Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn more! About the world and myself.
ABOUT ME
Now that I've finished my MA, I'm still trying to figure out what exactly it is that I want to do with my life - I'm doing an internship with a small publisher, and soon I'll be moving on to an internship with a larger one, but really, all I want to do is work with and talk about books.
PHILOSOPHY
Live. Everything else is just a waste of time.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I try to host people whenever I can, but I haven't had much experience yet because people always wanted to surf my couch when I wasn't there. But who knows, new town, new luck...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed Joakim's couch in Stockholm, but as I said, I haven't had any guests yet...

Music, Movies, and Books
Books: anything by Roald Dahl and Astrid Lingren, victorian novels, urban fantasy, literature and non-fiction about the Holocaust, children's literature and basically pretty much anything that will hold still long enough for me to read.
Movies: Lady Henderson Presents, Keeping Mum, Mary Poppins, basically anything which is either black-humored or for children.
Music: any, really, as long as it's not computer-generated.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Seeing Northern Lights was definitely awesome - and pink dolphins swimming in the Amazon. I hope to see more awesomeness though because there's bound to be more of it out there...
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy learning anything that I don't know yet (so there's a lot of choice), and if anyone likes to hear something about literature or random movie trivia I'm more than willing to share ;)
On the more practical side, I can knit, crochet, and use a sewing machine, as well as being a pretty good cook and baker when I have the time - I'm more than willing to share my expertise!
