About Me

I’m crazy about the outdoors. When I need recharging I go climbing and skiing mountains or out on the ocean.

When I’m not out doing sports I live an active, creative and social life in Stockholm. I’m at a stage in my life where doing my part in making the world a better place, is the one thing that guides me.

I started travelling as a teenager and I’ve never stopped. I’ve alternated between studying, working, living abroad and travelling for the past 15 years.
I’m currently studying communications, with the ambition to use my new skills for environmental lobbying. I also work part-time as a sustainability project manager.

We have a open-minded home where ideas can be shared and challenged.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I offered my home to 2 Germans as a token of appreciation for picking me up on a forrest road, giving me an eight hour ride while exhausted me got to sleep in the backseat.

That was in 1999, so I'm an old couchsurfer at heart, but new to couchsurfing.com

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- It would be fun to film my life in Cuba, my Swedish friend Hilde said one day in her kitchen when I was over for coffee.
- I’d like to be a filmmaker.., I responded while thinking, if others can do it, so can I.

One year later I filmed her life in Havana for one month and one year after that my documentary Lo que hay (What there is) screened here in Stockholm.
