About Me

WARNING!

Yes, we know Iceland is really expensive but we are not hosting just to provide a free place for people to sleep. If that's the only reason you are joining couchsurfing then we are not the hosts you're looking for! Give us a reason for why you think we'll get along :) and please let that reason be something other than "you look so open minded".

-----------------------------------------------------------

We are a couple living together in a small apartment in Reykjavik with our two cats Klumpur and Klessa.

Dagny: I can be very sarcastic. One of my philosophies is "Garbage in, garbage out." So if you ask a silly question I'm likely to give you a silly answer.

Otherwise I love to laugh, go out for drinks, spending time with my friends, seeing some bands performing, going camping, hiking, seeing new places and just having fun.

Helgi: When I'm not busy working I like to spend my time brewing beer, drinking beer, discussing beer and everything else related to beer and brewing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Helping foreigners and getting help when needed :)

We host in Reykjavik when we have time and then we try to surf as well. Meeting locals then travelling is such a great way to experience a new place.

Interests

Dagny: Travelling, travelling and travelling.
Music (and everything that comes with it - concerts - festivals - partying - discovering something brand new and different), hiking, painting, football (soccer) and being active.

Helgi: I like brewing, mead making, distilling, playing games, travelling and getting to know other cultures.
