About Me

I am a gardener with itchy feet and a passion for plants, people and animals. I moved back to my hometown after years away, to spend more time with my close ones, but I’m always dreaming of travelling or moving somewhere south where I could be gardening all year round.

My time is mostly spent with my boyfriend (who lives with me), family and friends or at home practicing yoga, watching series, growing things and reading books.

I am quite an introvert who prefer one-on-one conversations over large groups, but I do enjoy dinners, parties and clubbing once in a while.
I live quite a healthy lifestyle, sprinkled with an occasional dash of decadence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly because I want to connect with people and get new experiences. I’ve usually travelled on a low budget so CS has been a way for cutting down expenses and I and want to give the same opportunity to visitors at my home.

During trips to India I have stayed with some awesome hosts and met a bunch of really cool people, both locals and fellow tourists.
Home in Sweden, I’ve hosted travellers in my home and it’s the second best thing to travelling myself. CS has been a great way to make new friends, experience new places and try new food!

Interests

I’m easily entertained! Love going to cafés in new places, go for walks, eat street food, explore abandoned places, meet new people, watch movies, yoga and working out, visit food markets, dance, nature, meditation, roadtrips, camping, clubbing, deep conversations.

I really love meeting new people and hear their stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many things!
Solo travelling has definitely changed me as a person and the way I view the world and myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to deepen my knowledge of Yoga and Ayurveda and traditional practices in general (gardening, medicine).

Always happy to try something new - as long as it doesn’t involve heights or driving - I’m not a very confident driver of any vehicle but I’m a great companion in the passenger seat :)

I am happy to share my knowledge about gardening, yoga and bodywork.

I want to learn Hindi!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share some knowledge about yoga, gardening, bodywork, ayurveda.
