About Me
Swedish b. 1989.
I'm currently studying Computer Science at 42 in Paris. A few years back, I used to work for Oxford's business school and later started an investment firm to fund Education start-ups. I'm currently exploring artificial intelligence. A quick video intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKPk7tG2upc

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've been traveling back and forth over the past decade. I enjoy simple traveling, sharing the human experience and talking about what we've discovered so far. I've stayed in ~80 homes so far.
Interests
- I joined a music group and toured a dozen countries. My highlight was a Spanish solo for 6k Mexicans. (For the record, I'm a terrible singer. I only got the opportunity because the three first options were sick.)
- For a year, I lived as a digital nomad in southeast Asia, the States, and South Africa.
- I run the equivalent of a marathon every week, only wear black, and I own less than a hundred objects.
- I've participated in a silent retreat and taken several solo trips to remote parts of the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
At the age of eighteen, I moved to a remote village in Ghana, West Africa. Due to my appreciation of their culture, by invoking the former chief's spirit, and my perceived wealth as a westerner I was given the honor of being anointed Nano (king) of the village, earning the title Nana Darmang.
