I am an 18-year-old boy from Norway with origins from Ethiopia. This year is my last year in high school. I am an open minded, adaptable and easy-going person. I also like to challenge my self and expand my limits. Theatre and sport are one of my current hobbies. My philosophy is that chasing the "wonderful" moments and memories is meaningless, because we often tend to ignore appreciating the moments that come unplanned and spontaneously and that often are the good ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While staying in France for a year as an exchange student, where I stayed partly with a nice host family, I have experienced incredibly many things, seen wonderful places and met amazing people. It has been a superb year! It has given me a huge curiosity to explore other places and see other people and their culture. I found Couchsurfing really interesting and useful for this purpose. My vision is to learn something new, expand my social network and to develop my self with different and diversity ways of thinking .
