I am a Swede studying random classes in Santa Barbara since August 2014, hoping to major in Environmental studies some day, and help keep the environment alive.

i have been traveling around a bit in my life, and will continue till I die. I was on my first airplane at 5 months old, and as a teenager often went to new countries with my good friends over the school breaks.

Spent the summer train hopping in Europe with a good friend, and met a lot of really awesome people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had an account for a while, but did not start using it until very recently. I hope to be able to be very active for a long time, and will try to host in my simple apartment in California which I share with 5 other students.

It is a very different experience living in a hotel or hostel, or living with a local who knows all the good places in the area. And traveling is not only to find new places, but to find new people too. Somehow it feels more humane to live with ordinary people than in a sterile room in a hotel.

Interests

Besides from traveling, I enjoy singing and playing flute, learning guitar and piano, create any form of art (for the moment I mostly doodle in my notebooks), try new things - whatever they might be - , and eating all food except the ones that comes from the ocean. I enjoy spending time in nature, as well as in big cities.
