About Me

Lovin' life
Married to Hanna and we have two boys, Valter born 2019 and Einar born 2022.
We've just built a house on the swedish countryside. A bit remote but worth the hassle to get to :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The perfect way to travel! Meet new fascinating people and see new places from a local perspective, getting away from expensive crowded hotels.
It'll hopefully also give us a chance to show our country and the beautiful place we live in to travellers while we're not exploring the world ourselves.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly read nonfiction books related to work or hobbies; books about theology, nature, environmental issues, conservation, birds etc..
But I also enjoy biographies and reading travel stories and accounts about adventures.
I enjoy watching movies from all genres except horror.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent five weeks on the kenyan coast, working with an environmental organisation called "A rocha". Beautiful place, wonderful people!

Spent three months on the road with my wife in Africa, Aus/NZ and Asia.
