Overview
About Me
I love meeting new people, even if it's only for a coffee or a tour around the town.
Don't hesitate to contact me! I'm sure we'll have fun :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
For me it's not a free bed, it's excellent opportunity to learn the country through the locals' eyes. And as I travel usually alone CS gives me a great feeling that I already have friends in a new place :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Must-See's and Must-Do's in Stockholm:
1) Gamla Stan (Old Town), Stortorget, Royal Palace, Mårten Trotzigs Gränd (the narrowest street in the city), Riddarholmskyrkan with the view on the Södermalm (near Mälardrottingen Yacht)
2) Take a boat to Djurgården island, visit Vasa museum, Abba museum, Skansen, Gröna Lund or just walk around
3) Walk around the Kastellholmen and Skeppsholmen islands
4) Walk from Stockholm city hall along the Norr Mälarstrand to the bridge Västerbron, cross the bridge - it's huge and beautiful
5) Visit the best free viewpoints of the city - Monteliusvägen and Ivar Los Park (near Mariatorget/Slussen metro stations) and Katarinahissen (Galleria)
6) Visit the old street with the wooden houses in the heart of Stockholm - Mäster Mikaels gata. Enjoy the view of Djurgården.
