About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am born and raised in Oslo. I love the city, its got everything and also nothing. You can spend hours in nature and then take the subway to the city centre. It's awesome and I want to make sure you can appreciate its awesomeness.

I'm a fairly chilled out guy, but with a severe love for food. I might forget your name and the conversation we were having if I am hungry, and will already now apologize in advance. But hey, we might have something in common, and that might make it all good?

From my 22 years on earth, I spent 3 great years in Manchester studying. And met people from all over the world, I love people and their ability to smash stereotypes. With a sledgehammer. People are people. you can't know them till you meet them, and why we have opinions about people we only have heard about and never seen, met or spoken to is besides me.

So. That is why I like to stay with people who inspire me and have passion for what they do. Knitting or kickboxing, its all cool. do what floats your boat.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is that everything can be solved.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm going to host as much as I can. Just write me a proper non-copy-paste-request.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
First time surfing in Antwerp. Latest in Berlin.
first time hosting in Oslo.

Interests

I am a foodie, and quite hungry almost always. It is a bit sad. But seriously, food is always the important thing in my day.

I also like engineering art, using maths and physics to create stuff. Stuff you use and makes the day better.

Also like art, non standard ways to materialize passion, sports and fitness.

I want to see myself in a position in a few years where I am working on development helping people help themselves. Adding value through my work that not only stops at the dollar.

Music, Movies, and Books

i should read more.. but i tend to read non fiction and get the point before completing.
But Thinking Fast and Slow has been a interesting read lately. Similarly I like Paulo Coello books and probably would say Kite Runner has been one book I could read again soon.

music:
where do I even begin..
In chronological order from when I was born and raised till today.
Rock(beatles, led zepplin,) rap (eminem, immortal technique) hip hop,(beastie boys, run dmc, jurassic 5, outkast) jazz(various) and some drum and bass(netsky, dimensions, chase and status) its all bit messy, and i am probably not going to ask you to turn down what ever you're listening to. and a bit of funky stuff people send me on soundcloud.
