About Me

So what is the story going around on here now? : ) Dear fellow nomads and unknown friends with not yet discovered passions we might have in common🥰. So why can we not make life a bit more 'extra-ordinary' together while trying to make the most of the happy times we share a little bit more remarkable and pleasant? It doesn't have to be expensive and we can all share something that we need to work with/on?🥰. Feel free to Inspire me with any sort of activities you'd like to do during your visit in Sweden or even maybe travel somewhere around, sharing a trip together? 🤠. And I'll try to look out for what options are available? So what can I offer you as an host? WelI , first it depends on our budget since Stockholm ain't cheap, but in anytime I can share with you some of the most profound viewpoint's of Stockholm and maybe even create some amazing remarkable happy new experiences all depending on what is your personal interests are and how wild person you are as an adventuring traveller/tourist visiting Sweden? 😅. So why not just let us create some kind of good times and create joyful moments together. :) You can be completely open with me on what you want out of your trip/visit in Sweden and I will try to do my best to make a good trip. However, either way, I'm happy to be showing you around some cool places and give some sort of guidance depending on what you're looking for in your journey?✨ Always happy to see you are having a happy, joyful n safe journey around here in Sweden! ❤️💚💛 ! Big 🐻 🤗 ! So who am Chris? I'd say I'm more of a small town boy then a big city boy since I grew up and spent most of my time during this journey called life around nature/forests/mountains, especially went out snowboarding with friends as a kid for example. I do still love some parts of the city lifestyle in small doses and can enjoy going out within the right set and setting to socialise in bars/cafes, music festivals exploring new open communities, bouldering, hiking, climbing, yoga, svimning, exercise, running with the 🐕. Stockholm has plenty to offer and something good for every person really depending on what your interests are to explore? 😉

I do quite prefer to host people that are interested to socialize, have similar interests and are friendly enough to open up about ourselves, smile and shine out in togetherness 🌞 if you want to just keep being alone, and just do your 'own' trip it might be better for you to book an private room at one of our city's tourist service centers :-) - (I can give you some guidance in this case as well).
Couchsurfing from my perspective is supposed to be all about exchange an cultural experience so please in the name of god - please share and give some LOVE to make the most and beat out our couchsurfing experience ever! :)❤️ Let's create something special to look back on some happy days full of joy worthwhile. it might even be something positive to reflect back on later which can cheer us back up to be happier as we sometimes cheer down on more dull rainer days. Looking forward to hear your stories 😉 love&light😘

If you have any questions? Please don't hold onto it anymore and be shy! Feel completely free with me and open up with me what holds you back, let the energy flow freely with ' it ' together as naturally as we can carry on share the energy flowing between us and maybe hopefully we can even teach each other something new about ourselves this magic way? ✨

What sorts of experience I'd be looking forward offer to share with you? Just like another time traveler's - I do LOVE to share the love of backpacking together and really enjoying the moments we share together and open up for most activities to catch up with as to give out some examples(all suggestions on activities are warmly welcome?): exercise in nature, hiking, hearing different points of any viewpoints, be an part of lovely moments in share, experience lovely people with an refreshing mindset-to-go-with, go out partying, learn something new, GO/exploring / hiking in surrounding areas around Stockholm , meet new wonderful people to chat with(I grew up 4 hours north by car, right next to beautiful Swedish wild and free refreshingly beautiful green forests and Clean lakes...) Trying out to keep myself part time buzy on something nice like CS and keep on making international friendships from around the globe meanwhile to not lose myself into the robotic lifestyle completely. :-)

I am usually (if I'm not occupied) up for some CAMPING trip in nature reserves around the country. you are welcome to share some suggestions on what you'd like to try out and where we could go camping out somewhere around.🥾🥾

I was traveling between 2010 - 2014 in in a row, I started the trip in India down south Goa and then traveled up north to the Himalayas(Manali,Ladakh) by bus, then traveled through parts of all countries in South East Asia except Brunei. I spent almost 2 years in Australia and then moved on for another year in New Zealand working on the rebuild project in Christchurch south island after the earthquake. This was heartbreaking at some parts of it but it genuinely changed my life but also made it much harder to adapt the Swedish way of life / routined lifestyle now.

It can sometimes be difficult to settle back into the system and adapt the daily routine as a traveller so having some happy outgoing surfers sharing that travel spirit coming by would make life a bit more alive and good fun and we can even exchange some good stories, food culture, languages, good vibrations, new aspects of life, lovely experiences, mindfulness 😆 why not? 🤔✌️😘

I could possibly help out with a place to stay for some time if I'm in town depending on how everything's works out and if we click well together 😏

I'm keen to make some new international open-minded friendships around the world and open to share some happy times/momentos together :)❤️😊✌️

I'm probably currently working during the weeks but might still have some time to hang out and host you.

I would always be up to spend as much fun that we can afford doing togheter! 😜

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet free spirited travelers that would like to share their minds, warmth, culture, life experiences, love and personal views on life. The best way to learn and break any personal judgement is through meeting friendly and open minded people that are willing to share a bit of them self. :)))

Except for HOSTING, I also love go Hiking/CAMPING in surrounding beautiful Nature reserve of Stockholm and would love to have some wild adventures backpackers with me sometime, see pics

Teach, Learn, Share

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”

― Anthony Bourdain, No Reservations: Around the World on an Empty Stomach

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cozy hipster area in Stockholm. Free WIFI, Couch, Bed, Fresh and Clean Kitchen / Bathroom facilities and some good advices what to do /where to party in the city.

Also, in my opinion, the most beautiful and nicest city view point, just a 10min walk from my flat.

Always happy to share some adventure, good life n travel stories if you are up for it!
