About Me

I'm a social and cultured person that enjoy intresting meetings and to get new perspectives on things. Currently I'm living in Malmö, Sweden to study Economics and Political Science. Since these are my main subjects I really like to discuss things and learn more about how people look at the world. What I mostly search though is just to hang out with nice people :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm really interested to explore the world and I think to do so is to get to know people, see how they live and to share experiences. Couchsurfing seems like a perfect way of doing just that!

Interests

As I child I liked to move a lot and played several sports. Some of my interest in sports is still there but during my early teenage years my cultural interest started to evolve. In the beginning it was all music but since I started to explore it more and more it just evolved to conclude almost every form of art. I've been volunteering at an alternative cinema since I was 16 and was later employed so film has also been a huge interest of mine but also many other artforms.
