Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To get to know the people of this small earth.
ABOUT ME
I'm outgoing and creative. I smoke too much and enjoy red vine in the wintertime and beer in the summer. The summers here are wonderfull and fore the most I go swimming in the sea or in some of the many lakes around here. My family lives a long way away so I enjoy new and old friends stopping by for a while.
PHILOSOPHY
i live by : Upphill it goes UPP!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I think if we all got along there would be world peace because we would come to the understanding that we are all the same.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I travelled in my teens in Europe and I always met interesting people and got to be a small part of their lives for a short time. It gave me the undertanding that people are people no mather what ;-)
Interests
In the wintertime it's having friends over for nice meals and good conversation. In the summer it's friends, the coffeshop downtown to look at all the tourists and swimming and sunbathing. Slow living and art.

Music, Movies, and Books
Old black and white, Romantic comedy and everything else that makes me feel good after looking at it. Music I like all kinds from metal to classic. I love a murder-mystery so well written that I can't guess the killer before the last page.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In our cold water we don't get sharks or dolphins. One summer I was swimming in the sea, I got a visit from a dolphin who had gotten too far north. It was amazing. I was in the water for hours, playing with him and when I was tired and went out, he was in the water calling me for hours before he disappeared.
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to learn more abouth the Far East, other religions. Bellydancing and joga maby? I can teach you (in theory at least) the making and history of glass. Norwegian cooking and slow food.
