CURRENT MISSION

To be openminded. explore this beautiful world and make it a little better!

ABOUT ME

I'm a teacher, who just started working. I'm trying to see as much as I can of this world, near and far. I'm a pretty chill person, love traveling but also enjoying life right where I am. Love hiking, music, craft & arts, philosophy, discussions, cooking... Meeting new people!

Why doesn't the inventors of Couch surfing get the Nobel Peace Prize? I can not think of anything that creates more authentic cultural encounters, and that builds friendships all over the world.

PHILOSOPHY

"The world would be very empty
if you just considered towns, mountains and roads.
But knowing someone here and there,
who thinks like you, and are united with you in spirit,
that turns the world into an inhabited garden"
(Swedish poem, my translation)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have that much time for surfers now that I started working, but I'm not impossible ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurfing in Toronto, and it was one of my greatest traveling experiences that I definitely want to do that again! Last summer I stayed with two great hosts in Berlin.
When I lived in Nashville I went to the weekly meet up there, and met some really cool people (if you need a host there I'll know some sweet folks!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I like to see the amazing parts in everyday life, like experiencing love from family and friends, standing up for what you think is right, and contributing to a difference. Last year I did a 10-days backpacking trip to Zion National Park, Utah (US) which was awesome! I also saw Grand Canyon, and Niagra Falls, which are all places that took my breath away. Last summer I was staffing at a CISV-camp for teenagers years 17-19 for a month in Holland, that was a great thing! Peacebuildning and friendship-making, just as I wish the world would be.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn all languages in this world, and if you're interested in learning some Swedish, I'd love to help! Since I love music, any new instrument or a new melody is something I'd love to learn. I can teach you how to make awesome lemon curd or great bread, crochet a Swedish moose or the basics for rock climbing.
