Hi there, I am William.

But to english speakers I introduce myself as Will!

I'm an easy-going swede with a multitude of interests and I enjoy meeting and greeting people from all walks of life.

My deepest passions are music, story-telling, games of all kind. Currently I am also very much into martial arts.
I play a few musical instruments. Among them: guitar, piano,ocarina and I sing. I have a deep respect and appreciation for musicians of all different genres. But I have a quite narrow taste, I usually prefer to listen to entire albums over individual songs.

Throughout my life I've practice karate, parkour, dancing, snowboarding, skiing, cross-country skiing, climbing, gymnastics and scuba-diving. Indeed sports have been a big part of my life.

Philosophy is a subject I hold dear--it's the instruction manual for life that we all must write for ourselves. I love discussing the mysteries of the universe!
If you're in the mood for discussion about the mysteries about the human condition and our place in the universe, I'm sure we could be talking for hours.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I host people who visit the area where I live whenever I am able, keeping the spirit of Couchsurfing alive

I've surfed couches in many places around the world. Every time it's a unique experience, and I always try to give back in whatever way I can. All people who I have met through CouchSurfing so far would be more than welcome to visit me, when the time comes for me to have a place of my own somewhere.

Couchsurfing to me is a way to exchange things that are more important than money or physical objects (but we all need those things to get by currently).

This universe we live in. It is so fascinating that I don't think there's much out there I'm not interested in.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I wish to learn how I can best contribute to developing a global community in a positive direction.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

We can play music and sing if we have any instruments on hand.
I am not the best at cooking, but I don't mind helping out. I can clean and do the dishes.
I carry with me dice, so I can play Liar's Dice with you. Or perhaps some old school role-playing games (D&D-ish)
Teach you to do parkour and gymnastics. (Hand-stands, flips, jumps, vaults and many other things)
The basic steps of some dances; shuffling and a few others.
