CURRENT MISSION

My currently mission is to travel somewhere to learn about other cultures and especially language. I totaly seek new adventures, whatever comes to my mind. =)

ABOUT ME

https://www.facebook.com/per.andreas.nilsson

I am a funny, adventureseeking guy who loves to travel with the guitar. Where there's something exciting, you can find me.

To say that I'm a calm person would be a lie. But I'am quite an optimistical person with lots and lots of spair time besides school and job.
I like to ride skateboard, sing Gospel, dance jive/swing dance, travel, meet new people, play soccer and different styles of instruments.
Recently, I've realised that I may have too many interests, but who cares? =D

After school, I want to go to China or South America. There is so much that I want to explore in those areas. Culture, climate, people and food etc.

Looking forward to it, and looking forward for CouchSurfing experience!

PHILOSOPHY

Life isn't the amount of breath you take, but the moments that takes your breath away.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I bring joy and the Swedish culture. I often bring my guitar and play some music (mostly Springsteen songs). Learning and to learn others, have always been a great part of my life, as I want to grow, and help other to grow.
It is so fun to e g learn to cook one kind of food on one day, and then the second day I learn to cook my kind of food. And people can grow together.

I love when discussion comes to religion, but not everybody want to talk or hear about that subject so lets put down for now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been to Gothenburg, on the other side of Sweden this summer, and it was awesome. I really realised how life was, as a real "Gothenburger". I hope to travel there again sometimes, and visit my hosts.

I've been hosting one person from Umeå, when our town had this great festival and he had been locked out of the campingspot because he had lost his ticket.
I let him sleep besides me in my car that night. And then I've been hosting friends of mine, struggling to get things together at home, so I took care of them for about two to three days.
But still, I have not got the opportunity to host a CouchSurfing member, as noone ever contacted me about it, unfortunately...

Interests

I just looove to do as much as possible. Besides school, I sing in a Gospel Choir, taking up pianolessons and play guitar with a band. Me and some buddies like to ride skateboard in the late summernight and I also love to dance e g jive or swingdance or so. I've lately been trying out some Tango, but I havn't so much tangoexperience yet.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh, I just looove Brice Springsteen! But otherwise, I listen to quite everything, and I recently discovered how gread Tango-music really is. Tango is something that I would recommend ;) Although all songs are about Buenos Aires.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I for the first time manage to do a backflip on steady ground. It felt awesome!
And the one time when I played piano together with Stefan Gunnarsson, one of Swedens greatest pianoplayers.
(Got one picture of it, here on CS)

Seeing Bruce Springsteen, when he played Jungleland, for the first time since Clarence past away, which is like 2 years. And he broke the Swedish-record with greatest audience on a live gig, ever.
The mag. gave hiv 6 of 5 possible stars...

Also when I ate soft ice cream, directly from the maskin at work. (There was no customers in the shop, I swear!)

At the Global Gospel Festival, we sang together with many different Gospel Choirs from all around the world, in Serguels Square in Stockholm, for 4 thousand people in the audience. Together, we were about 800 people singing in one great masschoire!

Pre-order a pizza for the next morning and pay it off, for the next morning, when I've been out partying with friends at night, and then on the next morning I am tired, hungry and have a nasty hangover, and then suddenly someone rings at the door, and I go and take it, and there, right infront of mine eyes, the Pizza delivering guy from yesterday stands with a prepayed, warm pizza for me! Aaaaawesome!

Here in the north of Sweden, it happends quite often that we can wittnes the Northen Lights, and it's beatiful and really something that all people should see somethimes.

I think I can go on forever but I saves some experiences till when I met you in person :)

Teach, Learn, Share

This is why CouchSurfing is soooo cool! It isn't a free place to speep, but a great community, in which everybody can be a teacher and everyone can bo a student!

Whereever we come and wherever we go, we'll achieve experience from friends and strangers. CouchSurfing is about growing together and I think it's important to be open to learn things, and to learn other in a fun and exciting way.

I want to learn many thing, but right now, I'd love to be better in the use of the English language, and learn to cook interesting food. And I think that there is some experience, some really cool experience that is out there, and just waiting for me, but I don't know what it is, yet.

I would love to share my habits, learn you how to play bluespiano, dance swingdance, cook Swedish food, show you some swedish sports and to share my lifeexperience and achieve newones at the same time. That is CouchSurfing for me.
