About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Ah, the inevitable personal description...well I'm a 22 year old student from Sweden. I guess I would describe myself as quite outgoing, keen to learn new things and a sucker for adrenaline rushes.

I recently moved to beautiful Gothenburg and am currently studying medicine here. Since I'm busy a lot bc of school I can't always host but if I have the time you're welcome to stay on my couch. I'm also more than happy to show you around the city or grab a beer/fika:)

I love music, dancing, going to art shows and traveling and try to combine those as often as I can. Also enjoy meeting new people and sharing stories. I'm always up for late night drunken or sober chats about anything from funny travel anecdotes to Nietzsche to survival strategies for the upcoming zombie apocalypse

I thought I'd finish off with something witty but can't think of anything so just hum a few bars of Deee-lite's "Groove is in the heart"...there, hopefully that got you in a good mood. Cheers!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I enjoy listening to most kinds of music, anything from 80's disco to jazz to indie rock to electronic/techno. Sharing music playlists is the best! one band that I'm especially fond of is the Arctic monkeys

Addicted to tv series in general, but get bored quite easily. Some that have stuck with me are: game of thrones, orange is the new black, bob's burgers, flight of the conchords & parks and rec

Some books I like: anything by Palahniuk, Camus, 1984, half a yellow sun, crime & punishment, game of thrones, bossypants(Tina Fey), on the road, catch-22

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Turning down a med school offer and moving alone to Paris is definitely one of the most intimidating and amazing things I've done. Now I know to trust my gut and you know that cliché saying that everything works out in the end? well it's true. Even if not in the way you first imagined, most things do work out in the end.
