About Me
From 2009-2011 I did my studies in social science. It was an amazing and lifechanging experience as I got to travel alot, not only exploring the world outside myself, but inside as well. After I finished my studies I lived in Denmark one year, but then decided to go to Finland, which is my second home for three months, but ended up staying to years. Now I've been home for almost a year again, working, doing the usual 9 to 5, and it's time to shake things up! Go to "Why I'm on Couchsurfing" to find out how I'm planning to do that.. :P
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
So one year, well, actually just 9 months in the same company and I'm ready for change! Because I studied around the world, I am olso very fortunate to have friends many places, and one of them, my best friend, I will be visiting in Rio this coming April. For this reason I am now getting active on couchsurfing, hoping I can find some nice, kind and fun people who would like to share their couch, and lives, with me for a few days.
I am dedicating this coming trip to mindfulness, so it would be great to possibly stay with people who are interested in yoga and meditation. I am hoping to enjoy healthy living and eating options in the big cities, and to experience nature and people in a relaxed way. Hope it makes sense.. :)
