Hello! I am a 24 year old English/Swedish woman living in Barcelona studying art and art therapy and I love to use couchsurfing to travel and meet new people! I graduated in a masters in Art and Politics last year, and my art now explores the themes I learnt during this time. I am also very interested in using art as a means of helping people and have spent these last few years working various jobs and doing activism with art therapy for children and people with mental health difficulties.

I love travelling and have spent a significant amount of time in the last three years exploring Latin America. This summer I have a research scholarship for an international summer school at El Colegio de Mexico where I will be learning about Mexican history and politics. Afterwards, I hope to travel through Mexico and get to know this crazy beautiful interesting country!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teaching and learning are some of my greatest passions. I have recently finished my masters in Art and Politics, and hope to use my research in Latin America to pursue a doctorate in Aesthetics and Philosophy. This year I am also undertaking an art foundation course in art and art therapy which I am using to pursue a career in art therapy. In the last 3 years I have spent a significant amount of time working in art schools for children in underprivileged areas, and people suffering with mental illness. I have run several workshops on this at festivals and events for refugees and other oppressed groups. I am also an English language tutor for foreign students.
