About Me

I drink one cup of coffee at the time.
Coffee is the answer, the question is irrelevant.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m constantly learning new things that soothes my curiosity for human nature and that’s how I want to have it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Carrying life inside my womb.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Icelandic and Swedish and how to carve spoons or small faces. I can also show you how to crochet or help you with gardening amongst other things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help with care of animals, gardening or teach you how to carve a spoon or a face. I’m interested in languages and I find it fascinating how we have developed a sound system with mutual understanding of meaning. Unwritten rules and social norms is something that amaze me, and all unspoken communication (body language). Wondering what is in human nature and what is of cultural nature and other philosophical thoughts I’d gladly chat about. I’m open and honest and a good listener.
