Overview
About Me
I'm a total travel addict and have been for as long as I remember. Since I'm majoring in behavioral science I'm very interested in how different people see things and I love to discuss pretty much anything from politics to the meaning of life to if cats or dogs are better (it's obviously cats though). I see my self as very low-maintenance and flexible so as long as I'm with someone awesome it doesn't really matter what we do, I'm up for whatever.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and exploring other countries and cultures and what better way to do that than actually hanging out with someone who knows the place? Sure, hotels are nice, but I would rather meet new people and see all the hidden gems of the city than just following a guide book.

Music, Movies, and Books
When it comes to books I love pretty much anything within the fantasy genre, both quality series such as Harry Potter and the not-so-good ones that are usually found in the young adult section. Otherwise I tend to read a lot of swedish books where the focus is more on the beautiful language than the actual plot (like "Kapitulera omedelbart eller dö). However, right now I'm doing my best to finish the A Song of Ice and Fire-series (aka Game of Thrones).
My favorite movies are Moonrise Kingdom, Gladiator, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Léon, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but I'm more into TV-series (however, don't ask me to list my favorites, I would never be able to choose).
For music, I like a little bit of everything, but mostly indie and rock. Johnossi, The Sounds, Kent, Kanye West, José Gonzales, and Of Monsters And Men are all amazing, but that's only a fraction of what I listen to.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I took my open water scuba diving certificate a couple of years ago in Bali and it was absolutely amazing!
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning more about the small cultural differences of each country (for example if you greet people with a handshake or cheek kisses) but mostly I just want to experience new places. I don't really have any talents that I can share, but I'm very open about myself and always up for a discussion, plus I make a really good spinach soup (or maybe a Swedish version of a mud cake, "kladdkaka"?).
What I Can Share with Hosts
My way of thinking, as well as helping out in forms of cooking, cleaning, etc. Whatever you want, I'm happy to help!
