About Me

I'm a genderqueer 20-year old from Stockholm. Mostly I make art and work as an instructor at a climbing gym, or cooking dinner, drinking coffee and talking with
my friends.

Politics and social justice are important topics to me. I'm a feminist, and would never back on my values. I love, though, to learn from people of all opinions, and I hope to gain insight on a lot of perspectives during my current travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are so many different ways of travelling. One might stay in a hotel, see what pretty houses there is to be seen, and leave it at that. Meeting people and coming close to the actual community is a whole other thing - and that is want I want. To learn new things, widen my own perspective and before all else: To feel at home whilst travelling. That is the dream and that is why I'm on couchsurfing!

Interests

Politics, vegan/vegetarian cooking, queer-theory, art, climbing, medicin, environmental sustainability, drinking beer and coffee, vintage clothing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to do shopping and cooking for any host. I'll share my language, if youre interested in that, or my knowledge about politics in sweden and feminism, vegan/vegetarian recipes and everything I know about climbing. Besides that - feel free to borrow anything I have brought with me and if you ever visit Stockholm, I will share my home with you.

On my side, I'm happy to learn everything about your city/country/culture. Teach me your language, about your interests, about your experiences. I love to hear about other political perspectives than my own, and about experiences of being queer/lgbtq in other countries.
