About Me

I'm a very introverted person, and I don't usually like to hang out in big crowds. I'm usually pretty calm and reserved when meeting new people. I prefer sightseeing, like museums, palaces and such, and outdoors activities and the like over clubbing and shopping, though local markets are pretty fun to go to.

I try to try new kinds of food when I travel, but I've never been the type to eat a lot at once, but rather eat a bit more often - which I guess would be perfect when trying local streetfood :)

NOTE
I've changed my name since I went to Korea in 2016 - it's Colin now, not Nathan (my referenses say Nathan)

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly like fantasy books, like The Harry Potter series.
Action, Horror and Historical Dramas are favourites for movies, but comedy works too. Fantasy and alternative future for series usually. Some favourite movies and series are;
- Terminator, both movie series and TV-series
- The Bourne Identity
- Harry Potter
- Avatar
- The Lake House (both original and remake, though I prefer the original Korean one)
- Pirates of the Carribean
- Naruto and Naruto Shippuuden
- Spirited Away
- Sanningen om Rödluvan (Hoodwinked) - I f'cken love the yodeling goat omg

My music taste can be varied at times - I'm often in 'phases', going from one band to another rather than style.
Currently I'm listening to a lot of Bangtan Boys and Zico. Used to listen to Tokio Hotel a lot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent two weeks in Seoul in 2016, was super nervous since it was my first solo travel. But I had a really good time, and met a lot of nice people!

I'd like to learn some useful phrases of the local language, and I can teach some basic Swedish too.
