About Me

I enjoy coffee, outdoors and arts! But don’t assume I’m a bone dry and boring artsy type: quite the contrary. I enjoy babbling with people as well as sharing a comfortable quietness. I used to travel a lot more, but as so often in life, things change and more colors get added to my life. Nevertheless, I still occasionally manage to steal a little bit of time for hitting the road; sometimes I go trekking, sometimes I enjoy more urban sites. But one thing is for sure: locals are always the best experts of any place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When you’ve seen one hotel room, cheap or not so cheap, you’ve seen them all. What makes a place is the people; and who would know about the chatacter of different places than those who live there? Modern world sometimes lacks the human interaction, leaving it all to apps, blogs and tips that somebody else wrote or created.

I used to Couchsurf more, but as travelling needed to be put aside for a period of time am starting again with a fresh account.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once you’ve seen the Autumn rage of the Atlantic from the Scottish coast you may getvthe feeling of ”wow”.

Teach, Learn, Share

Cross stitchess, photo tips, call card designs, cat cartoons - you want a tip or an art class with such stuff, we’re going to have jolly good time!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whether you like company who can keep up a comfortable silence, bubbling babbling or sharing anecdotes of past travels and plans for the future, I’m the person to sit down with. As a guest I’m independent, quietish and known for not leaving a mess behind, but rather cleaning up while my hosts are gone - unless specifically told not to. ;)

I deliver better jokes than dinners, but will give cooking a go if that is something all agree upon.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, Cuba, Estonia, France, Italy, Jordan, Sweden, United Kingdom
