About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to travel, meet new people, have fun, enjoy life and see as much as possible of the world

ABOUT ME

8 years ago I decided to pack my bags and leave London, an amazing city where I spent five years of my life. I embarked on the greatest adventure of my life and travelled South East Asia and the Pacific, and have now ended up in Sydney, Australia!

I'm a big dreamer, traveller and adventurous at heart. I absolutely love travelling and have travelled ever since I moved away from home (Sweden) when I was 18. Love meeting people from all corners of the world. Easy-going and always up for a chat with old and new friends. And I am, of course, always up for new adventures!!

PHILOSOPHY

I write life.

Blow your own damn mind.

The world is your playground. Never turn down an adventure.

If your dream doesn't scare you, it's not big enough.

€œThe biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.€• Oprah Winfrey

A wise girl knows her limits, a great girl knows she has none...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been hosted by, and hosted, some really wonderful people. This whole couchsurfing phenomenon is amazing! I have great couchsurfing experiences and memories. Most from the states but am very much looking forward to meeting fellow couchsurfers elsewhere in the world!

Interests

Travelling, travelling, and oh... more travelling! Adrenaline kicks entice me. I've skydived, rock climbed, bungyjumped and gone white water rafting. I love big roller coasters and would love to scuba dive, abseil down mountains/waterfalls and basically do anything that would make my pulse go 180.

I also enjoy hiking, sketching, hanging out with friends & family, dancing and 'getting down' to good tunes, going to the cinema/musicals/concerts, eating (I heart food and am not afraid of trying new edible stuff), shopping, paint (oil), listening to music, going to the gym or for a long walk, and other daily activities.

Oh, and I cannot stress enough my passion for meeting new people. I love getting to know people from all parts of the world and listen to their life stories, interests, dreams and ambitions. Either over a drink or two, a bite to eat, or during a chill-out session! :-)
