Easy going and relaxed Swede who are currently delivering ice cream in Norway during the summer and travelling in the winter. 2016/2017 I went to south east Asia and India to deepen my meditation and yoga practice. For the 2017/2018 winter, I'm heading west to spend time in south and north America.

I don't have a permanent home (so therefore I'm currently unable to host anyone). I don't own a car. I don't own much of anything, really. Sometimes it's tough, but it enables me to live a low budget life and travel wherever I want, whenever I want. I value freedom over safety, and try to step out of my comfort zone as often as possible. My aim is a life more true to myself and less guided by social norms.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I'm travelling solo it enables me to meet new, local people wherever I am. Perhaps even kick off a long lasting friendship or two.

Interests

My current interests have mostly to do with the lifestyle I'm pursuing. Living freely, without too many attachments or distractions, and being in a constant and conscious personal growth.

• yoga
• running
• meditation
• politics
• reading

Music, Movies, and Books

Three books that have impacted me in the last few years:

Radical Acceptance, by Tara Brach
Walden, by David Henry Thoreau
On Liberty, by John Stuart Mill

Oh and also, I love George Orwell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For three weeks I lived in a secluded buddhist monastery in the country side of Myanmar.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm slowly learning Spanish in preparation for south America and would love to practice with native speakers.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I might be able to help with random web development questions, perhaps if you run a blog or an online business or something? I could also share some of my yoga knowledge. I've practiced for years and did a one month long yoga teacher training course in India last winter. And surely I can help with any random tasks that you are doing while I'm visiting.
