ABOUT ME

This spring I'm in Amman, Jordan to study arabic at the University of Jordan!
I'm thirsty for more perspectives and more knowledge about the universe, the world and humankind.I love meeting people, loving people, sharing dreams, obstacles and possessions. I like knowing what's going on in the world, discussing politics, cultures, lifestyles, philosophy. I like feeling that the new discoveries I make get to change me as a person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love Couchsurfing as a medium for finding new, open-minded friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CouchSurfing experience was an international party on a roof terrace in Amman, Jordan. It was so great to see so many people in one place, wanting to meet new people, share food and cultures.
Me and my three friends from Sweden danced a traditional Swedish Midsomer Dance. It is very silly, but people appreciated it, and two other Couchsurfers joined in and did their best to dance sing in Swedish with us. It was awesome :).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to share with YOU: spontaneous dancing, my basic (vegetarian) cooking skills, knitting skills, Swedish, English, basic Modern Standard Arabic, inappropriate songs in Swedish. I've also got lots of experience in dreadlock-making.
Oh, and I'm an amateur hairdresser/coiffeuse! If you need a simple haircut I'd love a chance to practice to perfect my skills!

I'm eager to learn more languages, and eager to listen to your stories, opinions, poetry, music!

If you're kind enough to host me, I'll be happy to help the household any way I can!
