About Me

I recently finished school as a Marketing major and I'm planning to take some time off from the harsh Nordic winter to travel and explore new, warm, places and visiting old friends & family on the way. At home, I work part-time as a personal trainer and nutrition counselor while trying to learn how to meditate and hanging out with my friends on my spare time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing lets me connect with people from all over the world and delve into new cultures so that I can really feel it "from the inside", as well as meeting new, cool people while just being at home in Sweden. All-in-all, I've spent an awesome time and become friends with all the couchsurfers I've gotten the pleasure to meet, and will meet many more to come from all parts of the world!

Interests

Going to cool places such as climbing the Eiffel Tower, or cruising the Pacific Coast Highway in Califoria. Experiencing another culture by visiting cafés, walking around in town and taking nice photographs of beautiful things and places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When me and my friend were at the Eiffel Tower, we took the stairs to the first platform. My friend suffers from a paralyzing fear of heights, so it was quite terrifying for her, besides the physical part of climbing hundreds of meters. But I wanted her to overcome her phobia, so I walked with her, and pushing her - without overwhelming her of course - all the way to the second highest platform. We were incredibly glad she made it, and we took some unforgettable pictures from there. I only wished though that I took her all the way up - we'll save that for the next time!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love it if you could teach me how to speak in your language - and I will teach you some of the languages I've studied :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you how to play the guitar, how to juggle, and how to speak Chinese. Or some advice on nutrition and exercise if you want to stay fit and healthy :)
