ABOUT ME

I'm a guy from northern Sweden. I was born in the mining capital of Sweden; Kiruna. My mom is Swedish, and my father Finnish so I speak fluent Swe/Fin. I grew up outside of Kiruna in a small village called Vittangi. We had cold winters with sometimes -40-50 degrees Celsius. But it was a very nice place to grew up at. Huge forests, good fishing and not to far from swedens highest mountains.
When I was little my parents separated and I moved with my mom 400km south to a town called Piteå. In Piteå I was a a shy boy in school until high school when met people that didn't care about what other thought and just let everyone be as they are. I started in a drama group at school and has since then been interested in working with theatre in some way. This year I've been studying drama, and it has been so interesting and fun! This spring I auditioned for another drama school, and got in! So the next two years I'll be studying more.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to make people realize what a value life on this planet is, and make people to start care for it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll do my best to offer you a couch, when I myself isn't travelling around. I'll give you as much "inside info" as I can about my area, and let you know the sweet spots I know of.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't couchsurfed trough cs.org before, but I do have experience of letting hitchhikers sleep over at my dads place. It is a really interesting way to meet other people. A couple of years back we had a hitch hiking couple from Poland who slept in our couch. We served them dinner and went to sauna and it was so exciting!
When I was small I couchsurfed together with my dad in Norway. We were staying at an older retired couple. It was so interesting to hear the stories the old man told us about when he was working in a coal mine on Svalbard. To summarize it; couch surfing is wonderful in every way. Interesting meetings, cozy, progressive and also cheap!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not much of a bookreader unfortunately, but I like reading books when I get to it. The Harry Potter-series is a favorite.
I like movies that tells me a story of some bizarre/exciting/ordinary event, the important thing is how it's told, not what it's about. Fargo, Inglorious Bastards, The Big Lebowski and Jackie Brown are some of my favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was mountain hiking for ten days last year with my friends. And we went over a mountain pass near Kebnekaise (Swedens highest peak). The view on top of the pass was AMAZING! It was really the best weather conditions and we were in a good mood. It was on of the best moments in my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a lot about acting and acting techniques, I've studied acting for three years. I can also teach a lot about computers (mac/windows), and maybe help if you have a computer issue. I can teach about system camera shooting. Im a person who knows little about many things, so you might learn something even if it's not written above.
