Hello! I grew up in Denmark, and moved to the UK at 11. So we speak Danish and English at home! :) But my family lives all over the world, Australia, Germany, Sweden, America, so we're an adventurous lot! I have been extensively studying art, since 2012, graduating with a first class in Fine Art this year. I can't see myself doing anything else but art! I would call myself a multimedia artist, I produce films and create installations. You can look at my website: www.ellenweeksart.co.uk if you like :) I love culture, food, music, creativity, and thrive amongst different crazy people : )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have finally graduated, so I'm free! I need a big change in my life and would love to meet lots of new people from all over the world :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music! And I have an extremely varied taste, from progressive rock, to classical to dark techno to metal. As long as it's good quality! I'm always hungry for new music, and I like to surround myself with musicians :) I play the piano myself, and sing a little. We should start a band? My favourite music at the moment is Marika Hackman, Nils Frahm, Four Tet, Mount Kimbie, Syd Arthur, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Agnes Obel, Weyes Blood, Connan Mockasin, Mac Demarco, Gorillaz, Suzanne Vega, David Bowie, She Keeps Bees.

I like to read too, I've recently read most of Margaret Atwoods work: The Robber Bride and The MadAdam trilogy...too Good!!

Movies I do like, however, I prefer to watch with someone. I like foreign cinema and arty films!
