About Me

I would say that I also love to travel but that I am exploring new ways of doing this, that allow me to move more slowly, have less of an impact on our climate, and connect more with people who live in the areas I'm in.

After having lived in a few different countries in Europe for the last ten years I've recently moved home to Sweden. I'm in Stockholm at the moment but am hoping to move more north in the future. I'm currently living with my parents, that's why I can't host anyone at the moment.

I like to chat and get to know new people but I also appreciate silences. I love live music and dancing (and contact improv!), yoga and meditation and being outdoors; especially hiking and camping.

I'm also interested in how we organise ourselves politically and socially and would like to become more directly involved in climate activism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Partly because I'm trying to live on less money (which allows me to work less and instead engage in things that are important to myself and those around me). But also because I enjoy getting to know people who live in the places that I visit, and discover the place through/with them rather than through a guidebook. I also feel that it is valuable to offer and receive help to others rather than only deal in money.

Teach, Learn, Share

I usually feel a bit shy about teaching people things but I've tentatively started to share my skills in meditation, yoga and contact improv with others. I also really enjoy cooking for others and making little trinkets out of things that I find.

I like learning about all kinds of things from other people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversations and food. And, if we're both feeling up for it, a walk or something like that.
