Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I host when I can and travel when the world calls.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
So far most of my trips were done before I joined the CS network. But I intend to do a lot more of that. Meanwhile I enjoy getting a fill of the traveling spirit by hosting people. The local community here is also quite active; so far I got nothing but good things to say about this fancy.
Interests
People, travelling, music, nature, medicine, fantasy, medieval history, you, me, them, the world, space!
Music has kept me busy for a long time, but the last few years I´ve also started to absorb all info I come across about ecology, climate changes and sustainable living. Yes! I´m on a mission to save the world. Feel free to join me :)

Music, Movies, and Books
The Lord of the Rings is a work of genious that when I read it as a kid created a new world and atmosphere that will never leave my consciousness. Others come to mind, though that could be a long list once I start.
Many styles of music can fascinate me, as I´ve been playing and therefore diving closer into most of them. Jazz, fusion, various folk and gypsy music, progressive rock, bluegrass and medieval music all tickles my inspiration. But what I cannot do without for a longer period is some solid rock´n´roll, and Irish folk music. When I need to get my fill of those I tend to do this

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Beeing in Beijing and looking up at what I first thought was the moon, was quite absurd. Watching the landscape gradually change during the transsiberian was also interesting. Dolphins playing around the bow of our local tallship while sailing to Holland, is definetly purely beautiful. Most amazing though, will allways be the people I meet and the stories they tell.
Teach, Learn, Share
What I can teach for anyone interested could be Norwegian, English, playing bass, mandolin, basic guitar or drums, most things computer related, and general tips & tricks on surviving and enjoying LIFE ;)
