Overview
About Me
I'm Swedish but I have lived a bit all over the world- in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Australia and New Zealand- so I love travel and getting to know new people! As well, I kind of prefer to get to know the places I stay in deeper than just taking lots of pictures and seeing the main sights- so meeting some 'locals' would be amazing! I love nice food, having a drink or two (partial to wine, cocktails and especially rum!), ice cream is also high on my list of things I like- so I'm constantly in search of the best ice cream place in town! :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
When i travel i really love to get to know the place i stay in a bit deeper than just 'tourist level' so for this it's great to get to meet some locals! As well, i'm very chatty and curious about new people so i'm always happy to meet up with someone new for a drink, chat or walk...

Music, Movies, and Books
My music taste is quite diverse- everythjng from rock to reagge, reaggeton, latin music, to andrea bocelli to drum and base. Not a big fan of techno or country though! I love reading- pretty much anything I can get my hands on! :) a few of my favourites are the 'oryx and crake' triology by margaret atwood, 'touching earth', 'cloud atlas', many of robert harris' books, gabriel garcia marques, isabel allende and many many more...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Working on dive boats in Australia, as well as doing some pretty cool dives both over there, in Thailand and in Cyprus!

Happy to work on your English with you- as I've spent most of my adult life in English speaking countries. I still have a Swedish accent though! :)
