I'm Gun. You would think that's a cool name, but in Sweden it's an incredibly unsexy old senior name that most people relate to their bitter first grade teacher who just wanted to retire. That's the only reason I travel. To make people think my name is cool.

Things that I love includes meeting new people, scuba diving, paragliding, roof tops and fine ales. My goal isn't very original but still: I want experience the world and hopefully, with a little bit of help from you couchsurfers, one day I will.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

'Cause I believe in it and think that it's a spectacular way of traveling and getting to know places and people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pretty much any unexpected situation I've gotten myself into while being abroad. Surfing down a volcano in Nicaragua, diving with hammerhead sharks in Galapagos and downhill mountainbiking Death Road in Bolivia are probably top three.
