About Me

I'm more then half century old as I say 😁
I'm not perfect, and I actually think that there's no perfect or rather that everyone is perfect as they are. I try to be positive and take life as it is. I know I can not change what I can not change and there is no reason to be annoyed.
I have a 25-year-old daughter, but she does not live with me. I live with my 19 years old Norwegian-Icelandic forest cat so please note that my home is not for those who are allergic to cats.

I like swimming in the sea, hiking, mountain running and cycling.
I swim in the sea and running three days at week and at summer time I use my bike 2 days a week.

I'm working at two or three places that's all about menthal health. It's the mental health hospital and at the Health Carse. In winter time I'm also work as a peer supporter in a school called Bataskóli Íslands or the Icelandic recover school.
I train a soccer team that is appointed by people who have suffered from mental illness and others who want to support such a task. The goal of this project is to promote people's health and reduce prejudice to people with mental illness. The team is called FC Sækó (psycho :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The reason I'm at Couchsurfing is that I want to meet people from other countries.
I would also like to visit other countries and will definitely ask for accommodation at any of yours sometime.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kind of music but I think I like rock music most. Some of my favorite is Led Zeppelin, U2, Queen, Bruce Springsteen, Genesis and of course some Icelandic like Sigurós and Agent Fresco. My favorite movie is Scent of a Woman with Al Pacino.
I do not read much but my favorite book is The Good Soldier Švejk by Jaroslav Hašek.
