Current mission:

Finish my masters thesis in Architecture, which means Istanbuling for at least a month starting February. The last six months I’ve been cycling from Sakhalin to Hanoi.

I’m a person that get emotionally involved in things easily and simply love to do a lot! Food is one of life’s big pleasures and I enjoy sampling new dishes where ever I go.

Another thing I really love is travelling (a bit unexpected for a couch surfer? :)),people, languages and cultures give me thrills. This community is a brilliant way to experience and to nurture all of these interests! Yeah!

I've realized and value the benefits of getting to know a place consistently and thoroughly. I think experiencing new places is more fruitful when you have a place to really call home. Therefore I constantly try to explore new places by staying a bit longer and reexplore my hometown Gothenburg. Life so far has brought me to Nyc, London Madrid and Cdmx.

You should all feel welcome here and to my house, who ever you are.. and whenever I'm home :). In emergency cases I can extend my house to friends places all over town. You should never not feel welcome in Gothenburg. I hope to get to meet many of you, by hosting or surfing.

Or why not somewhere else on this beautilful home to us all, earthlings. hehe :)

Philosophy:

Smile and the world smiles back on you. Never be afraid to ask. And attempting at: why wait with doing things you can do now. I think I’d get along with people that can bother to read this far.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm myself. Surfing, hosting, travelling, proud, open-minded, friendly, a bit absent minded. I hope you are too. I love the experience of getting to know people from all over. To me it is very important to be respectful towards differences, culturally, sexually and based on gender. Those are qualities I often find with Couchsurfers.

I've surfed with a friend in Niteroi Brazil and did a lot of couch surfing when I inter-railed throughout Europe from London to Istanbul in spring 2010 - best way to get to know a city.

I've had plenty of people coming to stay with me in Sweden and also hade visitor on my couch when I lived in London. Only had good experienses so far!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Graaaduated architecture school, just happened this month (june 2014) :)

When I saw the sun-rise in Kenyakumali in Tamil-Nadu India, the pure cheer and applause of the on-watchers were so sincere that it felt like the sun found energy to rise once more just because of it.

I had problems with my Ichias which left me bed-ridden for two weeks, when the tension and pain finally left I cried and laughed for a looong time. That release was so intense.

Ok that was three but still.

ATM not in Gothenburg, but when I’m back I will update my profile.
