Winter/spring 2018 not hosting unfortunately.

If I got to choose a citizenship one day, I would like to be "European". I have traveled a lot throughout Europe, lived several years in Germany and France, a few months in Ireland and have moved to Northern Sweden in 2010. I love that we share many things in Europe but that there's a large diversity of culture, languages, landscapes, foods.... My friends are from all over the world.

With my work as a researcher in plant biology I am traveling quite a lot, also outside of Europe. I enjoy discovering new countries. I dance Balboa and Lindy hop and have started to travel to international dancing workshops. Whenever I travel for work or for dancing I am amazed how connected people are at these events. However different we may be, we always have at least one thing and often many in common.
I love when people are open-minded, tolerant, fair, helpful, curious to new things and when they don't hesitate to give a helping hand.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

I like to meet the locals when traveling and couchsurfing seems to me the ideal way to do so.

And also welcoming visitors to Umeå is a pleasure to me. I have had lots of friends visiting me in Umeå since I moved here. I would be happy to give also other people who want to discover Umeå a nice place to stay at and provide you with tips of what you do here so very far in the North. Depending on my own schedule and your wishes I may even be able to show you around or to take you to some places.

If you want to sleep on my sofa, please read first the "My home" section: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/judith-felten/couch

You have best chances to get access to my couch if you contact me at least 3 weeks ahead of your stay. This however doesn't mean that last-minute never works.
