Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learning to solve problems (maybe eventually the small issue of climate change?) and becoming as strong as I possibly can.
ABOUT ME
I'm a student in Lund, meaning that I spend a lot of time studying (yes, actually studying). Of course there is time for other stuff as well, such as having a relaxed time in parks, going to pubs and whatever else that might come up!
My main interest has for a long time been music, playing the guitar with my friends and going to shows, and even setting some up! What's more fun than stagediving and jumping around like crazy to some heavy band in a sweaty, crowded venue?
In contrast to my interest in natural science I really enjoy reading fantasy novels. Fantasy not meaning Harry Potter. Atleast not ONLY Harry Potter. More like dragons and swords.
I also aspire to become a competitive powerlifter, which basically means that I like lifting heavy stuff at the gym.
PHILOSOPHY
Open minded and trying to never judge a person too quickly. I'm also a vegan.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
So far I've only surfed, but I look forward to hosting when I can!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first couchsurfing experiences was in Melbourne, where I lived for 5 months. I liked that especially because it allowed for us to see each other many times after the initial couchsurfing and making some really good friends!
Interests
Music, playing the guitar, skiing (on snow and water), longboarding (recently started skating also), surfing, lifting heavy stuff, natural science.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the best experiences I've had is the time I spent on Heron Island in the Great Barrier Reef when travelling Australia with my family. Simply the most beautiful place I've ever been to.
Another thing would be when I lived on a raft on the Amazon River, swimming with piranhas and other life threatening animals... Unfortunately only as a baby (awesome parenting right there), so it might not count as I can't say I remember much. Nothing, actually. Cool story though.
Teach, Learn, Share
I always try to improve my cooking and I love practicing on hosts!
