CURRENT MISSION

Recently back from a half year of studying and traveling in and around South Africa. I'm now trying to keep the traveling vibe while studying.

ABOUT ME
I'm a curious 24 year old from Sweden.

I love learning new skills and to get new experiences, as well as sharing mine! Sports is a big part of my life, just like being outdoors in nature. I'm an active person who love to just be out there and do it.

It could be playing football, running, skiing, climbing or just hiking. I've done 2.5 years of traveling and started off in Australia & New Zealand were I also started couchsurfing. I was in South Africa for 6 months and traveled around Namibia, Zambia and Botswana. I'm studying the 5-year engineering program Industrial Engineering and Management focusing on energy here in Linköping. I find it very interesting with leadership/management and I would love to make an effort for a better world in the long run.

I'm very diverse and like most things! Come and hang out :)

PHILOSOPHY
"You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Telling people I meet out traveling about CS and why I like it. Spreading the word!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I found out about CS during my travels in Australia and New Zeeland. Me I my friend I traveled with wanted to meet more locals and not just backpackers. We tried couchsuring and we loved it. So we couchsurfed and surfed down pretty much the whole east coast of Australia, having only good experiences! It's a great way to meet the real people of a city and to see a place with the "tourist-glasses" off.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Was, after three days in Australia, invited to join the travelguide "The Grasshoppers Guide". I spent 5 weeks doing activities and stayed at hostels for free just for being a reporter.

Jumping from a small platform straight down into a canyon at Nevis Bungyjump in New Zeeland.

The feeling after climbing the highest mountain in Sweden so great, one of the best things I've done.

Also I've dislocated my hip once.. was not so amazing.
