Hi there! My name is Louise, I'm 23 and from Stockholm. I currently work as a game attendant at the amusement park Gröna Lund.

--About my home--
I live in a one room apartment (separate kitchen/living room).

You may use my kitchen to cook food for yourself. I like cooking a lot and would love to do it together! Note that I am a vegan, therefor no cooking of meat is allowed. OK if you bring ready to eat food, I won't interfere with that.

--About my area--
I just love the place where I live. It's located 20 minutes by train from the central station, a suburb in the south of Stockholm. There are just so many things to do here! 3 minute walk to the biggest skatepark in Stockholm. There is a culture house located right next to it that host a lot of events like music gigs and art workshops etc. The centrum of my suburb has everything you need: food, clothing and Systembolaget. Close by is also on of the largest outside exhibitions of graffiti. In the area during spring and summer there are usually some underground/rave/open air parties.

--Things to do--
I can bring you to or just give you tips on the best must see places of my city. I'm a professional at beautiful parks, places and lookout points, music gigs, clubs, delicious vegan restaurants, shopping, art exhibitions and cultural events and experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First of all, to meet all kinds of cool people and having a much more fulfilling travel experience making new friends. Also I love exploring cities in a non-tourist way, so if anything I think couchsurfing would be a great way to start. I hope to be introduced to more underground/alternative parts of a city's culture.

Of course I want to share the same to anyone I host.
