Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel the world, what else? It´s a longterm dream to go on a huge trip around the world.
ABOUT ME
Difficult to describe oneself, especially for swedes who are so reservated ;) I would like to see myself as not that reserveted, I have a strong integrity though (beeing half-french and all;) but also a self-distance wich means that I can easily laugh at myself. I would say that I am easy-going, responsive and rather giving. I`m a vegetarian since shildhood (though I do not mind hosting carnivores). I´m a feminist, the word being debated in Sweden, I believe in equal rights and salary in comparison to the labour put down, for all people. I would say that I am gender-aware (a direct translation from swedish, hope you all get what I mean) being what is defined as hetero, LGBT-questions are still close at heart!
I am also an atheist and I must admit that strong religious believes do scare me, but hey we are here to share and as you can see I myself have strong believes so we might not be so different after all!
PHILOSOPHY
Work hard for your dreams, be driven, but also try to see the small things that enchants life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I just moved to a new apartment and have to find two co-renters, but as soon as I have found them and they have agreed on having couch-surfers over I will be happy to lend you my...hold your breath...sofa-bed! I live in a three-room apartment, 15 minutes from the city center by subway, in a green area close to a small harbour where one can, take strolls along the shore, have barbecues on the cliffs and take a swim (though the season is almost over in this hemisphere ;)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted one couple!
Interests
I´m very interested in different cultures, wich is obviously why I became a member of this comunity. Other than that theatre is a great interest of mine, I´ve been acting a great deal myself through the years. My favorit type of time-killing-activity is watching programs on tv or reading storys about nature, animals and such, worldwide. It makes me travel from the couch ;). I am currently studying law and though it was a bit of a gamble I am becoming more and more interested about those structures that overrules the world, especially human rights and environmental law. I also have a singing background from school and I wish to start playing the accordion again, wich I played for ten years. Meeting new people, listening to others, is really enjoyable to me.

Music, Movies, and Books
I don´t read anything in particular apart from the literature at university, news, interesting storys on the internet... As for music, I have no special taste, I enjoy music from all over the world, preferably with touches of their own folkmusic, jazz...you name it.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I must say, without wanting to brag, that acting professionally in front of the camera has been a blessing in many ways. Along with the kicks I get beeing exposed to a stunning landscape, such as the views from the sugerloaf in Rio de Janeiro, nothing is more amazing!
Teach, Learn, Share
Clearly I can contribute to your french and sweedish knowledge. I would like to improve my english, learn spanish, foreign customs... Everything can be shared so let´s see what you have in stall for me!
