I'm in Umeå for the film festival from the 28th Nov to 3rd Dec and am looking for a place to stay and fun people to hang with! If anyone's up for hosting me that would be amazing :)

I'm a outgoing, easygoing an energetic kinda person. I worked in the film industry in London for many years but jacked it all in after falling head over heels in love with the frozen north!

I live in northern sweden at the moment where I write comics and train huskies. This year I finished Femundløpet, a 400km race in Norway and my goal is to run the 1600km Iditarod in Alaska 💪🐶❄️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel like you never really get a true feel for a place until you really get to know the people who live there. I don't want to look at the world from a hotel window, I want to get involved!

Interests

In my free time I make an online show about underground electronic music, write, go to watch movies and to gigs. I'm interested in nature, music, film and comics.

Music, Movies, and Books

There's too much beloved music to even begin to list here!

Check out my soundcloud show if you want to hear some sweet recommendations though :) www.soundcloud.com/neoterika

My favourite books include Game of Thrones (all of them!), Cosmic Banditos, The Exorcist, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail and the His Dark Materials trilogy. Right now my comics pull list includes Saga, Abbott, Black Hammer, Southern Bastards and Infidel

Film is my life. Happy as a clam to talk about movies for ever, compare favourites, whatever, ask away!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Left my life in London on impulse to work as a dog handler for mushers in northern Norway.

Best decision I ever made :)
