I'm a 20 year old guy from western Stockholm, though I feel more like a 30 year old. I love hanging out with older people and have always done so - I feel like I actually get something from spending time with elders, tips and stories and just mistakes to learn about. I'm not a party guy, I don't drink and I /love/ everything about nature. I've had a pretty rough childhood, single mom (dad died from heroin overdose) and a brother who abuses drugs since young age. Yesterday I was thrown out, and I'm currently staying at a hotel in Stockholm.

My dream is to travel the world. I wanna experience other cultures and lifestyles - I don't feel like Sweden fits me, I love the Mediterrean life, I've been exposed to various cultures since birth due to the area I lived in. (Very immigrant heavy). I've also got an interest in building PCs, technology and science (especially space - who aint?!).

Other than that I'm a pretty quiet guy, unless we've got similar interests then I can go on forever haha :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Like I stated above, I'm here because it is not the first time in my life I've been kicked out of home - however this is definitely the last. I've been sleeping outside, at floors and basically anywhere I won't freeze to death. I'm on here because I wanna discover and experience life to its fullest - which by my standards mean discovering the WORLD. It's like playing the best game ever, and not exploring the world map - of course you gotta do that!

I'd work with ANYTHING, especially if it's something I haven't done before. I'm on here to hopefully meet someone who'd be able to take me in for a while, a few days or even weeks if possible. I wanna live in the Medditerean, I wanna work and widen my contact field. Since I've got no family, no friends - this is my only hope as of now.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love 90's hiphop, it's what I grew up with. Recently I've taken a liking to modern rap as well, especially TRAP. As for reading, my eyesight is terrible and it's always been an excuse not to read, however I really really wanna read Sun Tzu's Art of War. LITERATURE is something I wanna learn more about, and I seriously hope I can enjoy reading since it seems like such a great way of expanding your personal thoughts, views and overall knowledge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I visited Spain the summer of 2016 with a friend of mine - I hadn't left Stockholm since I was 10 by then. It was the best week in my entire life, the moment I stepped off the plane.. Suddenly I weighed kilos lighter - I told this to my friend who didn't really understand (A very nice childhood compared to mine). It wasn't until later that day, I realised.. My anxiety, my depression, my stress - it's all gone. I looked myself in the mirror and it was a different person. I WAS SMILING WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT IT - MY EYES WERE WIDE - I WAS HAPPY FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE YEEEARS. I slept on the floor @ My friends friend she knew since last time she was there.

The food, the people, the weather - the lifestyle is just exactly what I want from life. I couldn't stop crying tears of joy because I've always been told I'm a useless lazy bum and whatever.. Not to blame anxiety and depression etc. But damn.. In Spain - I was myself, THIS is how a normal person is supposed to feel. I seriously felt like I was high. High on happiness.

Teach, Learn, Share

There's nothing more important in live than sharing, learning and teaching with people that share your views. The appreciation, the smile that the person gives when you hand them over something they really need, when you listen and advice their personal problems - or just giving someone a hug every now and then.

Laying on my deathbed, I wanna be able to think that 'Man, if I could live again I wouldn't change a thing'. My dreams are not to be the CEO of a successful stocking company - my dream is to have a cozy little apartment in the cheap part of town (I'm so used to poverty by now) - I feel like people are closer in those communities.

Hell.. I'd even prefer sleeping on the beach during summertime!

What I Can Share with Hosts

What I can share with you are endless of stories, my love and passion for LIFE. I like cooking food so I'd handle that part as well :D Someone to talk with, about anything. I'm used to listening to peoples problems, always been the type of guy to wanna help everyone (Which is a legit problem.. I don't spend any time on helping myself.)

Countries I’ve Visited

Greece, Spain, Turkey
