ABOUT ME
I'M TRAVELLING AT THE MOMENT :) and can therefore not host anyone at this present time!
I'm originally from Stockholm, Sweden, but live in Berlin since about 6 years.
I'm living with my girlfriend Maria in a tiny cozy flat, and happily working with my passion - Training dogs! Or more - their humans ;) I'm trying to help people and their dogs to form a great bond and understanding for oneanother, to work as a Team and most of all - have fun together!
I'm only using training methods based on positive reinforcement and the newest research. This means i'm teaching the dog what I want him to do, not punishing what he might be doing "wrong" :)
I'm positive, adventurous, open-minded and easygoing. I love to travel and meet new friends from all parts of the world, see awesome places and experience different cultures. I enjoy movie marathons, flea markets, details, patterns, seaweed, hidden places, long conversations about life and space and all in between, hanging with animals, gazing at the stars, photographing, hanging out with awesome, caring people, paint and other artsy stuff, climbing, hiking, scuba diving, going on adventures.
Some other favorite things (..oh yes...there's heaps) are space, whales, festivals, goats and to travel by train. I'm engaged in animal liberation and environmental organisations and have been living as a vegan for about 14 years. I have two dogs, Mira and Ruth, who I love more than anything. They're my bestest lil' pals.
