About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Am on a photography project on Couchsurfing!

ABOUT ME

I am a social and perky and curious person.A little chaotic at times. I like meeting people which mostly my job as a photographer enables me to do. Being respectful,considerate, honest, sincere and authentic I find very important. Not only towards human beings, but to anything that is alive.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard and be nice to people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've heard of cousurfing from a friend and am now working on a photography project regarding couchsurfing. The openness to invite people and stay with others I find fantastic!
I'd like to stay with people that let me take a portrait of them of as well as the sofa! Total openness about the photos. I'll always show them and send them!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Fantastic stays in Stockholm!!!!

Interests

Next to photography which takes up most of my time, I love spending time with my friends, boyfriend, love cooking, doing pilates and fencing. Enjoy arts, architecture, fashion....pretty much a lot!!
I collect bouncing balls. Since last year I have a little garden where I love to grow veggies ( and flowers as well to support bees and butterflies as their numbers are decreasing), watching films, reading ( though I mostly read 4 books at the same time depending on where I am in the house and which books I find there...)
