Graduated from University in Dec 2015, played a year of soccer professionally in Sweden. Hiked 2700 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to California in the USA. After a year off of rest and recuperation, traveled to New Zealand to hike the Te Araroa and then keep on hiking until I drop. See places, discourse with people, etc, the privileged good life.

2020 in Chicago for present and beyond. Looking to share my space with fellow travelers to pass onto others the generosity shown to me while I was traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Great way to meet people and add to my experiences of the world. Open to anyone within reason. Love to have discourse over anything and everything especially philosophy, literature, nature, existential issues, etc. Currently juggling the hectic schedule of a city and love slowing it down with travelers.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Coffee, Wine, beer, and good conversations. Proper etiquette at all times and respect of personal space. I am a listener but also a conversationalist. I fit in easily and can be alone, be with someone, or catered off into the city or place of refuge. Overall I adapt to the setting and enjoy the goodwill of others and hopefully return with an experience of sorts. I can be an introvert but hand me some coffee and all bets are off!
