About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoy my new(old) hometown

ABOUT ME

Im a rather bad case of dyslexia and for the moment I have no axess to any spelling corection, so exuse us in forehand.....
The best way to tell someone who you are Is trough tell them your story, but on the other hand you would have nothing to ask when, if, we meet.
All that I can say Is that I, Hampus, am commonly seen as a somewhat odd birt In the garden of personalities surrounding and having surrounded me. Im full of love for the grand things, the good things and all of that in amounts that gives oneself a headake, stumbling feet and a worrying heart. But no fear, as pretentious as that I have said, I am likewise an easygoing type of guy who tell stories of greatnes, beauty and fat bellied men for a living and pride myself of my modest gathering of close friends and our dinners late in the nights.
So if Its me knocking on your door, Id give you all of contradictions known to me, to make our crossing of paths a memorable such.
If you are the one prospecting for my comfy couch to be(still on the lookout for a suitable one for my new appartment), you´d be wellcomed to a weird void of ´norse saga´ meets ´pretentious nerd´ meets ´good time´.
You be warned, you be wellcomed

PHILOSOPHY

It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities... was my devise por preferancé though nowadays Im far to disillusioned to make such dubious anouncements ´bout the meaning of things...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to show around and host visitors of My home region and be an open an rewarding person towards those i meet and, now when I finaly got the oppurtunity, host some of you people out there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my expericences of nights spent on strangers floors and couches on my way throug life has always been that it is the best way to meet intresting new people and so myck more preffered to sleep on a hostel or on the street of some obscyre side of what evver town(the later is exiting ´thoug over )

Interests

Fine arts(making, particepating in and looking at), reading useless books(ex. history of merkantile scania) and semi usefull ones(exdie blechtrommel), photographing, travel(by thump, foot or boat).... and all that make existence worth while that haven´t yet been mentioned...... cooking obscure cookies for instance

Music, Movies, and Books

Absolute favorit; the children's picture book "where the wild things are"... otherwise what evver book to cross my path on my weekly romps through the libaries and secondhand bookshops i end up in more than one should, considering my lack of space in my bookshelf....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crawled, hiked, hitched, jumped, swam, trainjumped etc from Stockholm to mt Sinai(egypt) and back again, with little, sometimes no funds, a sea of troubles and doubts and eons of help from strangers, I can tell you sometime

Teach, Learn, Share

I work as a Museum teacher at the royal palaces in stockholm, I like to cook, paint(on papers and walls), draw and write [mediocre poetry].... all of this I can share, show and criticize for your high amusement.
