About Me

MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm all about traveling and been lucky to have visited many extraordinary places and met incredible people. But then again, is it ever enough?

After spending 18 years in school, I have been trying to escape the responsibility to decide what is next. At the moment I do what I love, spending most of the year living out of my suitcase, working as a group leader of organized tours all around Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

BACK ON THE ROAD UNTIL THE SUMMER, NO HOSTING UNTIL THEN.

In the past few years my couchsurfing activiy has been down to zero, due to the insane amount of studying I had to do. Now with all the work and being away, even less time.

Please note: In case you contact me for any reason, please indicate that you have read my profile. For me Couchsurfing has always been about meeting people, not just a free option of accommodation. I will turn down copypaste messages. Also, if you are coming with someone, please link their CS profile as well.

Living in Greenland for 7 months and traveling there and in Iceland for 6 weeks was the most incredible travel experience so far.
