About Me

*Currently living in Taiwan*

I was born in Sweden but because of my dad's job I grew up in multiple countries. Among them: Indonesia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Italy before returning to Sweden. Hence I have an addiction to traveling and love meeting new people, I also get a bit restless staying in one place for too long ;)

I recently graduated as a Chemical Engineer at Lund's University and have been on an exchange semester in the US. I took a break from my studies in 2015 to partake in an internship in Taiwan which lasted five months. Afterwards I went traveling around Asia and Australia for seven months.

I love climbing, hiking and all sports in general though I might not be so good at it all. But I'm also a bit of a nerd and love video games. If I had to describe my self in a few words: Outgoing, adventure seeking, flexible and chill.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A while back when I was travelling in the US I didn't find a place to stay during my last stops before heading home and so I turned to Couchsurfers. In return I met awesome people, my host picked me up from the station, showed me around town and gave me a lift to the airport afterwards. I thought it was so much fun and a great experience. Hence, I decided to start couchsurfing when I got back to my home university.

Interests

I love traveling (whenever I have money for it at least) and anything that has to do with outdoors. I always love meeting new people. I studied chemical engineering and therefore am a bit of a science nerd and a gamer. I like getting into conversations about other people's life stories, experiences and politics is always interesting.

Music, Movies, and Books

For books I'm mostly into sci-fi and fantasy stories, but I can enjoy some good fiction every now and then. As for movies I love comedy, adventure, crime, sci-fi and fantasy. I have no preferences when it comes to music, I randomly love individual songs from various artists.
