I'm relatively new to living in Stockholm, moved here 3 years ago to start a PhD in regenerative medicine. Stockholm is a beautiful city with breathtaking nature and plenty of little bars, cafes and restaurants which need to be discovered and shared. I've lived in Munich, Montpellier and Edinburgh before. I enjoy meeting strangers, making new friends, having adventures and getting a local perspective.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be in Kyoto and Osaka in August/ September. This is my first trip to Japan and although I am very independent and happy to explore by myself I would love to meet some friendly locals to show me around or share tips for eating, drinking and getting to know Japanese culture. So I'm giving couch surfing a try :)
