CURRENT MISSION

'Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.'--Gandhi

ABOUT ME

We are a Swedish-American couple in love with Stockholm but always willing to leave her to see new places and new faces. We like to wander and ponder, and to talk and laugh with friends old and new. We are much nerdier than we are handy, much more familiar with Stockholm's cafés than its clubs. We speak fewer languages than we would like and just can't dance.

PHILOSOPHY

Our existence is not pointless.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We do our best to be welcoming and helpful hosts. We enjoy attending and organizing CS events in Stockholm.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting couch surfers has been a unique and enjoyable experience each time. We have also had the opportunity to surf a few times. We love meeting fellow couch surfers at regular Friday gatherings and other CS activities.

兴趣

We like to take long walks in Stockholm and ride our bikes around the surrounding forests, lakes, and sea. We like to travel and eat, go out for live music, and hang out with friends.

Amy likes coffee, chocolate, smoothies, molecules, math, jogging, cookbooks, live music, and heights with views.

Jonathan is an avid Star War's Miniatures player, and enjoys other strategy games and video/computer games, nature experiences, biking, fishing, reading, newspapers and politics. He has a special interest for history related to his community.
