About Me

Adventurous soul of 26 winters struggling to be more certain. Currently studying my fourth year of uni in Stockholm.

Strongly dislike describing myself for some reason, but I'm a humble person (although its really ironic to state) and try my best at being honest without hurting anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Too poor to be living in hostels all the time, and too interested in strangers to not be here.

Interests

It feels wrong sayong travelling is an interest of mine. It feels more like a basic human need for me, like eating, sleeping or going to the toilet. When I'm not travelling my legs start itching.

Painting/drawing, chess and reading is pretty much all I do when I'm not studying or sharing time with my loved ones.

  • board games
  • chess
  • reading
  • traveling
  • painting
  • drawing
  • teaching

Music, Movies, and Books

I've probably read the Harry Potter series more than 10 times.

Books I've loved since; 'Atlas Shrugged', 'The Count of Monte Cristo', 'Confessions of a Buddhist Atheist', 'The Process','1984', 'Amulet', 'The Road' and 'No country for old men'... And the list might become too long. Kafka and Dumas are the best!

Edward Norton is in most of my favorite movies, since he's crazy good. '25th Hour' being the best. I also consider Wes Anderson's movies to be the most heartwarming art.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is impossible for me to answer for a lot of reasons.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play a lot of board games, card games and family games with my friends. Although I hear I'm a bad teacher when passing the games on 😛

I think the moment shared between an artist painting/drawing and the model is a supercool one. I can be on either side of that :)

I badly yearn to speak fluent French and wish for anyone and everyone to teach me some just by being patient with me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

An honest time with a stranger, a great game of chess or a decent portrait drawing of my host or all three.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Denmark, England, Ethiopia, France, Germany, India, Iran, Iraq, Italy, Kenya, Malaysia, Netherlands, Qatar, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Syrian Arab Republic, Tanzania, Thailand, Turkey

Countries I’ve Lived In
