About Me

My name is Alexander but everybody calls me Alex. I'm live a 10 minute subway ride away from the inner city of Stockholm.
I am interested in many cultures and languages, and I wish to visit as many countries as I possibly can.
I'm a big fan of music, languages, and food.
Other interests include video games, culture, psychology, science, playing sports and more!
My goal is to speak 10 language fluently.

I'd like to talk to you about the food and culture of your country. Nothing beats the authentic experience from a real life local :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make my experience in all the different countries as educational, rewarding and cheap, as possible. As well as providing others, who visit Sweden, with the same things. And of course to meet new people. I see Couchsurfing as a big win-win situation. You get to meet new people and be a good host, and you get somewhere to sleep when you're the one traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I prefer anything from classic rock to electronic music to korean pop. Really anything! I love music in general.
No favorite movie in particular, I enjoy pretty much all movies.
For books I don't get around to reading very much, but I do occasionally read books about psychology, personal development and science.
Hunger Games series is good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have walked from my city of Stockholm to a whole other city in Sweden, because I like walking and exploring so much. The whole thing took us 11 hours!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share with you knowledge about the English and Swedish languages, Swedish culture and history, and many other things. Just ask and I might have something to tell you.

These things I can offer you when you visit:

1. Feel free and make yourself at home. Services such as kitchenware, clean water etc. are obviously included.
2. We can provide you with either matresses or a couch to sleep on, whichever you prefer.
3. Availability. 5-minute walk from the subway station, which is 10 minutes from the Stockholm inner city.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you're the one hosting, I can obviously be very quiet and won't cause any annoyance or anything like that. I don't smoke and I know what personal hygiene is so I'm not gonna be some smelly stranger.
I can be quiet but if you prefer socializing then I'm all for it.
I am very flexible and I'll behave in whichever way is appropriate just for you!
