About Me

Born in 1996 in Denmark. Since I graduated High School I've stayed in Tanzania for 10 months volunteering at an orphanage and starting a project for street children. Tanzania entered my heart completely - and I just want to get to know more cultures and languages and to help. Therefore I went to Honduras to stay at another children's home for 6 months. Did some backpacking in South, Central and North America from there.
Jesus is a huge part of my life. He gives me the reason to get up every day and to smile and rejoice. He gives me my absolute purpose and comfort and he just continues to give! I am a christian and I believe that all people no matter differences of any kind are created to be loved. That's the vision I strive to have for everyone I meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I LOVE traveling! I have extremely many dreams on where to go and what to do the next many years - it's like the world is just out there waiting to be explored! I'm an openminded, mild, tolerant, humorous and outgoing person. So the possibility to combine traveling with getting to know people from all around the globe is just perfect to me!
