About Me

I do NOT use couchsurfing as Tinder. Please respect that.

I live in Balestrand, a small town with a big soul in the west of Norway. I'm open minded and I think it is so much fun to get to know people from all over the world, maybe over a meal or a beer.

I enjoy to travel and but my "list" for places I want to see is never ending 😂
My favorite thing when I'm going to new places is to explore the food - the world is full of amazing flavors!

I'm also quite found of trekking and hiking. My fitness level could definately be higher, but my will is strong and I'm a junkie for great views 😉

I work at a high school, where I teach entrepenuership, maths and physics.

My house is big and have a panoramic view over the Sognefjord. Nothing calms my soul more than sitting on the balcony watching the ferry cross the fjord over and over again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people and to learn about culture, politics and food from all over the world.

Interests

Sleeping under the stars, swimming in the fjord, or staying in watching tv makes me happy. I also like to affect the community I'm living in, so I'm a hobby politician for the Norwegian Christian Democrats
