About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to figure out what I want do be when I grow up...! Latin American adventure Vol. 5

ABOUT ME

BACK IN MY BELOVED CPH!!

Oh and: I'll just keep my earlier profiles:

August-June 2014:
Growing up is fun! Especially when having the chance to be in a developing country, developing projects...!
I will be in La Paz for an indefinit amount of time (minimum of 6 months) with the aim of figuring out how I can use my education. + well, have fun.
August 2012:
Back to school in September! JIIIIHA! But lets join in a short adventure before the seriousness of life catches up with me again...! Viva España! I'm heading south, to Andalucia. I need to check out this region of variety: flamenco, tapas, beaches, surf, and Arabic influence!

December 2011:
Took a year off, checked out of the serious life for a while and went to see the Norwegian fiords, mountains, forests, villages, and cities to reimburst myself. And suddenly the Latin American culture startet calling for me again... Nicaragua is to be re-experianced. Aaaand I have the joy of finally showing my lil'sis the continent that is luring me away from my comfortable scandinavian life again and again and again.

July 2010:
Oh, what I feel I have grown since I wrote my profile here. Haha! Well, it's kind of true, so I'll keep it for now! Just keep in mind that I'm currently living in BA and I'm studying and not only bumming around the world without comitments...! (oh and, that I'm 3 years older..)

May 2007:
"Have you ever thought about how everyone's profile is exactly the same? Having an interesting profile is hard work, so that's why mine is gonna be short and exactly like everyone else's.

Here we go..I'm a 20 years old girl from Norway who absolutely loves to travel (like everyone..). I would have liked to live in each country of the whole world for a month if it was possible, just to get to know all the different cultures and specialties of each country!:)Love meeting new and interesting people (cliche i know, but that's how it is...), having fun and simply enjoy life:)

Hopefully you got something out of my description, but never judge a book by its covers."

PHILOSOPHY

Norwegian saying: "Husk aa elske mens du toer det, husk aa leve mens du gjoer det!" It sounds better in norwegian, but it means that you have to remember to love when you have the guts to, and remember to live while you're alive.

Interests

Ok, I'm interessted in travelling (obviously), my friends (whom I adore), dancing (expecially salsa-siiii, me gusta!), music (who isn't?)...

Music, Movies, and Books

I am currently reading: After Dark by Murakami...

Earlier I stated:
Paulo Coelho is a genious! Love all his books! And the Norwegian writer Kristin Valla, with her book "Muskat", is amazing! Think I've read it 9 times now...! When it comes to music I listen to alot, but if I have to pick a genere it would be kind of chill rock - if I can call it that? Anyhow, I'm into: Angus and Julia Stone, Mumford and Sons, Rumour Said Fire, Maria Mena, James Morrison, Paolo Nutini, John Mayer, Michael Jackson, +

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"The Gibbon Experiance"! In northeast of Laos there's a project that started some years ago, wich is about saving the forrest, and the animalt that lives in it. You basically play around in the jungle all day by hanging in zip-lines,-some several hundred meters up in the air, and you eat loades of food, and sleep in little treehouses! The best experiance!
