Hi! :)
I would describe myself as kind, creative, independent and mostly happy. I like candy, funny penguins and design.
I live with my boyfriend in a small city in the north of Sweden in Jämtland. I'm from Stockholm but I moved to Östersund to study psychology. It's very beautiful and calm here, especially nice in wintertime when you can go ice skating on the lake!

If you'd like to stay at my place, please contact me a week or two in advance. At least not like the same day that you are arriving. I know that might be tricky for the ones that are hitch hiking, but I most likely can't host you if it's very short notice. My workhours aren't that flexible, and I actually have other things goin on beside hosting people ;) Even if I can't host you this time, I might still be able to share some Östersund tips and maybe meet up for a coffee!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm couchsurfing I get to meet a lot of new people and really experience their new culture.

Interests

My greatest interest is travelling, if I could I would travel all the time! I usually prefer going to warmer countries since it's quite cold in Sweden, even though I like skiing and snowballfights as well! When I travel I like to meet new people, taste new foods (I love food! Dumplings, sashimi, pancakes...), scubadive, try new things like riverrafting and bungy jumping, shopping (!), eat some more food and take a nap on the beach.

Apart from the traveling interest I like to spend time with my boyfriend Erik and friends, cooking, shopping, interior design and try new things.

Erik likes playing fotball, cooking new food, play golf, scuba dive, watching movies, hang out with friends.
