My name is Amalie.
Originally from Denmark, now living in London, UK.

I have this odd passion for game-art, portrait painting, and character design. Maybe one day I'll get to design for video games for a living.

I truely believe that all folks are created equal in abillity, and you can learn any skill, big or small. Talent doesn't exist, only hard work and passion does. You need to make yourself the person you want to become.

I am sure that I can learn something from you, and you can learn something from me in return. Let's meet up for a drink and find out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been couchsurfing while staying in Reykjavik, Iceland and here in London. I am hooked on the idea, and would love to couchsurf more as soon as I have the money and time to travel.
Would really like to host people as well, but unfortunately, my current place isn't suited for it.

Interests

I'm a doodle'er, a coffeedrinker, a concert-goer, a cocktail enthusiast, a workout girl, a gamer, a headbanger, and a moviewatcher. (Because who doesn't like a good movie-explosion and a Mojito every now and then?)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed homeless on Iceland for weeks.
And yes, I have had Mezcal with the worm.
