About Me

I grew up in a small village in the Stockholm archipelago. So I had a lot of access to the sea and since my father is an old sailing instructor it only came naturally that he took me and my sister hiking. But when I grew older and the city started to look more attractive then my small village, the sailing and hiking became less occurring.

Instead I started dancing. I started in a school that had a singing, dancing, theater and music profile and danced a lot in my spare time. So I have tried a lot of different styles from ballet to salsa, but the main focus was always breakdance and later on popping.

In high school, thanks to an awesome teacher, I discovered how fun learning can be (this teacher of mine brought me along to his evening courses in philosophical history at the university). I was also very lucky to have the opportunity to participate, as one out of two representatives, in the philosophy Olympic in Denmark. So philosophy was my gateway to other studies, now I'm majoring in economics but have also studied philosophy, political science and will study sociology, gender studies and economic history.

But right now I have taken a gap year to travel the world. So far I have been in India for three months, then I went to Cambodia and Thailand. Now I'm back in Europe, I landed in Rome and then hitch hiked my way to Barcelona

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is more interesting to really get into the culture when traveling!

Interests

Breakdancing is one thing that I like. An other thing is knowledge, to learn and share it with people that I meet!
