasabi)
