I have just now found out about the paywall to use the site. It took me a year since I got a grace period of twelve months apparently, but zero information about it. This explains a lot about the very low activity on the site in that year though.

I will unfortunately no longer be actively hosting on here. If you want to reach me you can probably find me through other channels. I will keep the profile active but I will not be able to log in and reply to your messages. If you want to reach out to me do so through other social media.

A lot of the information below might be out of date.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hosting whenever I can. Otherwise a free guide with plenty of knowledge. Also help manage a couple of groups.

For more info about Stockholm see:

• Wikipedia
• City Visitor Information
• SL.se - Public Transport (prices and routes)
• Sweden.se great site about Sweden in general.

A single journey in the city is 37:- whether you pay by cash, card or use a top-up card. However you can only use the ACCESS (top-up card) on busses so I suggest getting that.

I know a lot about the cities I've lived in and like to share my knowledge and give personalizsd tips (but please be a bit specific with your requests).

I have also recruited four members to the site so far.
Since I travel by bike I am also on WarmShowers.org

I've hosted 61 people from 29 different countries

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
