I grew up in Kristiansand, Norway, but I moved to Odense in Denmark to study engineering. When I finished school I got a job in Kristiansand and moved back. I have a cat named Frøya who is very nice... when she feels like it.
I like trying new things, and I try to be spontaneous and easy going.
I always try to be helpful and friendly to the people around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've traveled with couch surfing and hosted a few people now. It's given me a lot of fantastic experiences.

Interests

I like to read good books, watch movies, exercise and listen to music.
I also spend some of my spare time doing volunteer work for Save the Children. I help plan and and carry out activities for kids who live in asylum centers in my home town. It's a lot of fun and incredibly rewarding.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a two week road trip with my sister in a purple convertible around northern Europe. It was amazing, and some of my best memories are from that trip. We couch surfed the whole way, and we met so many incredible people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to improve my German. I make an awesome carrot cake, and like to share the recipe.
