Overview
About Me
We are a couple living in Denmark, Copenhagen. We have been together since 2007.
Claes, 30, has interests in film and photography and is currently working as a programmer
Elena, 27, has interests in books and nature. Currently working as a psychologist. (Hi.. dont know why im writing in 3. Person?)
We spend our time working and talking about life (preferably all night...talking, that is..) We have become linked to CS because we want to experience the world in a different way than the way prescribed to you by the tourist conventions.
PHILOSOPHY
Claes and I talk often about life and the purpose of it. We are often in a dilemma... We think about freedom, dreams, goals, adventures and travels and on the other hand; education, economy, duties and norms. It's not that these elements can't be reconciled, but they can often be a hindrance to each other .. But in fact, it is probably primarily ourselves that's the obstacle, which we try to challenge... We try to break down the norms about life that dosen't appeal to us and create something, that will give the feeling "We did it well.." the day we both have to leave earth.
ehh... dont be scared! Most of the time, we are pretty happy about life :D .. Kind of.. (Dostojevskij has a big impact on us, sorry).
Interests
Books, gigs, films, making visual art, snowboarding, philosophising, yoga, cooking, trying new things out and... Wait for it.. waaaait for it....Travelling!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The day we met (.. Do you see the white doves and violins coming near?).
I once found an ad, where a man was looking for a driver on his journey to Italy. Without knowing him and never met, we decided to drive with him. It turned out to be a amazing experience, where we together drove across a number of countries and saw the sunrise in beautiful Swiss!
