About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Barcelona vacation 14/6 - 22/6 2019

ABOUT ME

Born in the capital of Sweden, Stockholm, but have lived most part of my life in a city in the north called Umeå. After I finished music school some 3 years ago I worked half time as a musician and half time on an insurance company. Yes, it was an unorthodox combination... I switched fields one year ago to computer science, which I will be studying for another two years. Programming is a new found passion!

A pretty easy going fella that likes to divide the time between hanging out with friends and getting some work done, whatever that could be at the time. Don´t like to plan ahead too much when it´s not necessary. I'm also a vegetarian which has proven to be easier back home in Sweden than some other places i've visited, but it has always worked out somehow.

PHILOSOPHY

There´s something to learn from everything

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My first couchsurfing experience was summer 2010 when I traveled the States for a couple of months and couchsurfed some places. I truly had an awesome time and met a lot of cool people. I will be doing some more traveling in the near future, hopefully meeting up with more interesting people on my way and represent Sweden on couches all over the world!
