Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Make the most of my life and enjoy every day of it!
ABOUT ME
I might seem a bit quiet at first, but mostly it's easy to tell when I feel comfortable. :)
There are not many things I dislike, and I love trying and talking about new things, because I believe it's when you change your mind about something, that's when you are the most honest to yourself.
I consider myself very open-minded, and like to stir up conversations for the sake of challenging myself and other to consider different paths of thinking. So please don't hold it against me if I keep questioning something, it's hardly ever personal. :)
Totally flexible(almost too much), adventurous, positive, and always open to try and learn new things in life. :)
PHILOSOPHY
Make the most of the time you have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have met a lot of people and made friends by participating in events. I have surfed a little, and I look forward to being able to host whenever I have a place of my own to live. :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Still new to all of this, but I'm getting into it, and will hopefully soon be meeting a lot of new people.
Interests
First of all, any new experiences are of interest to me, besides that:
Sports: Handball and snowboarding mostly, but also skiing, hiking and other outdoorsy stuff. And I enjoy trying pretty much anything.

Meeting new people and hearing their story.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Love "must-sees" like Pulp Fiction, Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Fight club, Snatch and so on... apart from that I'm a total Jim Carrey-fan, love a good psychological thriller, and on the right occasions, with the right people, even a stupid romantic comedy might be funny^^
Music: I play the saxophone, a little piano, and enjoy listening to pretty much everything: Metal, Jazz, Classical, Oldies... You name it! But Rock and Metal are favorite's mostly :)
Some favourites:(will be updated more): Iron Maiden, Metallica, ELO, Wishbone Ash, SOAD, Amos Lee, Avenged Sevenfold, Led Zeppeling, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Royal Republic, Seether, Jean-Michel Jarre, Mike Oldfield, Beatles...
Reading: Right now I'm reading Terry Pratchett's Disc World Novels. Also enjoy a good detective story. :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hiked the Grand Canyon all the way to the Colorado river and back up in one day.
Rode a mountain cart down the tortuous roads of the mountains in Bad Gastein, Austria.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Weeeeeell, I DO know Swedish and Polish witch I'd have no problem helping people to learn. I hopefully have more skills I could teach, but I can't think of any right now. :)
Learn: I'd love to learn other languages, especially sign language! Also I'd like to learn surfing and more professional photography. :)
