My name is Elias, I study and live in Copenhagen with 2 friends, whom I share an apartment with. Technically I don’t have a couch, however I do have a madras.
I love meeting new people and exploring cultures that are very different from my own one. If you want additional information, you can probably find it on my profile. If that’s not the case, I will be happy to answer any— and all questions you might have.
Regards, Elias

Music, Movies, and Books

I like classic movies especially from the 60’s and 70’s - from directors such as Scorsese, Spielberg, Kubrick, F. F. Coppola, Fellini, Etc. I enjoy contemporary danish poetry and non fiction books. I have broad music taste, but lately I’ve been listening to Chet Baker, Ben Webster, Cigarettes after sex and The Beatles and Frank Zappa too. Obviously I’m obsessed with the music of Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash, I am human after all - I especially enjoy their song “girl from north country”. Simon and Garfunkel are personal favorites as well, likewise I enjoy listening to Otis Redding. I almost forgot to mention Pink Floyd, melody gardot, ray Charles, the smiths, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac and dire straits, now I’m done.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did an exchange year in Southern California when I was younger. In a nutshell, it was the best thing I’ve ever done... but the most amazing thing, has to be the fact, that I was turned down by David Hasselhoff twice in one day. What an asshole.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don’t have much to teach yet, I think I’m mostly in the learning and sharing phase. But then again; I do know lots of corny movie quotes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my thoughts, my old record player, you can borrow a book if that’s you’re thing. I have a toilet and running water, that I can easily share as well.
