Overview
About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to travel, from the moment I could travel I've been traveling and try to stay to my budget of 20€/ day, flights included. It's a perfect way to interact with locals as well as keeping the costs down.
Interests
I love action sports, such as: snowboarding, surfing, skateboarding, running, climbing, cliff jumping, wakeboarding, BMX riding in parks and riding on inlines. Of course traveling is at
the top of my interests, I love to meet new cultures. I love cooking, and sharing stories over a good meal.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love the music from the 80's, my favourite song is What a fool believes by the Doobie Brothers. The lord of the rings is my favourite trilogy and The Shawshank Redemption is my favourite movie. Dan Brown is my favourite author, his book Inferno is a masterpiece, although the movie is nothing to see, really.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In five days I drove 1300 km on a moped with all my belongings for my travel on my back in my backpack in Vietnam. During that trip I learned the importance of company on longer adventures, I accidentally drove over a duck (that luckily survived) and I managed to order a meal of ramen noodles from a local family whom couldn't speak one word of English in the middle of nowhere.
Teach, Learn, Share
I finished high school in June -15 and will start University in August -17 to become a mechanical engineer at the royal technical university in Stockholm, Sweden.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have a lot of stories from my travels that I am more than happy to share when I'm asked about them and I am willing to help whenever help is needed.
