About Me

I’m a student, climate activist and freelance artist. Right now I’m writing my Human Ecology thesis to finish up my master at Lund University. 4th of March, I’ll be heading to Morocco to spend two months at a permaculture farm called Sanctuary Slimane, half an hour’s drive outside of Marrakech. Here, I’ll be contributing with manual labour at the farm to gain practical knowledge in Human Ecology. I will also be writing my thesis, and perhaps - if the last month allows for it (time-wise) - explore sound and performance work with my two peers Hanna and Leo who’ll also be staying at the farm.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
