About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Routine or adventure - does one really have to choose?

ABOUT ME

Hey people!
Back here at couchsurfing after a crazy year with studies and tons of work. I'm not sure that this year will be any calmer, but I'm happy to overestimate my time and powers haha.
I live in the beautiful capital of Sweden, and even though I love travelling I always smile when I come back (except during the seven months of darkness we infortunately were given).

I have also lived in Guatemala, and that was truly a great year. I got to know so many amazing people and a, to me, completely new culture, and for that I will always be grateful. Guatemala is probably a mix of the most beautiful and the most terrible things I've ever seen, and I learned so much. I go back whenever I have time and money, which isn't nearly as often as I'd like. I worked my way around there as a musician, so if you drop by my couch, I can promise some interesting discussions around the subject!

Right now I'm at law school at the university here in Sthlm, and I really love it. Well, parts of it! Feels good to get it done anyway, but it also means that I won't be able to travel for a while, which makes me terribly afraid haha. So, surfers, come and bring the world to me now when I can't get to it!

When staying at my place I might be working or studying quite a lot, but whenever there's time I'd love to show a little bit of Stockholm for any surfer that's interested. Strolling in old town, hitting an open stage, making some salsa moves, or just spending some time over dinner with a good conversation. As long as you're easy going, open minded and dare to have an opinion, I think we can make it work!

PHILOSOPHY

Just LIVE! It doesn't have to be more complicated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I host more then I surf, but I think it's a great way to experience new things at your own half of the pitch. We're all in need of some new inspiration once in a while, right?:)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, only good ones, I've had great people at my couch. I do tend to pick very carefully though, so please be thorough when writing to me about who you are, how long you wish to stay, etc. It makes it a lot easier to build some kind of trust, and since you'll stay in my home it's something I appreciate to have!
