Hi! I love adventures in nature!!!!! Curently I'm studying a two year very intensive full-time program to become a mountain leader and outdoor guide. I'm traveling and beeing outdoors with school or away on internships a lot so I might not be able to host so often, but you could give it a try 😊 Hopefully in the future I will work as a river rafting and sea kayaking guide in summer and skiing guide in winter. (One year ago, used to live in Luleå) I’m for the moment working full time as a nurse, both day, evening and even sometimes in the night. When I’m not working I’m outdoors kayaking, hiking, skiing or running. I love to travel and see beautiful, breathtaking places in the nature. I also love to sleep in nature and wake up right in the middle of the beauty and calmness. I am open-minded and try to approach life with a sense of humor. I like to meet new people and try new things. Two years ago I kayaked the whole coast of Sweden (2300km) and had the best time of my life. Hope to do some adventure like that soon again.

What I Can Share With Hosts
I can always tell you something about Sweden and beautiful places to visit there. I like cooking (mainly vegetarian) and baking, but I can't promise it will always turn out well :P Helping out with whatever I can :)
