About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To share experiences and perceptions of the experienced.

ABOUT ME

I'm a preschool teacher. I do not technically couch surf but I attend some events and create even more. I used to make them within the framework of the Stockholm University Student Union. But those circles branched out and interconnected with Couchsurfing and meetup circles.

The type of things that I organize are Language exchange cafés in Swedish. Hiking, kayaking, boating, picnics, museum visits, traditional holiday evens, city tours, sight seeing, visiting historical sites and such events.

I can't host you and I wont dance with you in a night club. But if you want to see the city, the sights, nature or culture I'm your guy.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is a poison and everything is a cure, it only depends on the dose.

Shared pleasure is double pleasure.
