About Me

Born on the east coast of Sweden, lived in Gothenburg since 2006. Work as a freelancer in the culture biz, i.e. film, festivals, illustrations and communication. I like nature things, culture things and other things like roller derby, road tripping and fika.

Travelling to Bordeaux on May 10th - 13th and Berlin on June 2nd - 6th. Give me a shout if you want to hang out or have any tips on what to do there! (Accommodation already in place)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As most people on CS I like to meet new people and usually travel on a tight budget. It's the best of two worlds – cheap and fun!

I offer tours, tips and company to any couchsurfer in Gothenburg. I'm glad to show you around town, take you to the best spots and help you out with practical things. Usually I can offer a bed or a couch to sleep on! I do have a dog that is suspicious of strangers, but she's small and harmless at least.

As for myself, I've couchsurfed in Budapest (2008), Hamburg & Düsseldorf (2009). Hosted a couchsurfer in Norrköping back in 2005... that's the only time unfortunatlly! Been away from the community for a while but am back now and with a room to spare.
