ABOUT ME
I'm a Norwegian who recently moved from Melbourne to Vancouver, after completing my Bachelor's degree in psychology and geography. I am now pursuing my Master's in Resources, Environment and Sustainability at UBC. I love the simple pleasures in life - good conversations, sunsets, nature and good food, and I am very much enjoying the outdoorsy lifestyle which is super easy here in Vancouver. I also love travelling, discovering all the incredibly diverse corners of the world and what they have to offer, meeting new people and just making the most out of every day. I am open-minded, want to see as much as possible, and meet awesome people along the way.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think discovering a new place through others who actually live there is a great way to appreciate how the "normal" of others is so different but at the same time relatable to your life, and I think there is immense power in sharing and connecting over such experiences. Couchsurfing allows you to get acquainted, share stories, food and parts of yourself with other people which I really appreciate. I have met some incredible people through Couchsurfing so far and think it is a great community.
Interests
I spend most of my time outside and love going for runs and hikes. One of my favorite things to do is to eat, and I love trying out new dishes wherever I go. Other interests include cultures, languages, food, sports (soccer in particular), exercise, and since spending two months in Nepal I just want to go climbing and trekking.

Music, Movies, and Books
I cannot decide what my favorite book is. I read a lot of psychology related books.
