Hey there!

My name is Desirée and I’m living 20 minutes (by car) from Luleå. I have a pretty comfy couch to share with travellers that fit two people, otherwise there are plenty of floors! ;)

I’m an easy going person who likes nature and the things you can do there, such as rock climbing, hiking, ski touring, snowboarding, skinny dipping, make coffee on fire or just exist. I also like movies, music, analog photography, board games/video games, poetry, beers/wine, travel and cooking food from around the world.

I’m a single mom to a 11 year old daughter also and there is a 99% chance she’s home while you choose to stay here, but she’s very social and fluent in English. Bringing kids is no problem too! We also have a cat at home; Pumpkin. 🐈

I speak fluently English and Swedish, some Chinese and are always trying to learn new languages, right now I’m working on Turkish and French.

Welcome!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Slept under the sky beside a dying fire, during midnight sun in June. So simple, but still a memory I cherish so much. ✨

Enseña, aprende, comparte

If we have time and want to hang out I can show some local spots in nature, go rock climbing or indoor climbing, or simply just cook together. We can make some language exchange, draw something or talk about whatever. :)
