About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new interesting people who enjoy exploring the world and the world of others!

ABOUT ME

I love travelling - and travelers. I used to work in the epic boat hostel "af Chapman" in the beautiful waterfront of the Stockholm citycentre, now living and working in nearby Uppsala There are few things that I like more than discovering new places, culture and people.

PHILOSOPHY

You just have one life, make sure to enjoy it. In any other person, you have its own experience of the world and the universe, as unique as your own. This thought is just mindblowing!:)
