I have been living here in Sweden since August 2014 after I ve been traveling and lived overseas for 3 years and 10 months in a row.
I'm finally start get into the routine back into the system
and get some kind of balance in life.
But It gets boring and I love to have some good energy from nice couchsurfers to cheer up the daily life this dark and cold time of the year in Stockholm.
Ofcourse I miss traveling alot but I just need to sort some things out before I head back to new adventures. so far so good.
and the couchsurfers I've met had
some of the best stories I've heard...

I have a nice little apartment in the most cozy part of the city (Södermalm) to share with anyone nice in need of a place to stay. Its close to alot of interesting stuff.

some good quotes:

"This is my simple religion
There is no need for temples
no need for complicated philosophy
Our own brain, our own heart is our temple
The philosophy is kindness."
Tenzin Gyatzo, The 14th
Dalai Lama

"When you adopt the viewpoint that there is nothing that exists that is not a part of you,
That there is no one who exists who is not a part of you, that any judgement you make is self-judgement,
that any criticism you level is self-criticism
you will wisely extend to yourself an unconditional love that will be the light of your world"
Harry Palmer
