About Me

Free spirit. Bachelor in history. Will be studying Nordic languages for one year from now and then become a teacher (what?! Yes, Id never thought my path would lead me there).
I am a generally outgoing person but also like to have my private time, just being with my dog and myself, writing or drawing or whatever. Always music on speakers. Like to go hiking in both nature and towns, and listen to live music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I randomly met a very nice, interesting Bulgarian girl who was couchsurfing through Scandinavia. And as I like to get to get to know new people, experience different people with different perspectives and just have a blast hanging around doing fun stuff, this CS thing seems like something I should involve myself in.
She inspired me to sign up and here I am, hoping to meet lots of new people, some of them may become true friends.

Interests

Skate- and snowboarding, enduro- and downhill bicycling, good books and movies, and lots of different sounds of music!

Surrealism.

I am also a bit of a nerd when it comes to world affairs, especially issues concerning the cultural and green-tech shift needed, and foreign policy and diplomacy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rescued my dog the other day that had fallen down at a cliff with a long way down from there. It was very sketchy. Could easily gone bad.
