Overview
About Me
Hello! I'm out traveling to explore new (Peru) as well as familiar (Brasil, Indo) parts of the world. In the process I hope to grow as a person, experience nature and hang with cool people. Do you want to talk about product design? I'm all yours :) Another new found passion of mine is Burning Man-esque festivals which I have recently started going to. I'm very excited to do more of that and would love to talk about it!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Spending time with locals when you visit a new place is the perfect combination of meeting new people, getting inside knowledge of the place your in and also a good way of giving back by sharing your own experiences from other parts of the world. It's simply the most fun way to get to know a new place while traveling!

Music, Movies, and Books
Music:
Many genres but the music I currently listen to the most are:
1. different types of folk/traditional music from around the world
2. Contemporary deep house and techno
3. The mix between nr 1 and 2 that goes under many different names such as shaman-, desert-, nomad-, circus-techno etc.
Books:
Both fiction and non fiction
Haruki Murakami is one of my favourite authors. I like fiction that are philosophical and teach me something about life such as Aldous Huxley, Herman Hesse, Kurt Vonnegut amongst others.
First book I read on my trip was "Vagabonding" by Rolf Potts which really nailed it for me when it comes to how I think about traveling. I recomend it!
Currently reading "Island" by Aldous Huxley
Next up is "Mastery of love: A practical guide to the art of relationship" by Don Miguel Ruiz
Movies:
I like sci-fi-, romantic-, horror-, thriller-, drama-movies mostly.
A few favourites amzing movie experinces from the past are "Moon", Donnie Darko" and "The groundhog day".
My top series of all time probably would include (but not be limited to): Six feet under, The wire, Black mirror and Twin peaks.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Deciding to start going in therapy to finally start working on changing the stuff in my life I wasn't happy with. From there it just snowballed and I'm a so much happier person today because of it. As the saying goes: "You have to fix yourself before being able to help others" Well maybe not entirely tru, but at least it helps :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I like everything that has to do with design, communication and art! Having worked with and at different design agencies in Stockholm I have som experience to share. The last year I have been freelancing with various areas of design (product, graphic, spacial etc.) but my dream is to start my own business selling a product, service or both.
