About Me

Hello! I am 19 years old, currently living on Long Island, NY with my host family where I aslo work as an aupair.
I take care of 3 children and love my job. I came here in June and are staying 13 months in the united states.
I have worked as an lifeguard for 2 years and also as an swimming instructor for 4 years. I have been a competitive swimmer for 10 years. I love yoga and to be out in the woods. I like NY and have really enjoyed my time here so far.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because of that I want my little sister to see New York during New years eve. She booked her tickets for the 26th December to 2 January and we need a place to stay during those days. I want her to experience how it is to live as an american and since my host family couldn't have us both staying in their home I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to exchange cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled all alone, 18 years old, to a new country (USA) to live with an american family and work as an aupair.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share recipes or cultural storys about my country. I love Sweden and I think everyone who has a chance should travel there and experience it.

We are both very outgoing and fun to socialize with. We would love to share our culture with you!
