Hello!
My name is Erik, I´m 20 years old and I´m from a small town in Sweden called Härnösand. I´m a social guy who loves to explore new places, cultures and people.

I work as an english teacher for ground school students with special needs and I also work as a substitute teacher as often as possible.

I´m a non-smoker, love animals and I will happily eat your home cooked meals (I´m kidding... a little).

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I want to couchsurf because I think that it´s the perfect way to meet local and new people, learn more about the country, see a more local side of a city I visit and it´s also very healthy for my wallet!

Interessen

My interest vary from season to season. In spring, summer and automn I love being outside and do stuff like hike, camp, practice an uban sport called parkour, skate and longboard and just hang out with my friends. I´m a very active guy with lots of energy.
When it´s winter I prefere to stay inside (winter where I´m from can get really cold!) but when it´s not too cold I like to go skiing and ice skating on the many inland lakes in Sweden or even, if it´s cold enough on the baltic sea!
I have played the guitar for about 7 years and I´m an educated classical guitarist.
When I feel like just relaxing i like to watch a movie, read a book or listen to good music.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I have a very mixed taste in music (how original of me) but I prefere to listen to rock, prog- rock, punk- rock and metal but I appriciate all good music.
Naming my favorite books and movies is like naming a favorite child, I can´t just pick one! However, I love watching the "Lord of the rings"- triology, Inception, Donnie Darko, The good, the bad and the ugly, and the list goes on and on.
My favorite books are from a Swedish author called Lars Keppler who makes criminal/ horror books and I love to read anything from J.R.R Tolkien!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

It's hard to pick one but surfing vacation with friends in Marocko was one of the best times I´ve had!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can try to teach you some english or swedish and I've been told I'm a decent guitar teacher.
I´m always interested in leaerning new things really. Everything from food to I.T.
If you visit me in Sweden I will show you around and hopefully get you to see the real nature of Swedish hospitality!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can share my good company, stories, laughs, good food, (hopefully not) bad food. I would say I´m pretty easy to deal with. I won´t judge you if you don´t judge me, I will go get a pack of milk if you need me to and I will keep to myself if you want to.
