Norwegian student studying plants in Malaysia.
Having lived here for one year already, I still enjoy getting to see as much of Asia as I can while I am here as well as getting to know the Malaysian way of life better every day.

Each day is another step on the journey, a gift which we choose to accept or ignore.

I am also a pescetarian, meaning I don't eat red meat or poultry but still enjoy seafood.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new to Couchsurfing but it seems like a great way to meet new people on travels and a unique opportunity to learn what they have to share and to get to see places in a new country that are not necessarily given in the guidebooks.

Interests

Travelling obviously, I really enjoy learning about new cultures and seeing places I never imagined going to before. I am also a big fan of being in nature especially mountain trekking and cross-country skiing (but not so many chances for that lately!)

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy music and listen to all sorts of genres
Jurassic Park, Great Gatsby, Blood Diamond and Invictus are all great movies!;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled for 3 consecutive days from Malaysia to Greenland over the summer to work. Although it was a huge shock at first to go from tropical paradise to icebergs and midnight sun, it was unforgettable experience that taught me lot.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always like to learn new languages as such skills will always come in handy one day. I like hearing about other peoples' opinions and knowledge as they probably know a lot that i don't.
I can share what I learned from living in 6 different countries and some Norwegian language.
