CURRENT MISSION

Solving the time-money equation

ABOUT ME

My friends say that I'm a gypsetter. It's a combination of gypsy and jetset, meaning that instead of working towards career and material assets, you work towards self-dependence and freedom. You measure wealth and success in life by experiences and encounters. And that works for me. =)

I like sounds; rain hitting the tent roof, crackling fire, waves hitting the shore, Cadd9+4 plucked on a guitar and of course the sound of silence.

I like the sun; I can fall asleep in the sun, dreaming that I'm lying in the sun. Sweden is probably not the best place to be sunwise.

I like people; people who express something, people with fire in their eyes, eager to learn anything about anything from their fellow man.

I like lying on couches, staring up into the ceiling, analyzing nooks and crannies and contemplating the state of things.

I also like music, photography, sailing, the ocean, everything and nothing.
Other than that I'm just a normal weird couch surfing guy that's open minded, uncomplicated and curious on most things.

PHILOSOPHY

It's when you get lost that you find yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the time being, I mostly attend meetings, but I'll try to make time for some hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a couple of people, I've surfed once or twice and attended quite some meetings in Stockholm, Uppsala, Linköping and Norrköping (Sweden). Hopefully I'll get to do more of all this.

Interests

Music, photography, sailing, doing nothing and everything.
Watching the sun set into the sea with an open fire, a guitar or two and friendly people, contemplating life's capriciousness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I usually find greatness in small things, but they are harder to describe.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could share my comprehensive knowledge of everything and nothing. But I guess what I could share most is music. Oh, and I can also teach you fold those cranes with flapping wings.
