CURRENT MISSION

live the dream

ABOUT ME

A special girl won me over so I now base out of Sweden with my princess. I still try to spend a good portion of my time wandering as the travel bug is far from out of my system. I spend most of my free time rock climbing which is more a lifestyle than a hobby for me. Climbing also serves as the purpose for much of my travels.

PHILOSOPHY

life is too short to be unhappy. bad things happen but you are in control of how you respond to it. life is what you make of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was raised by loving parents that always had their couch open and hundreds of travelers from around the world came through. Kind of a atypical upbringing but i wouldn't have it any other way and I carry on the tradition of opening up my couch when i have one.
