About Me

Hello! I’m glad to belong to the couch surfer community :),

I have been in for 12 years now ! I am living in Stockholm together with my wife Ingrid and our son Léonard, into the center of Stockholm, Södermalm.
I have mainly experienced couch surfing as a host, when I was living in Lyon (France) in the very old city center and in Malmö. That was really great !!

I used to host several people and it was really nice experiences all the time, and good friendship afterwards !

We are now based in Stockholm, where there are great climbing walls and nice climbing spots outdoor in case you are willing to climb🤞.

I used to work in Helsingborg for a coffee Factory as Maintenance manager (Zoégas, old typical coffee from Skåne, I can give you a hint of taste if you are willing to ;)), and I am now working for the Swedish Transport Authority (Trafikverket).
Ingrid is currently working at the court of justice. We like going out for sure, taking a drink with friends and other people, discovering new places in where to go, outside touristic places, go to concerts, acoustic jam sessions in bars, and of course cinema, café, bars !!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are living in Stockholm in an appartement, 2 room, not that big but still a couch that can be used by others. It gives the possibility for people to travel and come to visit Sweden, even thought they would have thought that it was not possible. That's great !!
We have a nice couch and good dinners (we cook a lot) to offer for those who need ;)
