About Me

I am from Stockholm but nothing like a city girl to be completely honest. During winter season I work as a skiing coach and couldn't think of a better place to have my office. I have been skiing my whole life so any questions about places to go, don't hesitate to ask!
And I love the traveling, that's when I feel like the true Joanna is coming forward. My last "few months to Australia trip" turned out to become 1,5 year of traveling, visiting and working in five different countries. The people really made my trip and I also realized how many beautiful places there is in this world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because a hotel room is the most boring place on this planet

Interests

I am very much of an outdoor person. I have been competing in alpine skiing my whole life and I very much feel like being "home" is in the mountains. I love fitness and when there is no snow for skiing, I do crossfit, hiking, bike riding and some rock climbing. I am looking forward to meet new people I can do crazy outdoorsy things with.

Even though I like the outdoors, wine, food with good company is one of my favorite things too. Especially outside during the summery months.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to a highschool for alpine skiers were we could practice skiing during school hours.

Teach, Learn, Share

The majority of people in this world are keen to help you, you just gotta make sure you ask for it
