ABOUT ME

An honest, life-loving, swede who loves travelling! I'm a very simple yet responsible person who doesn't demand much! I love experiencing and understanding different cultures and I am myself mixed; my father is from Ethiopia and my mom is from Moldova. I have lived in Sweden almost all my life. I love sharing experiences with people and I am always up for a new adventure.

It's hard to describe a person, much easier when you meet. But here's a try. People who've been asked, describe me as a warm, humourous, feel-good person who doesn't judge. I like that description. I'm a control freak at times, especially when it comes to school-stuff... but in the same time I really love organized chaos when I'm in my relax mode (which is the mode you will meet me in)..I am spontaneous, or rather flexible is the word I'm looking for:) When I was travelling in south east Asia, I met a group of south american guys from Chile, Argentina and Brasil. We grew into one big family and travelled for weeks with eachother. My nickname in the group was "happiness", since I was always wearing a smile on my face :) Guess that gives you a hint of who I am.

I live in the north, Sweden to be exact, and if/when you come here I would be glad to show you around the beautiful city of Stockholm!

Allt he best!

PHILOSOPHY

Make it work.

It's an amazing concept! I don't have a couch yet so I cannot host anyone, but I gladly hang out in Stockholm and show you the best places to go here!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in a vietnamese war museum an american veteran came up to me and my mates to teach us something about the vietnam war and also repented that he was a part of it. Felt like a moment where you could actually touch real, important history!

Also, when I was in Norway, me and a friend did some trekking and those mountains are really amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I find many, many things interesting. I have a strong so called "kunskapstörst", it's swedish and means "thirst for knowledge". :)Basically everyone has something interesting to tell (mostly, anyway) ..
