Overview
About Me
I’m a music teacher and freelance as a musician. Once a year I usually tour with my Swedish punk band. I am very easy going, open minded, always have a smile on my face and love to meet new people! I just graduated and are having a summer break before my teaching work starts in august! On a normal day might go climbing or dancing with friends, practice my instrument, having a drink or just chillin with a walk, book or movie. If you are a SURFER then here is some info for us to get along and to give you some sort of idea of what to expect from me: I'm trying to live my life as a vegan which means I'll only serve you good (hopefully ) food without any meat or dairy products. You on the other hand are free to eat what you want if we go out or end up at a restaurant/bbq. If I have time I’d like to hang out and get to know you, see what kind of person you are and exchange experiences. I’m a anti racist, feminist and lefty therefore it’s important for me that you’re not a fan of Trump or any other right wing similar idiot. Plus points: if you speak Spanish I’d love to learn since I’ve been trying for a year but no one to talk to You don't have to answer every point I've written, just something that lets me know you read it. And also don't forget to write what your idea of your stay is! Please don't copy paste because it's so obvious and I'll decline.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My first CS experiences was on my EuroTrip in June 2016 and afterwards I was hooked. I’ve met so many awesome hosts and surfers and a lot of them have become close friends
Interests
I play a lot of different instruments and listen to all kinds of music. Right now I practice a lot of violin and accordion because it's just so much fun!
I love "extreme" sports, everything with at board under my feet is really nice. Been snowboarding and skateboarding since 10 years old.
I love to climbing indoors and out doors for exercise.
One year ago I started dancing Salsa and Bachata!! :D
I like the beer and to socialize with friends.
- dancing
- music
- extreme sports
Music, Movies, and Books
I listen and play (guitar) to everything between Jazz and Punk/rock. These days it’s mainly Latin music because I can’t stop dancing while I hear it.
I also love Disney and Musicals.
I’m updated with most of the Netflix series but Rick n Morty & South Park I can watch over and over. Black Mirror and HBO series is also
Everything with Christofer Nolan, Tarantino and David Fincher is amazing. Hugh fan of the Matrix and V for vendetta.
I try to read more but I can't find the time except when I'm traveling and barely even then.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Edit 190808: Went to Cuba and Mexico for a month trying to learn Spanish, it didnt went that good but the trip was awesome
Edit 160704: Doing my first EuroTrip alone in Europe for 3 weeks. It gave me the travel fever and I just want to get back out there!
First thing I wrote here: *Nerd alert*: When a full orchestra played my arrangement for a song I wrote at Berwaldhallen in Stockholm, it was powerful
Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you around in Stockholm, show you the life as a swede and the secret nice spots you probably wouldn't find without me
I can teach guitar, piano from a beginner/advanced level and Swedish if that would be of interest! Maybe you want to learn salsa or bachata? 🕺
I can share some crazy stories about my band, travels and a lot more!
One thing I really want to learn is Spanish because my mother is from Chile and I never spoke it while growing up (long story I can tell you irl if interested). I love to share and discuss the differences of our cultures, but that usually comes neutral when I start going on about the Swedish monopoly on beer and other stuff.
