About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"The more I consider it, the more obvious it is to me that life simply is meant to be lived!"

ABOUT ME

A positive, enthusiastic and over-social guy, twenty-eitghteen years old and still enjoying the discovery of life's vaste opportunities!

Important "philosophies" of mine are serendipity (try catching a few more of all the chances that comes by, and even seek them up!) and salutogenes (rather than focus on problems and risks, look at what is actually working and relatively healthy. Do more of that stuff!).

If you ever did the Myers-Briggs' test I am a definite ENFP. But I guess we're quite over-represented in this forum...? :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Ah, I just wrote that above! Well... ctrl+c, ctrl+v...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mi casa, tu casa! And vice versa?! :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted and surfed. Loved them both!

Interests

Family, friends, nature, travelling, sports, socializing. Getting to know new people and learning their cultures, view of life. And maybe a few usable phrases in different languages. Swahili anybody?

  • education
  • traveling
  • socializing
  • sports
  • teaching
  • languages
  • social work

Music, Movies, and Books

Aaaah... that will be a long list. Well, anyway... usually I enjoy things that makes me happy, so maybe horror films and very depressing lyrics are under representated here...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I participated in starting a student organisation in Uganda. That rocked! Malawi is another love of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've done a few years in social work, so maybe I can share my experiences of the Swedish society, work with youths, peer education and SRHR (sexual and reproductional health and right issues)?

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Denmark, Greece, India, Italy, Malawi, Norway, Uganda, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
