About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making new friends :)
ABOUT ME
I'm a thinker and a writer. :) I live in Stockholm by myself in a small flat, but originally I come from the west coast of Sweden.
I've lived in Russia (Nizhny Novgorod) and speak Russian quite well, all though I always need more practice. Languages and meeting people from all over the world has been one of my life long interests.
I know I might seem a bit reserved at a first encounter, but I generally like socializing so please don't be scared off. :)
PHILOSOPHY
Try to live in the moment and follow my guts :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been sufing in Russia - Kazan, Moscow, Ekaterinburg and also last summer in UK and Scotland. In Nizhny Novgorod couchsurfing was a great way to get to know people, without cs I don't really know what I would have done... I made such good friends through cs, now I'm hooked for life!:)
I've been hosting a bit as well. I do it when I feel like it. Right now my work schedule is crazy with lots of late shifts, so I'm not really at home that much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The first demonstrations for free elections i NN was magical, like an open air winter's party.
Travelling alone in Georgia and Ukraine 2006.
Going for hours and hours in Russian trains, seeing nothing but forests is boring... and so impressive!
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Swedish, anyone? Or what about vegetarian cooking? InDesign? (Although I don't have it on my computer).
