About Me

Hey there everyone! Im a musician from stockholm who loves to work with wood, arrange events, hang out with the people i love and rehearse with my band!

Just started this profile after sharing one with Zola whom i travelled with before, so if you wanna see reviews of me/us go to her profile;

https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/zola-aminoff?action=show&controller=user_profiles

Tired of doing classic ”touristy things” and more into just seeing the daily life in a city, hanging with locals, taking walks and having interesting conversations with people!

My apartment is 27 sqm so not huge, but if you need somewhere to sleep hit me up!

Dont worry to much about proving yourself to me in your message, i just wanna help you out! Although of course, if i feel we click, its a bigger chance i say Yes. We absolutely dont have to hangout, but if you seem like a interesting person it would be fun to hang out a bit! I know alot about the (arguably pretty dead but still existing) music scene happening in Stockholm, underground events etc, so if you are looking for that kind of stuff i might be able to help

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its just way more nice to live with a local than at an hotel! I like meeting people, understanding cultures and really ge to know places from a local perspective, and couchsurfing helps with that! Finally got an apartment, so now im open to hosting as well!

Movies; The holy grail, the holy mountain, the big lebowski, brazil, purple rain (so bad its good), the shining, stalker… i like movies but want to see more! Im not nerdy enough i feel..

Books; Memories dreams reflections (carl jung), The left hand of darkness (ursula k) Thus spoke Zarathustra (nietszhe), Bhagavad ghita… have not read too much honestly, also something i would live to do more! But somehow i seem to mostly want to read pretentious difficult books, which makes it a bit harder…

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started a great band with my best friends
Went to burning man
Worked with special needs children

Teach, Learn, Share

I can speak some spanish, but would love to learn more!

Otherwise i know alot about the bands i love. There was a time when inwas convinced i had seen every type o negative related video on the internet, down to the level of even having seen a video from an old cell phone, with 50 views, of a guy frying an egg while listening to them. I was obsessed. But i will spare you from my rantings about them, if you do not wish otherwise, dont worry.

I can teach some stuff about music, sound engineering, woodworking, arranging festivals / events, knowledge about sweden and denmark, and probably alot of other stuff :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good conversation, some good music tips and a curious listener (me)! If you need help with anything specific, just ask!
