About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Smile as much as I can!

ABOUT ME

If I have to describe me with only one word, it would be interested. I love learning (about anything really) and being with people. Consider myself an extrovert person, but listen more than I talk generally...:-) Every person has a story to tell and I would love to hear it. A lot of things make me smile, such as dancing, music, traveling, exercising, discussing, learning, cooking and of course eating.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to be other than happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Started off in Oslo with meetings and met some great people that really inspired me. Have surfed a few couches around the world at this stage, mainly in South America (so amazing experiences!) but also in South East Asia. Haven't been able to host any myself, but my current flat in Edinburgh is constantly hosting, so being part of the collective I've met a few...:-)

Interests

Moving in general, in all kinds of sport-activities (preferably outside), and to music - I LOVE dancing (lindyhop-fan, african dancing, latino-style, you name it)!
Cooking and eating has to come up on this list as well. I can spend the whole day in the kitchen as long as I can enjoy the results later in the company of my family/friends. Also very into gardening at the moment and want to learn more about permaculture and sustainable living. No waste is a motto I live by.
I love reading, especially when I learn more about my favorite subjects: psychology, social anthropology, international relations etc etc. Novels aren't too bad either once in a while...

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything with a nice rhythm, exciting, gripping and fun (which result in A LOOOOOOOT of various things...;-)).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking the Incatrail with a group of wonderful people in the beautiful surroundings of the Andes - so much fun!

Did a marvelous trek in Bariloche with my best friend. Very dangerous path, but what an adventure in this amazing setting!

Teach, Learn, Share

All my knowledge is open for others to learn from. In the same way I want to learn from other people and their experiences...
