About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying myself and making others enjoy themselves

ABOUT ME

Im a guy from Sweden in the northern hemisphere who loves meeting people and exchanging cultural oddities. I guess im pretty open minded and an easy being to interact with. I love long, often a bit boozed, philosophising about everything that matters. Music is probably what i know best and im into most stuff concerning music.

PHILOSOPHY

this is a hard one.,. i guess id say respect will take you pretty far no matter how you chose to show it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before i joined CS i had a prophetic encounter back in sweden. I were at this punk gig with a lot of local people and spotted this guy who seemed really lonely drinking his beer al l by himself. I walked up to him and chatted a bit and eventually offered my couch since he had nowhere to stay. He had gone to this gig 600 kilometres all by himself which is pretty impressive. He turned out to be a awesome guy who offered me a place to stay if i ever went to his town! couchsurfing without the label!

Lots of friends falling asleep in my couch at late nights playing tony hawk on the xbox :) really weird since my couch at that time was amazingly uncomfortable..

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a music geek of sorts. hard to speak in terms of genres, i simply enjoy good music. But i guess i mostly listen to dirty punk, growly metal, reggae, ska and those old rock bands your parents probably listened to

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i once bought a beer for like 40 cents in china. . that was pretty rad

Teach, Learn, Share

i think teaching and learning is something you do automatically. everytime you interact with someone or something there is a exchange, might it be good or bad. its so fundamental, yet we narrow the words "education" and "teaching" down to this formal and static thing that takes place in closed classrooms in school. to me its an everyday matter, just as important as breathing or sleeping
