About Me

CURRENT MISSION

i'm doing a little bit of everything and it changes all the time!

ABOUT ME

i am doing these somewhat theoretical studies at the university to become an environmental scientist, but as an extra-job on the side i'm doing this thing that has more to do with people. i love the outdoors, skiing, climbing, kayaking, biking, hiking... and as a profession i would love to be able to do something to preserve the nature in the best way we can. at the same time i love the city and the great mix of people there. i believe that working with sustainable devolopment in the first hand is a social mission, what i mean is that fighting the injustice in society is a way, or THE way to prevent us from destroying the earth. that is where i want to be in some years, working with people and the enviorenment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i think the cs-philosophy is great. it's a very good way to fight in these suspscious times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i just got started! i am moving around quite a lot in gothenburg at the moment. but i am trying to look for something a little bit more stable. every now and then i might be able to host someone anyway.

Interests

people, music, dancing, skiing, climbing, biking, hiking, knitting, reading, cartoons, writing, languages, travelling, i like lots of things. it's hard to make a list like this. i like eating too, but it might be weird to put that as an interest...? i like eating, but not as much cooking. i'm a perfect dinnerguest! i won't interfer with your cooking but i'll eat with passion and help you do the dishes after!
