Hi! My name is Ruth Elisabeth and I'm 21 years old happy female. I live in Sweden with my family on a small island outside Gothenburg. Last year I graduated from High School were I studied Social science. The past year I have been working at a nursing home. I really like to travel. As 17 years old I went to America as an foreign exchange student. I'm very flexible and I adapt easily to the surroundings around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel and by experience I have learned that to really get to know a culture and see the real side of a country you should talk and get to know the local people.

Interests

I love studying social science in high school. I think that is really interesting. with my high school we where out sailing for two months every year. We said across the atlantic oceans, down europe and around in the caribien. We had a lot of exchange with other schools and got to practice different culture. I love people and just see other culture, why people are living like they do. I have a big heart for traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies and books like hunger games, Divergent, the maze runner, 1984, V for Vendetta. They are books and movies about other ways of how the society could work. It interests me because our society today feels like the only way to govern the society but there must be other good ways too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been an exchange stunted, sailing around the world.
