My name is Alva and I am a 20 year old Swede currently living in Berlin, which since one year has been my home. I've spent this gap year between my studies working in an amazing coffee shop, meeting new inspiring friends every day and the entire time, step by step, improving my German. My days in Berlin are however counted, since I'm planning to do the classic South-east Asia trip in March and then start my biology studies in Sweden in September.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a social, curious person who really thinks that the best way to get the most out of your travels is to meet up with locals who can show you around.

Love 60-70´s rock in general, huge fan of soul, funk and jazz. Berlin has also made me open my eyes and am now also very into techno.
