About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living Life instead of just talking about doing so. Low budget, low impact, high experience, high adventure! -that was me ten years ago. Now I'd say live a healthy life, work hard and enjoy the weekends!

ABOUT ME

Quiet and friendly. I try not to judge people at once, and wish people do the same to me. Perhaps, if you read my references, you get a picture of who I am...

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change..start with yourself...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had many good experiences with CS and my hosts as well as surfers, I've had
lots of couchsurfing experiences in the first 5 years after which I grew tired of the numerous requests to feeload. I'm back, 10 years later to give couchsurfing another go. BTW, my wife Emma is also a couchsurfer and meeting her would be my best couchsurfing experience yet!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Adventure, Si-Fi, Drama and Action. Though animated and anime like studio ghibli are generally my favorite
Music: rock, electronica, jazz, can also be pop if its not overplayed..
Books: Steig Larsson's trilogy, I read them all but I rarely read otherwise. But magazines are always welcome!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Why one when you have many! Seen and played in 1 meter deep snow! Seen the Nordic Lights! Seen my feet glow in the phosphorescence in the sea. Helped stop an attempted murder.
