Overview
About Me
I'm a 24 year old physicist from Norway. After finishing my studies at MIT, I started a drone transportation company: Aviant, my passion!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
In January 2020 I couch surfed while taking the train across the US continent. I was mightily impressed by the kindness of my hosts, and now I want to share more amazing experiences!
Interests
I've played the piano for a pretty long time, but recently I started learning jazz. I love it! Actually creating music gives a totally different view from just planting it (classical is also great, though, but in another way).
When I'm not working on Aviant or playing the piano, I spend my time drinking beer with friends, missing my dog and mapping out locations with good (or better, free) coffee.

Music, Movies, and Books
Favorite music: Currently I'm shuffling between Kamasi Washington, Manu Chao and Black Box Recorder.
Favorite series: Breaking Bad. I delayed watching it to spire everybody who told me to watch it, but I'm glad I finally buckled.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Developed and published an algorithm for quantum computers, improved the efficiency of a waste combustion powerplant by 9% and became the poster boy of the Norwegian Defence Research Institute.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd love to share my experiences as a small-town Norwegian. I can also tell you why quantum computers are awesome and why fusion energy is the way to go!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Interesting conversation with someone of a not-so-common nationality, good company (vague, I know) and lots of smiles (at least I will).
