About Me

*** Currently travelling myself, hence not accepting guests!***

I'm a 26-year-old student from Sweden who loves travelling and meeting new people. I am completely new to Couchsurfing but I have heard great things about this community! I have lived in four different countries and travelled whenever I could, soaking up stories and sharing experiences. I will soon finish my master's degree in "International Conflict Studies". I love music, my friends and my family.

I'm a people person and I think everybody has something unique to share! I am passionate about equal opportunity and social justice and build my working life around this. When I travel I try not to plan too much so I can be flexible.

At the moment I have a five week trip to Iran ahead of me and I can't wait to build some good relationships, explore the beauty and nature and am very open to being shown what the people I meet think is great about their culture. With a tiny bit of Farsi to get me by I hope to learn more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life is best experienced through conversation - and that's what I want to do with people on Couchsurfing! As a host, I will show you my favourite spots and activities of the area that I live in. As a "surfer" I will be open to the host's expertise on his/her hometown and gladly participate in the daily activities of his/her life. Generally, I just want to meet nice people.

For the moment I'm looking for places to crash in Iran. However, once I go back to Sweden, I really would like to a get a new flat and host some couchsurfers!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movies are "Cool Hand Luke", "Apocolypse Now" and "Raging Bull". I read everything I come across. Also, I am crazy about music - I mostly listen to soul, RnB, hip-hop, funk, afrobeat and dancehall.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I'm willing to share any knowledge I possess. Just ask for it.

Learn: As a proper "foodie" I would love to learn new recipes. Also, I've become fairly good with my analogue camera. But if you know photography, I would gladly accept some classes!

Share: Friendship, stories, experience, travel passion and food!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm easy to get along with and love sharing stories of travel and life at home. I believe that keeping up with friends made abroad is important, and kindness should be reciprocated if that person ever visits my hometown.

Countries I’ve Visited
