About Me

I would happily invite you to stay with me in Sweden and in my home in Stockholm or in the countryside if you like to visit Sweden ever.

I'm married and we have two wonderful children. We live in an apartment in Karlstad and in Stockholm, It is me, my wife Berit and our children Clara, 20 yrs and Noa 18 yrs.

PHILOSOPHY

My grandfather was an interesting man. He lived his whole life in a village in Lappland in the northern part of Sweden. When he died at the age of 94 he was still interested in learning more every day. I don't want to become a copy of someone else, except perhaps my grandfather.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would happily invite you to stay with me in Sweden and in my home in Stockholm or in Karlstad or in the countryside if you like to visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been travelling to London and Lubeck in Germany and we've had one German guest staying at our place in Stockholm. Our children were off from school and they took our guest on their first guided-tour in English alone! Great experience for them.

Interests

People, music, singing, sailing, bycycling, walking, technology, business, entrepreneurship, religion and politics.

I'm part of the Burning Man community in Stockholm if you are familiar with that community.

I will be volunteering at the World Championships Downhill in Åre in February 2019. I like the people that I meet and it is fun to take part of big events. Especially from the inside.

Lots of different books. Music, mostly soft, that makes me calm and in a good mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
