Hello! My name is Tamara and I live in Stockholm, Sweden. By profession I'm an architect, as well as an authorized/sworn translator from English to Swedish. My friends describe me as someone who is kind, thoughtful and has a lot of humor. Please note, just because I have lots of it, this does NOT mean it's necessarily a good sense of humor ;P I'll joke about anything and everything, in a respectful way of course!
Interested in Art
Interested in Baking
Fluent in English
Learning German
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
At first I was quite skeptical... But then a friend told me she had been on so many trips with couchsurfing, and never had a bad experience. So I decided to give it a try! What better way to explore a new city or country, than with a local? :)
Music, Movies, and Books
I love Balkan rock bands from the 70s-80s, New Wave, progressive rock, jazz, instrumental etc. I also like Éric Rohmer, Bela Tarr, Emir Kusturica For literature I enjoy novels about love, and vivid depictions of cities I've visited. Can recommend Maken by Gun-Britt Sundström – it was translated into English recently.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I had a bad phobia of needles, but then one day I decided to become a blood donor. The craziest but still one of the best things I've done. I thought that I was going to die, but the nurses were so sweet and I had such a happiness rush that I'm about to do it for the 11th time :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I know quite a lot of languages (at least the basics)
What I Can Share With Hosts
I'm quite good at cooking vegetarian food, fish and seafood. I can tell you some funny phrases in 10+ languages
