About Me

Current hosting situation:
I am unfortunately not able to host via couchsurfing right now. I currently live and work on a commercial ship for most part of the year.

Who am I:
I grew up on the countryside around the Gothenburg area on the west coast of Sweden.

While starting University studies in 2010, I moved in to the city of Gothenburg and started hosting on Couchsurfing.
I later graduated University and since Jan 2016, I have spent most of my life and time working and living on ships mainly in the Mediterranean and Caribbean/Southern USA waters.

I love to learn and a great pleasure in my life is to spend time with and listen to clever people talk. Technical challenges tends to disrupt the little body mechanism in charge of my self control and prioritization, but the positive outcome after a few sleepless nights is usually a little bit more wisdom and the great feeling of achievement.

Interests

Engineering, exercising and life!

When not working, I spend a large amount of time in front of my computer tinkering with and reading about technology.

Many people around me are deep into the art of bicycling and I am trying to keep myself updated and active even though I spend a large part of the year on the ocean.
When I get the chance, I grab first available bicycle and bike it until I'm halfway lost and tired. Then I make my way home, watch a movie and consider myself an explorer for the rest of the day.

Music, Movies, and Books

I do watch a considerable amount of movies and I have in the last years come to realize that I am a huge fan of - among others - South Korean movies.

Did you not know South Korea made great movies?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_South_Korea
