About Me

ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

*** I have a lovely cat. Her name is Misch. If you want to stay with us, I would like you to include her name in your request. It works both as a cue to see that you're not horribly allergic and that you actually checked my profile (I know it might be difficult to find time to write proper requests sometimes, but it also gets quite tedious to answer to lots of generic messages). ***

CURRENT MISSION

Conquering the world without claiming it.

ABOUT ME

Reading about Pernilla will not give you a satisfactory image of who she is. She can not be described in words but must be experienced in person. Sometimes she will be charming, mischevious, warm and appealing. An odd, somewhat crazy girl that you either will love or just think is rude. At other times she will be shy and introvert. Then, she might need encouragement to crawl out of her shell.

PHILOSOPHY

Give me coffee to change the things I cannot accept, and wine to accept the things I cannot change.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I am mainly looking for people to hang with and interesting events.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started out using CS when travelling around the Americas in 2009. Both to find places to crash and to find people to meet up with. Since then I have met a whole bunch of great people for other reasons than surfing/hosting, who happen to be CS:ers as well.

When I lived in Malmö I hosted people on and off for a few years, but my current living arrangements do not allow me to host.

Over all my experiences have been absolutely amazing and some of the people I met I know will by my friends for life.

Interests

Travelling. Learning languages. Friends. Human rights. Social justice. Latin America. Exercising. Books.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Too many to mention!
Music: Virtually everything, depending on my mood.
Movies: I'm very bad with movies since I am usually too impatient to spend two hours watching a movie, but when I do take the time I enjoy them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting picked up by a retired couple in Okinawa who decided that since they had nothing else to do they might as well show me around the rest of the day.

Gone snorkling and scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef.

Watched the sunset in the Stockholm archipelago.

Took a swim in the Atitlan Lake.

Almost fallen of a cliff in Cotahuassi Canyon in Peru.

Guatemala: so many amazing people and so much learning.
