About Me

CURRENT MISSION

is to have no fear.

ABOUT ME

"If we do not exist for each other,
if not everything I see exists for you,
if I cannot give you everything,
why do we exists in this loneliness?"
- Jenny Tunedal

I am a hong kongese swede (aka. hong kong chinese born in Sweden). At the moment I just graduated with my masters in Textile Fine Art, at Konstfack in Stockholm. At the moment I work part-time with teaching kids to draw and also at the Stockholm Kulturhuset as a guide and host. Unfortunately I am unable to host since I share a flat with an older man that do not share my philosophy of couchsurfing.

Besides Art and Culture I have great interests in seeing and experiencing new things on planet earth. I appreciate all I learn from each new encounter be it in a person, a place or a moment.
Love, happiness and friendships are the things that make my life amazing, it sounds cheesy but it fits so well into my life.

PHILOSOPHY

"Not all those who wander are lost."

"I want to see everything the world has to offer me.
And I want to show everything that I have to offer it."

"Nothing will work unless you do."

"I'm 86 years old, and what a life I've had! And I still want more!"

"El mar se mide por olas
...nosotros por lagrimas"

"Tal vez me encuentre perdido y solo,
abandonado y triste,
pero me he perdido en la inmensidad de mi caminar,
en la expansion del horizonte a mis pasos dados."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host, I surf, I participate in this beautiful way of meeting ppl (and the best way to know a new place).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First time I surfed a couch was in Busan and I could not have had a better experience. We were four couhsurfers (one aussie, one british, one swede and one korean) on the floor and sofas of the amazing host Anna Sidou! Thank you all for making that trip GREAT!
