CURRENT MISSION

Survive without much money!

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy spirit, a caring person. Honest, stubborn, big laughter, very talkative and outgoing!

I'm easy to be around. My friends don't have to take care of me when I visit their homes. I cook for myself and spread my things like I'm home. with respect for new friends I don't.

I have strong values, don't drink alcohol that much or smoke.

I love dancing and having a good chat about anything between heaven and earth.

Music is life <3 Makes the daily life so much more intense.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy what you are!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got to know about couch surfing in Sweden from some friends who had a hippie collective. But it was in India I signed up on CS after meeting 2 guys who hosted Couch surfers in their Internet Café.

Seemed to be a great way of traveling.
So here I am!

Interests

I love making paintings and drawings, I often carry around my sketch book and pencils when I'm traveling. In Sweden I'm practicing Aikido and Muay Thaiboxing. I really enjoy to just relax with friends, talk or play games.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Three Unforgettable moments in life:

*When I was Volunteering in Tanzania and saw a Woman laying on the ground dying of HIV, I still have that experience, that picture in my mind when I think that my life sucks sometimes.

*The desert in Jaisalmer(Rajasthan), the sunset over the dunes was incredible beautiful with the camels standing close to each other, cuddling.

*The bridge that connect me to Holo the Island I live on in Sweden. It's winter time and I'm looking out on a frozen river with full moonlight and complete silence.

Teach, Learn, Share

Just entering a strangers home is learning you a lot about yourself and how other people are.

Adjusting and carefully tip toeing the first minutes in the beginning. Getting to know eachother and then big laughters, beautiful stories to share. A new relation is created!

You can share many things through CS, I would like to share anything that comes along. For example:

-I want to learn how to cook the food in the country I come to, or at least taste it in a familiar enviroment.

-Language is also fun to share, learn useful phrases to get around in the country.

-If you are interested in music or art that would be great fun to share. Play guitar and I will try to sing.

-Make a drawing together on a big sheet of paper.

A tradition for me is often to leave some sort of art to my dear new host. A photograph or a drawing, nicely framed.

Share the art, share the joy.
