Overview
About Me
Hey, I'm Aggie. I have recently returned to Norway from living in Perth Australia for the last 4,5 years. Been living in Oslo since May 2015, and so far I'm really loving it.
I'm into design, making things, speaking languages, discovering music, and meeting fun, interesting and kind people. Emphasis on the kind part. I appreciate personal and good conversations (preferably accompanied by good coffee). I like discovering local artists, be it musicians, illustrators, photographers or something else completely. I care about strengthening and supporting the local culture scene, so I tend to go to market fairs, street festivals, small art exhibitions and the sort. I'll also try to catch a live act every now and then if I can, but I prefer small venues and I'm tired of the stadium type gigs. I think I might be too old for that now :p
I'm a social introvert. Meaning that I really enjoy being social and am quite happy to talk to new people, but I need to have some time alone to recharge afterwards.
We are an all-girl sharehouse and will not accept any male couchsurfers. I ask that you respect that and stop sending requests if you are male, thanks.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love movies. There are too many favorites to mention. I like the ones that challenges you. I also have a thing for bad movies though - you know, the ones that are so bad it's funny. Troll 2 and The room as classics.
All of these TV-shows are really good or really funny:
Six Feet Under, Game of Thrones, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Arrested Development, Modern Family, Community, The Office UK, Peep Show, IT Crowd, Spaced, Archer, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Futurama, Simpsons, Bobs Burgers and Parks & Recreation.
I also love documentaries. I watch about one a day, in average. For some reason I'm almost obsessed with Air Crash Investigation and mass murderers. Call it morbid curiosity? Anything by Luis Theroux is great. Also podcasts like This American Life, Radiolab, Nerdist podcast and How Did This Get Made.
Music is sort of important to me, and it ties in with my design world a lot of the time. Bon Iver, Architecture in Helsinki, Radiohead, The National, Bright Eyes, Iron & Wine, The Mountain Goats, Sigur Ros, Mew, Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire, Sufjan Stevens, Damien Rice, Death Cab For Cutie, Explosions in the Sky, Royksopp and the list goes on and on and on. You get the picture.
I do enjoy reading some times. The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson, Freakonomics, She's come undone - Wally Lamb, THGTTG - Douglas Adams, The Lovely Bones - Alice Sebold. Would probably read more books if I didn't have the attention span of a puppy.
