About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Showing people around and providing people with tips on what to do, eat and hear during their stay. I also tell everyone about the genious concept of CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I havn't been hosting much due to small living spaces and other logistic problems, but finally I have the space :) I have gotten to know a few CSers from meeting them for coffee and dinner during their stays and been treveling and surfing with two of them to Rome and Kiruna. As I am studying a distance program in another city I have used CS for staying the night during our mandatory meet-ups a couple of times a year. Such an awesome way to meet people!

Interests

Food. Politics. Art. Walking, skiing, horse riding, bowling, pool.

I don't party much because I'm mostly too "zen". I like tea and small pubs. But I'm a bit like a cat, I go crazy occasionally.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: mostly 60's swedish progg, electronic of various kinds, psychedelic rock, folk, jazz or neo-classical/ambient. My most listened artists would probably be Simon and Garfunkel, Thåström, The Knife, Nils Frahm, Billie Holiday and Jefferson Airplane.

Movies: My taste is kind of pretentious. But I'm actually bad at watching movies overall, im more into documentaries about space, physics, science or politics. And im really into the tv-series River Cottage, about smallholding and cooking.

Books: Mostly litterature concerning my studies. But when I've got spare time I usually focus on classics or books people have given or lent me. Books are the best presents! Shantaram is my favorite book EVER.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked 250 km mostly alone carrying 20 kg on my back. One of the best things I have done in my life. I hope to do something like that again! Thinking about Camino de Santiago next year.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know circular breathing and some of the basics of playing the didgeridoo. Would be fun to share :)

I also make a kickass vegan garlic dip and I make good glögg (swedish mulled wine) and polish pierogi ruskie!

I love second hand shopping so i know a whole lot of nice places for that in gothenburg! I'd be happy to show you some. Once I led a group of CSers on a tour through four of them. That could easily be rearranged!

And before I die I want to learn how to speak spanish and persian. Please teach me!
