About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find peace in my heart and in my mind

ABOUT ME

I am a curious and hopeful person who's in constant search for inspiration to make creativity flow. I read, I write, I think. Music, books, movies and art in general are important elements in my life and Im at my happiest when Im inspired (or when Im playing with dogs!). Im a dreamer and a seeker but usually a very practical one and I generally fit into reality even though I sometimes can't stand it. I love early mornings (especially during summer in Sweden) when Im alone with the world. Other favourite things to do is dancing all night, hanging out with friends, discussing, philosophying and laughing.

I believe FREEDOM is a keyword to how I want to live life, and I try to think outside the box as much as I can to get more perspective on everything. There's never a simple truth though, and it sometimes annoys me..

I love to meet new people, cultures, ways of living and try to learn from them. I guess life is about enjoying it, and that's also something I actively try to focus on!

PHILOSOPHY

Freedom, ecology, communication, love, peace are some of the concepts we need to focus more on in trying to make the world a better place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By believing in people and that everything is possible. I love long discussions about movies, literature and anything that inspires us.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been here for a while and every experience so far has exceeded my expectations, I really enjoy letting people stay at my place and learn more about them, the world, exchanging ideas.. And traveling the world by staying with a local is, in my opinion, the absolute best way of learning about a new place.
