CURRENT MISSION

Experience the United States

ABOUT ME

I am Hilda, a curious, spontaneous and openminded person who want to experience more of the world, its people and cultures.

I grew up i Stockholm, Sweden but after travels and exchanges around the world I feel more European than Swedish. Contrasts are a big part of my life. Meeting, getting inspired by and learning from people and cultures makes me feel 100% present in life.

PHILOSOPHY

be aware, curios and open

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm traveling through United States right now and my plan is to visit people I don't even know yet. Since this is my first visit in the US I want to get a real taste of it and get an insight in people's daily life.

So I'm starting in Dallas, TX. It's extreme american - and I love it! Would love to visit Chicago and am thinking about traveling along the West Coast. Woho!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have any CS Experiences yet and am trying to understand how it's working!
