About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn Spanish!

ABOUT ME

Being born and raised in a small countryside village I have to say that I love the country life. I love being able to walk straight out of your house on to the grass and to sit there with a cup of coffee! I love to take long walks along the quiet roads and enjoy nature. I love the smell of flowers and hey and cows!
But I also like city-life, having lived for a long time in Malmö, Sweden. I love sitting in a cafe with a cappucino (yes i do like my coffee) watching people in the street. I love going to bars and hang out with my friends. I simply enjoy both worlds a lot!
And the same goes for my travelling. I enjoyed New York City as much as I enjoyed sleeping on the remote beach in Colombia with no electricity.
I dont really know how to describe myself...? I am easygoing I think and quite relaxed. I like meeting new people and have long discussions about politics, love or whatever else interesting. I like eating good food but I rather someone else cooks, I can do the dishes! I like drinking wine and beer in pubs, but I am not really much for going clubbing. I eat organic and vegetarian food if possible.
I am not afraid to go by myself to new places and to try new things, but sometimes I am just lazy and stay in bed with my laptop, reading blogs or updating my facebook profile = )

PHILOSOPHY

I am trying to learn how to live more in the present and worry less about the future. It's hard sometimes but I hope I will get there.

Reading is something that I really love, but it's hard to list all the books that I have liked...oh that does sound boring but it's true.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking the Amazon in Ecuador. Truly amazing.
