Hey!
I'm a 25 year old male from Sweden who quit his job as a prison guard in a maximum security prison to go backpacking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been backpacking for almost 10 months, starting with Mexico, Central - and South america, and now followed by some time in Europe.
Since I am on a budget and will be traveling alone, I thought Couch surfer might make it a bit more cheap, and fun!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to most genres, but the favourites are rock and subgenres of rock.
I am a huge horror movie fan, but also a movie fanatic in general.
While on the road I read pretty much what I can find.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sold EVERYTHING that I ever owned in order to go backpacking through Latin America, on a 1 month notice.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning Spanish, currently intermediate level.
Fluent in Swedish and English and willing to help in what ever way I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts
