Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I have my principles. If you dont like them, I can change them...:-)
ABOUT ME
I have been working as self employed for 30 yrs. The past 15 yrs with health promotion in different companies in Sweden. The nearest couple of years I have been having public talks about consumtion and recycling. I also, as a part time job, work as a project manager with solar energy.
I have two kids , born 1991 and 1993.
PHILOSOPHY
People who thinks something is impossible, should not disturb people who are busy doing it...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I see this membership as a part of the work agains fear and racism. I have met too many people who is afraid of meeting "strangers". I also feel thet stories about violent crimes take too much space in the media, and see CS as a way too counter-balance this a bit.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been coach-surfing a lot when I travel. A lot more fun and interesting than Hotels.

Teach, Learn, Share
I guess I could work as an english teacher, if the students start from scratch...:-)
Since I´ve been doing a lot of health promotion, I could teach some people about different factors in our lives, which affects our health. Its not only jogging and carrots...
