CURRENT MISSION

Human Rights Activism

ABOUT ME

I am a queer activist by heart who loves new adventures, playing music and being creative.
I work at Stockholm University Student Union with equal opportunities, equality and issues of discrimination and with LGBTQ rights.

As a person I am very open and loving respecting other people. I am a good listener but I can also talk easily if needed! I always enjoy a good laugh :)
I am passionate for cooking and the pleasure of food and drinks. I have a huge interest for beer and I try new ones constantly trying to find the ultimate taste. I play guitar and sing in a little band and I have a cat called Kattla.

During the summers I live in a small Village called "Fågelsjö" (north part of Sweden) where I sell handcrafted tings and guide tourists at an old farm. I go canoeing and fishing almost every day there and I love the feeling of freedom that it brings. - this is the perfect place to come to if you're visiting Sweden during summer!

I travel quite often and I love experiencing new places and even better - new people. I am spontanuos so just give me a suggestion of fun happenings and I'd probably join imidietely. I am also very enthusiastic and I love coming up with ideas what to do and where to go!

PHILOSOPHY

deconstruct - rebuild.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had loads of people staying at my place due to work and activism and I usually crash on couches when I go abroad for conferences and such.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you guitar. I can also teach you about beer, cooking and how to make the best smoothie! I can teach you to fish and how to "long-board".

I would love to learn how to breathe while playing didgeridoo. I would also like to learn how to snowboard and how to climb. Maybe I could practice my spanish also?
