Born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden. Moved to San Francisco, CA when I was 22. Live in Austin, TX now. I have two teenagers. They live with my ex-wife. I drive them to and from activities /school every day.

I have a college degree in computer information systems and I work in the tech industry from home.

I currently live with my cat and dog in a 3 bedroom 2 bath single family home in Austin, TX.

I speak fluent English and Swedish. I can speak some German. I understand and can communicate in Danish and Norwegian. From living in TX I learned a little Spanish. I love learning naughty phrases in all languages.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m contemplating back packing in Europe after my visit to my Swedish family thus summer. Also I do enjoy meeting people from various parts of life and hearing your stories.
