Born in Sweden, lived in the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and Brazil, think of traveling a necessity and too often for my wallet get the itch to go somewhere. I love music a lot and play piano and lately also alto saxophone, mostly jazz oriented but am up for playing almost anything but despacito.

Right now living in Nairobi, Kenya working for the UN

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's great to have access to this massive community of travellers from all over the place, and hope to meet up with some interesting people!

Jazz, hip hop, funk, rock, pop, dirty techno and soulful blues.. everything that sounds good!
