About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Master Super G and Downhill Skiing whilst helping disabled people get into competition adaptive action snow sports at the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a rookie athlete touring the world, its gets a bit funny seeing strange people all the time and not having a home. Its nice to be around community of people who are chilled open minded.

Interests

Interests include, travel, music, flying, walking, reading, keep fit, Economics, international development UN style....And of Course Super G, Downhill and Ski jumping and anything I can do to make the world move forward (not that it isn't already!)

Music, Movies, and Books

For books its The 4 hour work week, for movies it has to be Hotrod for its raw comedy, and Inception for its..Well, im not quite sure why, i just found it really enjoyable...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ski jumped with Eddie the eagle in courchevel for Ski 4 Cancer. That's pretty legendary!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of business knowledge, Economics and International Politics, hardly inspiring, I know, but could be useful to someone and am happy to share...

No dry square piece of paper can be folder more than 7 times, (I know I have tried) and when you put a seashell to your ear, the sound you hear is not waves, but the echo of the blood pulsing in your own ear...and Sweden is the worlds largest spender of ketchup...

The best way to handle pain is to be strong through eating well and training hard.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Tales, excersise warm ups, laughter, conversational politics and world affairs if you like or anything. Am lucky to have lived a life so have many experiences to share!

Countries I’ve Visited

Finland, France, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, Ukraine

Countries I’ve Lived In
