CURRENT MISSION

Surviving my first journey that requires some serious preparation.

ABOUT ME

Hi I'm Olle. I signed up a long time ago, forgot about the website and only did some couchsurfing without the website in the mean time.
Now that I'm planning my trip through northwest Africa this summer, I decided it was time to dust off this profile and use it more actively.

PHILOSOPHY

'' Ayer -- small, frail, slight as a sparrow and then 77 years old -- was entertaining a group of models at a New York party when a girl ran in screaming that her friend was being assaulted in a bedroom. The parties involved turned out to be Tyson and Naomi Campbell. ''Do you know who . . . I am?'' Tyson asked in disbelief when Ayer urged him to desist: ''I'm the heavyweight champion of the world.'' ''And I am the former Wykeham professor of logic,'' Ayer answered politely. ''We are both pre-eminent in our field. I suggest that we talk about this like rational men.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I signed up a few years ago I have not used couchsurfing actively yet. I hope I can change this this summer as I hope to meet some people during my travels and by offering my spare mattress after I return.

Interests

I think I should cycle more, read more, do more photography and try better at making good food.
