CURRENT MISSION

To never stop having a mission! (or just teach that bloody parrot some new swear words)

ABOUT ME

UPDATE:
Currently living in Sydney, AUS, and will be there until late 2014 at least. Always open for meetups and such though!

I´m an emergency nurse living in downtown Reykjavík. I work long hours, but try to use my spare time to work out, go for a walk/drive in the mountains, party with friends and do the best of my spare time. I live in a small apartment with 2 couches, and also there´s a 7 year old African Grey parrot living with me. I´ve traveled a little myself, to places including Palestine, Australia, Brazil, Haiti and so on. Interested in hosting interesting people from all around the world and if possible, maybe show them a little around Reykjavík and it´s surroundings.

I do have a modified Jimny (see pictures) which can take me pretty much anywhere, so taking people on short mountain trips is always an option (if road/trail conditions allow), if help with gas is provided

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, and (un)fortunately it ends one day (who would want to live forever anyway?;) lol ). So live your life as it was a rollercoaster ride, and when you get to the end of it you want to look back and say ,,FUCK YEAH! That was one hell of a ride!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

love hosting, haven´t surfed myself - yet

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I´ve hosted some people at my place for 1 up to 7 nights. Sometimes I´ve had the chance to take them around town, go cave exploring, check out some pretty locations with them or go partying with, but sometimes I´ve only been able to see them for a short period of time when I´m not working. Most awesome day was though eith one cs-er when we first went to Þingvellir national park, went cave exploring in Leiðarendi lava tube, took a jeep tour behind lake Kleifarvatn and ended the day with an awesome night out in downtown Reykjavík

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lying on the top of a mountain/viewpoint in Petra, Jordan - with a bunch of friends who worked with me in Palestine and a group of random Beduins. Being high on life and happy for 2 days straight at that place with the beduins chanting the whole time was yeah - amazing?
