About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To bring more equality to the world, and to make our educational system ten times as good as the one we have now.

ABOUT ME

Person-wise I am a 25 year old thinker who can remember having been a 12-year-old thinker, and who expects one day to become a 80-year-old thinker. I'm also an ant - a 'foreigner' amidst a big beautiful Copenhagen - an optimist and a workaholic if I'm not careful, an admirer of altruism, and an oil and water combination of ambition, decency, insecurity, certainty and drive.

PHILOSOPHY

I guess I get close to sharing the Buddhist point of view of the carmic nature of things, and the interrelatedness of everything: love, hate and jealousy included. The meaning of life is depending on what you bring in to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll love to meet and talk with couchsurfers. I'll be traveling this summer, and might from time to time be looking for a host.
I might also be able to share my own couch for shorter periods of time, in the flat that I currently live in with 4 other people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first couchsurfing experience, and I'm looking very much forward to it.

Interests

Philosophy, linguistics, arbitraryness - chaos theory that is, psychology, frankness, to break with the habits and the paradigms I catch myself and other people living in. sociology, history, physics and the list is long - anything basically.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I don't do movies that much anymore, i prefer to go meet people. I can talk about them though, if approriate.
Music: The Strokes and other Rock bands.
Books: I like audiobooks especially. Narrators sometimes do a really good job - I appreciate their ability to change their tonality. Also non-fictious (audio)books are very good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to new york once and saw the high buildings, and the poor areas of harlem. Briefly afterwards I went to Bulgaria, and saw its rural areas it's bumby roads and mountainshaped landscape, and fully appreaciated the difference between the two.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love thinking yet I experience that it often is helpful not to!
