About Me

Hi there! I'm Marcus, originally from Karlstad and currently calling Stockholm home. I work as a data scientist, diving into the world of numbers and algorithms.

I have a genuine love for learning, experiencing new things, and finding joy in life's moments.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My interest in traveling was sparked during my studies and early career when I had the pleasure of meeting people from various countries. Couchsurfing became a natural extension of this curiosity, allowing me to learn travel hacks and enrich my experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a music enthusiast with a soft spot for good rhythm and melody. Funk, post-disco, Latin music, and 80s pop are always on my playlist.

Movies are a big part of my downtime. I appreciate the works of Kubrick and Chayefsky, but I'm not afraid to enjoy some Disney magic. Comedies like "Three Amigos" and "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" never get old!

Although I should read more, one book that left a lasting impression on me is "1984."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skiing in the French Alps was an incredible adventure. The sun, the excellent conditions – it was a dream come true. I can't wait to return for more!

Teach, Learn, Share

Currently, I'm eager to learn more Spanish and enhance my basic salsa skills. I'm always up for nerdy and techy discussions.

I'm well-versed in Python and love guiding others on their programming journey. If you're interested in starting your programming adventure or want to deepen your Python skills, I'm here to help! From the basics to more advanced concepts, let's navigate the world of coding together.

Life is a continuous learning experience, and I'm happy to share the insights I've gathered along the way. Whether it's about travel, career, or general life experiences, let's exchange thoughts and make our discussions enriching and meaningful.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As a guest, I offer good cooking skills and a handy man, of course with a knack for fixing IKEA furniture given my Swedish ancestry.
