I live in a tiny village in Sweden with my husband who is Swedish. We have a permaculture farm where we grow lots of fruits and vegetables, build tiny houses, hold learning courses, manage a couple airbnb rentals and generally live a sustainable life. We have a large flock of chickens, a retriever mix who loves to watch said chickens and a little fluff ball of a cat. We live in a 25sq meter tinyhouse that we built and love the simpler life. We love to travel and explore the world on our free time, (which is not as often as it used to be) and spend as much time outside as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to find alternative places to stay, while having the benefit of meeting local people and making new connections.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love most types of music, watching movies in the evenings and reading as often as possible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quite my job, left a failing relationship, sold my car and most of my stuff, and moved to Sweden to follow my heart and my dreams. (My heart: A Swedish man I knew as a boy from my childhood. My Dreams: A self sufficient lifestyle, free from the daily grind and closer to nature.)

Teach, Learn, Share

We all can learn something from each other.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My positive and happy energy, goofy banter, and hopefully some laughter. Cleaning and cooking, and even payment if necessary. And always a strong connection along with the unlimited offer of a place to stay in return.
