ABOUT ME
Update: Just moved to the states. Will update profile more shortly!
I´m a young guy living my life in the beautiful city of Gothenburg. Most people would describe me as nice, relaxed and intelligent.
I work at the University as a PhD-student and spend a lot of time in a lab or at a computer, so when I'm in my spare time, I tend to move around a lot. Walking, biking or climbing.
I love traveling, seeing new places and meeting new people. This can be done both in my hometown or on the other side of the world.
I also really like getting and sending postcards! If you stay at my place, please send me a postcard when you get back home, or to some other interesting place! You absolutely don't have to, but it will make me happy!
PHILOSOPHY
This world needs more love.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was in Egypt my brother and I went snorkling by the beach, in rather shallow water. We saw some corals and fishes and decided to continue outward. The amount of corals and fishes increased and suddenly the bottom dropped away and we were at a 10m high coral cliff face with fishes everywhere. I have never seen anything so beautiful before!
Teach, Learn, Share
Oh... I guess most people don´t want a physics lecture? I teach physics at the Uni, and could share some of that, but I also know a lot about many things, and can discuss almost anything, as long as it´s not sport-related.
If you host me, and aren't a geocacher, I can most likely show you places in your own city which you had no idea excised. If you are a geocacher, even better!
I also love to show people around and play the guide. Regardless of where I am :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have a box of copies of my thesis :)
I enjoy playing the tour guide, and will provide you with a map and some recommendations for good places to visit. The apartment is also very conveniently located, close to Järntorget and the city center.
