CURRENT MISSION

Hitching around the Baltic Sea!

ABOUT ME

I'm a twenty-four year old student from the non-Copenhagen part of Denmark (a fact which i choose to take some pride in).

That's the easy bit. Apart from that I'm an exceedingly tall person which enables me to reach stuff in high places etc. It's also a bit impractical sometimes. Also, I believe I'm a rather friendly and relaxed person. I'm not sensitive or delicate in any way and will gladly sleep almost anywhere and eat almost everything :-)
Prefers a nice pub or bar to a discotheque or a club or whatever "you kids call it these days" - I'm kind of boring that way.

If there's anything else you'd like to know, feel free to ask!

PHILOSOPHY

Wasn't aware I was supposed to have one of those :-( I'll think about it!
Edit: I'm really excited about whatever comes out of Svend Brinkmann (who'll probably be familiar to most Danish-speakers).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not that much yet, but I intend to!

As part of moving to a new town (Roskilde) and a new university I'm sort of between homes at the time of writing which is why I literally do not have a place to host travelers in, but as soon as I get that sorted out it is definitely my plan to start hosting.

My experience is that traveling becomes something entirely different in the company of a "native". I hope to be able to do that more as well help others to the same experience if I can.

My somewhat naive, romantic-leftist idea is that in a NON-commercial community like this you'll naturally meet more genuine and interesting (and quirky/strange) people than you otherwise would (since all the douchie ones will naturally avoid it). And I really appreciate that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm rather new to CS though I've surfed two times and hosted one time.

Interests

I really enjoy riding my bike. Also I really appreciate food, (craft) beer and music (especially live music). If any of those things can be combined with traveling - either by hitching or more conventional means - that would be the best!

I have a big interest in almost any topic within subjects like politics, sociology, history, economics, geography, culture (philosophy) and the like.

Also I'm really interested in the situation in Palestine/Israel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like Fight Club.

I like a lot of different rock music as well as jazz, blues, folk, gypsy music and other things

I really enjoy reading books and magazines about the above subjects :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I realised a few years back that hitch hiking is a real travel-alternative and that people are not nearly as paranoid and xenophobic as they are sometimes made out to be!
