CURRENT MISSION

To upgrade our global democratic operating system into something that belongs in the current century, to play with as many musicians as I can and to spread partner acrobatics across the globe for the betterment of humankind.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Canada, the first son of an English mother and a Swedish father, moved to Europe at a tender age and have resided here, barring travel, since. I have held down an array of occupations and haven't been fired from one yet. A few years ago I quit my job as a technical journalist/editor (gadgets kind of bore me in the long run), sold my apartment and set off to explore the world and my place in it. Which I have been doing since.
Am hoping to provide an awesome couch from May 2018, but until then I'm more of a surfer than a provider of couches. Unless you would like to spend a night or two in one of my tree houses, that is.

PHILOSOPHY

Cynics are merely romantics that couldn't handle the pressure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm more than happy to help out with pretty much anything (especially building a tree house if you have a suitable tree) as well as provide my hosts with acrobatics workshops and concerts, if you are into my music.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Limited but positive. As most things, on the grander scale.

Interests

People, music, art, society, democracy and a better future for all.

• arts
• concerts

• music
• journalism

Music, Movies, and Books

Into quirky, singer songwriter music (which I try to write myself)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being hugged by an elephant was pretty amazing. Though technically, it would be something the elephant done.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach pretty much anyone with a head to do a head stand, and bunch of other acrobatic tricks that are fun to do with other people. Currently I have a "frozen shoulder" which limits my own scope, but always happy to offer coaching!

I've been building a lot of tree houses lately (in Sweden and South Africa so far). If you have a tree that might like a house in it, in vicinity to the couch, I'm your guy!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Canada, Denmark, England, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Netherlands, South Africa, Sweden, Thailand
