About Me

Just realized I am maybe having a hard time here because of no references. I haven't been so active, often just find cheap boring hotels and wish I'd gone to the trouble of requesting a couch instead.. Speaks a bit for my spontaneity. The times I have stayed with people and even hosted have been on my older daughters CS account. Never thought of doing each person separately when traveling together... Guess that's something to think about in the future.

CURRENT MISSION

To escape the idiots!

ABOUT ME

Jeez... Maybe someday I'l have time to write a book.. I try to be a good person, try to be honest, try to be open minded, try to be smart, try to be happy and make others happy.

These things are importnat to me, and at this point in my life getting to be extremely difficult because of the society Im stuck in. I have to escape before I go crazy :)

PHILOSOPHY

Yin-Yang is applicable to anything and everything you can think of - very important to me. will make any complicated situation simple, will make you always see the bright side when all looks dark.

I like to think I don't lust after things, I try to be happy in the moment and believe that chasing a dream is not really what its about - it the journey that counts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I wish I had more, I like to just meet people and become friends rather randomly. At the supermarket, on the street etc. But in Sweden this is extremely difficult.

Interests

Computers, Life, People

I like to fix things. I like to teach and help people.

  • books
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • teaching
  • beaches

Music, Movies, and Books

Not really "into" the arts.. living life first hand is art to me

Music tastes have broadened a bit, like classic rock, psychedelic rock and most everything else except classical and jazz / blues.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a beach of a small island, I saw the sun set and realized that at that moment I really didnt need anything else in this entire world - what I had at that very moment was plenty.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can advise and fix Apple products - if anyone needs help or advice
I am often busy with life, but try to be there for people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a pedagog (teacher) and a technician. Unusual combo, I'll fix your broken things and teach you all about how not to break them again! Lol really I love to make things last as long as possible. Really upsetting how everything is disposable these days! We must stop consuming! (See I'm doing it again)

I've moved to Bangkok from the countryside to work as a teacher. I have a small apartment (room) and an air mattress which I would gladly sleep on if someone would rather have the bed.. :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Cambodia, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Singapore, Sweden, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Sweden, Thailand, United States
