ABOUT ME

EMILIA: http://artemilia.se

EMILIA:
I'm twenty-five years old, a happy and pleasant person ;) I enjoy painting, shooting pictures, making collages and adjusting photos in photoshop(I'm a nerd), handstanding (modest amount), composing and writing music (recently started), playing trumpet (recently started, just know four bars from the star wars- melody so far haha). I'm studying to become music teacher and I play the guitar, the piano - and I sing together with four girlfriends in a A capella group. I'am not that good at football, but drinking a beer and playing football with some friends a summer evening is ace!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to ask myself, now and then, how I wish to live and what I wish to experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

2008 interrail trip with my friend Kajsa. Hosted by three CS-people and stayed at hostels the rest of the trip.

CS is the best way of travelling. I've only met nice people through CS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met and taught a group of five year old kids music with my two classmates. Around ten lessions with different themes (for example winter or circus. Me and my classmates planned the lessions very well and dressed up like "mr winter" or a ballerina depend on the theme. I sensed the curiosity and happiness of the children and it was a lot of fun, concentration and flow!
