About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm pretty booked in August-September but you can of course try

ABOUT ME

I'm 100 percent extrovert :o), so I love to meet new people and cultures. I have been many places in the world. I think my interest that I have described below will tell who I am.

PHILOSOPHY

Being fit and happy and the rest of the time staying positive - and being loving and kind to others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've lived with a roommate until recently, so I'm very new to couch surfing. I hope to meet people from all over the world - especially countries that I haven't visited yet!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

I do a lot of sports (running, fitness, soccer and wind+kite+wave surfing, skiing, diving).
I go out a lot to cafés, bars and restaurants.
Love to go to cinema (I never watch TV) and concerts (I prefer to use my money on small interesting bands than one big expensive name)

Music, Movies, and Books

Some of the best movies are the ones from Lars Von Trier - Dogville and Mandalay. Pulp fiction was my favorite for many years.

Music: Definitely Sigur Rós! The XX, The National and many more. And the good upcoming Danish bands - for example:

Books: I read to few books, but I just read Albert Camus "The Stranger" and have earlier read "The Fall" - both made a big impression on me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I climbed a 6K mountain in Peru. There is a longer story to that but it might have been a near death experience to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Very explicit thing I would like to share: When you come to Copenhagen, go to the Spiral Church Tower near Christiania. It has the best view of Copenhagen and it is 360 degrees. The Church is called Vor Frelser Kirke (Our Saviors Church).
