About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Master of fine art at Valand

ABOUT ME

As an artist and now student to be I work mostly with creative writing and installation, looking at topics surrounding femininity and masculinity and how these two shouldn't necessarily be used in a binary manner.

I am very interested in languages, their structure, and especially gender in language, how languages came to be and developed through the years to then stand as base for further cultural developments.

Ever since I went as an exchange student in 2006 I've had the travel bug! I love traveling, meeting new people and digging my nose into different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to constantly confront myself with my views and ideas on my reality and that of others, unlearning and learning a new through new perspectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love couch surfing and giving my couch to surfers when I can! It has given me some amazing experiences and friends. I believe the best way to travel is through people.

Interests

I have so many interests but my top are Art (making it, viewing it, reading about it, experiencing it)(art in many forms), Sewing, singing, people, conversations, listening to people who speak with enthusiasm about topics that are known and unknown to me, experiencing cultures, food (eating it and making it). Traveling (especially when I can spend longer periods in my desired destination)

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite movies is The Rocky Horror Picture Show, I also really enjoyed La grande Bellezza, Billy Elliot (always strikes the right cords), Englar Alheimssins, The Danish Girl, to name a few.

I like all kind of music, from opera to hip hop to musicals to pop ballads to dark slow electronic.

Best book I have read that also really impacted me was 'A field guide to getting lost' by Rebecca Solnit

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I have done was walking through the tea village in Hangzhou Longjingshan (tea village) In China (actually everything in China was amazing) ♡
