About Me

CURRENT MISSION

At the moment I'm working at a day activity center with people with physical and mental disabilities, which is fulfilling and fun!

ABOUT ME

I'm positive, friendly, open-minded and loves to travel (..and specially dreaming a lot about those possible future travels..) and to get new experiences through travelling and in my daily life at home as well. The longer I live in Gothenburg the more I put down my roots here in this awesome city! :)
I'm always looking for experiences to help me grow as a person and continue with my self-development.
Healthy food and living is something that also interests me, like rawfood, vegetarian, vegan food and so on..
Sociology is my major for my bachelor, but I have also studied socialanthropology, human ecology, global development studies and socialpsychology which contains issues and questions about society, human rights and the human mind that interests me.

PHILOSOPHY
I want to try to live in the moment as much as I can. Not to worry for the future or dwelling about the past.. hard not to do that of course, but that is one of my endeavors.
I also think that everyting happens for a reason more or less. If I try to always be present and satisfied in the moment I will see the good things in everything that comes my way, and create a positive spiral. Even if i'ts something bad that happens I will always learn something from it in the end..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Give and Receive!
I have hosted others two times here in sw, but mostly I've been hosted but in the future when I have better room to host others I can participate that way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´ve been shown so much hospitality and kindness by the people I´ve been couchsurfing with. I couchsurfed through this site at four places in New Zealand, and two in Australia. It´s defenitively something I will continue to do during my travels.
And I´m looking forward to show people around in my city and be able to give them a nice place to stay!

Interests

Travel, Music, Paint, Writing poems or reflections from life, Yoga, Dance (at the moment I´m very into the free conscious kind of dance similar to 5rhythms) Meditation (mostly vipassana and mindfulness practice) socializing and just chill out in my own space! :)
