Matilda Maja Liv Dahlstrand

I'm a curious, queer, honest and loving person, mostly with a smile on my face. At least when traveling! My biggest interests are meeting new people, seeing new places and learning about new things! I also love arts and crafts. I'm a singer in a musical duo and if you also play some instrument, I'd love to jam together!

I used to climb a lot, and work as a youth instructor with cooperation exercises, climbing and high rope-courses. I really loved that job! Swimming, bathing or just sitting in a sauna are all things that make me happy and calm. I do some yoga, and I'm interested in health and healing my body with happy, yummy food. Mainly vegetarian, but flexible. Electrify me by taking me to the best or coziest restaurant you know.

I would not say no to a night in a tent in the forest, but neither a night shaking my body on a dance floor. Always up for a new adventure, so hit me up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always been an extrovert, looking to gain new insights and knowledge from other people and that's why I couchsurf!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

How do I pick just one? Life is full of amazing things!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always hungry for new knowledge! I want to learn more about other cultures. I'm curious about the brain and about different ways of living and relating to other people. I see all kinds of relationships, new as old, as golden and I will treat you with respect and love no matter our differences.

Also, cliche as it may sound, communication really is key!

What I Can Share with Hosts

What I can offer you is an interesting conversation about the many wonders of the world, lots of laughter and maybe a jam session or two! I'll teach you some Swedish, cook you a great meal or just be your adventure buddy for a day!

I live in Gothenburg and can present you to the most gorgeous smoothie bar with the best gelato in the world. I dare say it's better than in Italy! (Don't you trust me? Then let me show you!)
