Hi fellow couchsurfers! I'm Helén, a person who I hope people perceive as down-to-earth, friendly and gay (both in the "happy" and the homo-way). Right now, work-wise, i study social science and I have a special interest in women's rights, migration and criticizing the nationstate.

...I am -soon to be- a burner! Will i see you at the playa 2015?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is a great way to travel and to meet new people. I have stayed on a lot of couches, and I'm so thankful for the people who brought me into their homes and showed me around, but i haven't really been using this site all that much. This seem to be a great way to get in contact with others likeminded though, so i might change that now :)

If you're heading to Gothenburg, let me know! I might be able to host you, or else hang out or give advise!

Interests

I just got a new fishing rod, so thats kind of my favorite activity right now. I often combine it with a picknick and i never catch fish. I like being outdoors: going on a hike, geocashing or something else. I have a soft spot for nature documentaries, thrillers and romantic comedies. I enjoy dancing, -fika-, UE and pub-quizzes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
