Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is not just to travel to see another place, but to travel and Learn other places!
ABOUT ME
I love to learn about other cultures and through that understand how people and society works.
I am very kind, and a little shy, easy to approach and always give new people a chance.
PHILOSOPHY
I want us all to be nice, kind and understanding to eachother!
Life is not about getting stuck in an office, working too hard only for others - work on yourself and enjoy things around you. Look around you and realise the amazing things/people/places that are around you every day!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing is not a well-known thing in Sweden so I was first introduced to it by Australians when I came to London. I thought it was a great idea!
I haven't slept on anybody's couch yet though I've offered mine to some.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Tough one.... many.
But what pops up first in my mind is the time we took the car along the Californian coast to a beach north of Santa Barbara. He was surfing, I was swimming, and we eat peanut-butter-jelly sandwiches for lunch, dinner and breakfast. We watched the dolphins jumping in the ocean as the sun was setting and we slept in the car boot on the beach. That's one thing I'll never forget.

Another great memory is from Koh Samui, Thailand... Met some people after sunset on the beach - I joined them around the bonfire and we drank vodka from coconuts. Then we all went skinny dipping in the sea and we realised we were glowing! It was tiny, tiny jellyfish which glowed when disturbed... It looked like we were swimming amongst the stars in space. Magical.
