About Me

I'm living in a flat in Biskopsgården in Gothenburg. It's a giften minute tram trip from the city center and the trams go often. I'm working with kids who has fled other countries without their families to Sweden. I have a couch and a matress for you guys to use. I love my flat and can't believe I get to stay in it alone. I've always lived with many others and always loved it, but now I got my own place and would like to share my blessings :)

ABOUT ME

I love travelling (how original=P ) and meeting new people. I never wanna walk the same road twice if there is a new more exiting turn to take (even if it makes me late, or lost, in the process)

I used to work to be able to go on a few trips over longer time. But now I got my appartment and job and it makes me a bit more stuck in Sweden. In a good way, though. I love this country :) But I also love to have much time to travel and be able to spontaniously stay in one place longer if it pleases me.. I hope I'm gonna be able to do that more times in my life.

PHILOSOPHY

To do all the things I would regret not doing

I like to try to understand others rather than judging them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host people, because it brings a little whift of travelling in to my life right now when I have to stay at one place. And because you can meet awesome people doing it =)

I think it's often the best way to travel to live with someone who can show you around, so i love surfing to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been on Couchsurfing for a while now. But I've been renting rooms in someone elses appartment, so it hasn't always been working out. Now is the time though!

I like a lot to stay with people while traveling, it's really the best way to see places, especially while traveling alone.

Interests

Music, friends, travelling. I like go get out in a forrest every once in a while and I like learning other languages. I like to cook and eat food, and I like to be a bit creative sometimes.

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music I used to say I like almost everything until my brother once protested and told me it wasn't true. So I'm gonna have to analyse my musictaste a bit more. I like "world music" whatever that means. I enjoy African rythms, chill-out surfer dudes (like Xavier Rudd and John Butler), reggae in all it's forms, hip hop, and let me own up to this: I like pop.
