About Me

I’m a Kenyan born, Sweden raised girl who’s now lived in 5 countries. Traveled to a handful of countries now and I just absolutely love meeting people from all over the world. Experiencing new cultures, ways of life, different perspectives. I want to listen to everything people have to say!

I am an ambivert. As much as I love to be out and going, I also appreciate being by myself. This balance is very important to me.

When I am extroverted I'm a very talkative and chronic yes-sayer. I want to do it all and have it all! I love arranging extravagant, themed dinners for my good friends where I shower them with love made food and cocktails. I am an amateur chef and bartender so to say!

When I am introverted, my energy is more focused inwards. Being introspective, tending to whatever needs I have that cannot be fullfilled outwards. This is a time I love to indulge in creative outlets that are sometimes best done alone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently I remembered that I have a couchsurfing account that I barely ever used.

I got on here when I was younger, had recently moved to Barcelona 2019, and wanted to connect! However I'm back home in Sweden now and being such a social and warm, curious and open minded person. I want to start welcoming people to my home if they're travel to south of Sweden/Copenhagen.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Afrobeats, afrohouse, old school soul/hip hop&r&b, alternative/neo soul/r&b, soul house, amongst others!

My favorite book of this year is indetermined. But I'm currently reading Circe and enjoying it so far!

Movies: Interstellar, Captain Fantastic, Sleepers (the hardest movie I have ever watched)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moved to Barcelona alone, knowing not one soul, spontaneously at the age of 18.

Teach, Learn, Share

Would be lovely to speak Spanish/Swahili together and perhaps you can teach me about baking as this is a recent curiosity of mine. But I'm open minded to all skills/experiences you have!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Just a good time. I'm a dancer of salsa and bachata (but other styles too). I think I'd click best with playful people who want to cook together, go out and grab a drink. Go to a roller skate disco and fall flat on our arses, go to standup and laugh till our core hurts. Go out dancing until the sun comes up (depending on the time of year though you might just never see it!).

I can also appreciate calmer activities like a good hike and yoga for example. Sweden is beautiful and there's lots of places I could take us hiking!
