CURRENT MISSION

The become more knowledgeable

ABOUT ME

I am a talkative multilingual Swede..

I like discussing and am very curious as a person. I like to hang out and have a good time. I have a high level of wanderlust and have roamed some parts of the earth. I like to experience different environments and I have worked in a number of countries before. I am somewhat of a language buff. My favorite language is Russian, due to the elegance of its structures.

PHILOSOPHY

Why not?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I now have a house. So I can host sometimes.

While I really like technology, you should be aware that the new app means that I recieve between 3 and 20 request per day. So cut and paste, simply does not do the trick. I will not host someone just because they are in Bolivia. If you feel they have not time to write anything but to describe a need you have, please do not request my coach.

And thinking about what CS is about, no disrespect meant, it makes one feel like a hotelling service at times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a few guests. And I am looking forward to meeting more interesting people. So send me a line of you need a couch.

Interests

Politics, Music, Film, development and international affairs, Russian society and litterature. Among other things.

I am a movie buff and have an unhealthy interest in music. I have a great love for American (i.e USA in this context) popular culture.
