About Me

Well well, Dear couch surfer... where should I start?

I describe my self open minded alternative minimalist human being who pretends to be an artist and actually can eat every thing in the world except waffles with jam. I don´t have Facebook, Instagram, twitter, snapchat or even Tinder. So if we get in touch with each other through couch surfing, then you have the honour of getting in touch with me through the only social media I have (except DeviantArt).

I have never had a television or a car in my life, but lot of experience that I have learned from and made me to the person I am today. I have lived and worked in both Denmark and Norway 40% of my life (2 years in Denmark and 10 in Norway) so from cultural point of view I describe my self often more as an Nordic than Icelandic. I know lot of people around the north side of Europe (Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Greenland, Faroe Islands). and that makes things more interesting for you as a tourist, as we can discuss what makes those countries similar and what is the difference.

But I have also been in more places than just Scandinavia. As I was travelling more than less all 2019. mostly in Eastern Europe volunteering and permaculture communities that was trying to stay self-sufficiency. My dream is to try to get away from the normal society (the life where I have to work 160 hours every month and pay tax). And rather try to explore the world more. that's why couch surfing can be a good opportunity to make connection in a different places in the world.

some facts about me:

I Like long distance walking. I walk at least 2 hours every day, It makes my brain think clearer.
I like long hot shower, it makes my brain think clearer.
I like to drink Turkish coffee, it makes my brain think clearer.
I can play random cords on guitar for hours, something that most audience usually would not describe as a song or music, that's my meditation. it makes my brain thinks clearer.
I don't drink alcohol, use a tobacco or take any kind drug or substance, Simpy because it doesn't make my brain think clearer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: mostly metal, psychedelic rock and punk. but also classical music, funk and jazz. I have been inspired a lot of music from the middle east the later years.

I really like cartoons, adventure time, the twisted tales of Felix the cat, Rick and Morty, Futurama....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have just made 3 things that I am proud of in my life

I walked from Skopje (the capital of Macedonia) to Pristina (the capital of Kosovo) and it took me 3 days. I tent in the forest on the way.

I manage to made a airplane became 15 minutes too late from Norway to Finland after discussion with a ticket agents (when I was to late to the gate) where I explained to the person that I "have to get this flight". she made a call some person in the end and I got a private buss that drove me to the airplane... 150 passenger became too late because of me,...

I record a album called doomsday delivery with a band called I swear damnation when I lived in Norway... its on Spotify and google play

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some basic on guitar, scales, music theory. I learned classical guitar for many years but that doesnt mean im a pro teacher :)

Draw: some technics with colouring pencils

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I don*t have a car or television and not really outgoing, A private room with a bed is one of the really few things... I do eat dumpster dived food sometimes as I'm a part in a non profit organisation that protest food wasting and share food from the dumpster to refugees. we have peoples kitchen every second Wednesday and it could be nice to take a couch surfer with me.
