About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My boyfriend Max and I will be biking from Bex, Switzerland to San Sebastián, zig zagging across France, and we would LOVE to meet people along the route! We are hoping to spend the night and couch surf in every town we stay in, whenever possible!

ABOUT ME

I am 28 years old, and recently graduated from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy with a master's in conflict resolution. I am an avid runner, biker, and I love to approach life with action and enthusiasm. I am a Danish-American with a love for meeting people and exchanging ideas and philosophy.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that everyone has a story and that personal interactions are the best way to understand the world. I try to live my life in quest for constant learning, and in search of unforeseen connections.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be couch-surfing with my boyfriend Max throughout our bike trip from Switzerland to Spain.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch-surfed on a bike trip with my best friend from Denmark to Switzerland 5 years ago. It was the best experience of my life as we got to learn much more about the culture and the people in the places that we were biking through.

Interests

I have truly LOVED the 10 couch surfing destinations that i have had in my lifetime. Perhaps my favorite was pulling up to a house after a day of long biking and finding an extremely nice woman waiting for us inside. We had wonderful conversation over a plate of spaghetti, and later sent her a postcard to update her on our trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to teach a bit of Danish, perhaps some cooking skills, and I would be happy to engage in conversation about the philosophy of government, human being, and citizen.
