About Me

Recently studied at Hyper Island, so I like to explore the digital business realm - how we can kanban our parts of life, have fun with Figma and explore new tools emerging with AI.

I still live to stay in motion, kayaking, cross country skiing and bicycling around town. But when I do stop, I have no trouble looking after myself and friends, enjoying a few episodes on Netflix, eating good and right. I search for flow, and other than in motion, I do so in reading and writing about things Im interested/believe in. So I don't mind talking politics, domestic as well as international.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, and having worked in the restaurant business for many years I enjoy meeting new people.
I don't have the possibility to go on a long trip at the moment. But while I'm here I'd love to take the moment and share my perspective on Sthlm, and getting to know people of the world in the process.

Interests

The outdoors, loving winter and summer and the diversity of activities they make possible. I'm curious, and love local stories and history - patterns that provide a way to interpret current and future events.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping on a wind still night, out on a mountaintop ridge in Lofoten, Norway. Experiencing the greenest northern lights I have ever seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

Vegan/vegetarian cooking, camping skills, kayaking, dragonboat and outrigger paddling techniques. Learning Lovable (AI full stack dev), but it’s new to me - I hope to improve while the service also gets more user friendly.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, conversation and perspective. I don't mind helping out where I can make a difference
