About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying the Swedish spring in evey way possible

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing person who loves to get to know new people and cultures, and some words new words in your language if I'm lucky. Believe that food is one of the best ways to get to know a country. Both to eat and hopefully do some cooking as well! Dance is another passion, though I'm hardly an expert. I've joined a dance group where w try on new styles once a week - lots offun!

I grew up on the countryside near Stockholm. After High School I went to Honduras and worked as a volunteer at an orphange. That experienced made me eager to see more of the world and try to contribute at places where people are not so fortunate as in Sweden. And also that it is a great exchange that I believe I benefit from as much as the ones who host me. I was lucky to get the oppurtunity to go to Palestwine and work at a Peace Center i East Jerusalem, a truly amazing experience!

The last four years I've been studying in Uppsala - a vivid student city in Sweden. If everthing goes as planned I will be a psychologist in a few years.

PHILOSOPHY

It's much more fun to be happy
