I'd like to think of myself as an open minded, curious person. I'm pretty straight forward, and like to skip the small talk and dig deeper. (I'll be honest about how awkward I am with speaking English. I'm not used to it so it'll probably be a bit wonky before I get a hand of it!)

I've been described as having eyes that sparkle when I'm passionate about something that makes me happy or committed, and that I'm easily exited about mundane things. (I LOVE to just browse food markets. ) I can get really hyped about stupid stuff, but I try to keep a straight face about it.

I'm at most times open minded and wants to/tries to understand where people are coming from with their views and/or behaviors.

Me myself am a calm and pretty silent kind of person, which is either annoying to some or calming to others. (I'll never force myself to be more social than I actually am, so I hope to be respected in that and not be forced to speak) If you can't stand "awkward" silences, then I'm probably not your type of person. (WHY are people so darned afraid of silences?)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To save money, and get to know the the lands culture on a more personal level. I'd love to just chill around and explore different countries and meet like minded people.

Teach, Learn, Share

https://www.veganistan.se/ is a great page for finding places with vegan options in Sweden. (It's in Swedish, though.) Ask me to search for the city you're going to visit and I'll help you out.

https://www.happycow.net/ is also a good page to find vegan options, and is in English. Here you can do searches worldwide.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to explore the food culture with someone who shares the enthusiasm for trying out new flavors. If you're vegan and know of amazing places, please take me there! If you're not vegan, but would like to try out vegan food, that's an option as well.

I can share some (pretty basic but totally tasty) recopies to cook at home.

I can guarantee a safe space if you're LGBTQ+.
