Hi! My name is Paul, and I'm a Swede who just finished his studies in philosophy and politics at Oxford in England. I'm just at the end of a road trip in the West and coming to the East coast.

I am reportedly fun to hang out with, and enjoy one-too-many-drinks, interesting discussions and a well-timed cat clip. I particularly like philosophy, jazz and old Nintendo games.

I'm in Boston to check out Harvard and MIT for a potential PhD and would be grateful if you would be able to host me for a night, and also let me know what Boston life is like. In exchange we can teach you a few Swedish drinking songs. Hope to see you soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After not having couchsurfed for very long I'm now out for a trip on the West Coast of the states with a friend, and now heading over to the East coast. My own experience of couchsurfing before has been nothing but positive, and I think it's a great way to meet others.
