I'm a 26 years old Swedish woman. I'm a coffe lover, wine drinker, outdoorsy, pretty down to earth person.
I work as a pre school teacher and I used to be an au pair in Virginia - yeah I love kids!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is an awesome way to meet people, I love taking people around the city!

Interests

Travel is definitly one of my favorite things to do, both to cities and nature, absolute favorite is a beach city! Love, love, love the ocean!

When I'm home I like haning out with friends exploring my city, drinking coffe or wine or going on a nice hike! But I also love just chilling at home, watching tv with my cat!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is A Street Cat Named Bob by James Bowen, but I like Harry Potter and pretty much anything detective!

Music - Absolutly love Håkan Hellström, a swedish musician. It apperently sounds a little emo (nothing wrong with that) but its the most beautiful lyrics!

I'm not a big moive fan, I mean I like watching movies but I don't have a favorite one. Tv shows on the other hand - I like parks and recs, 30 rock, the office, greys anatomy and much much more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left everything in Sweden to move to USA for a year to be an au pair! I'm still in contact with my host family and miss those kids a lot!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give you a crash course in Swedish, or show you how to make a Swedish sticky chocholate cake!

I definitly want to learn about your culture, the area where you live. I love to see the parts of city or a place that aren't too touristy, but you usually need someone who isn't a tourist to show you! Even if you don't have time to show me around, I'll always appreciate tips for places off the beaten track!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Swedish culture - yes we do really eat a lot of meatballs and no we don't know how to properly assemble an IKEA piece either! (And yes we do ride on polar bears!) Oops did I give it all away now?

But I can definitely share the secrets of making Swedish pancakes for breakfast or some of them famous meatballs with mash, gravy and the Swedish lingonberry jam for dinner!
