CURRENT MISSION
To learn and enjoy life
ABOUT ME
22 year old student in Aberdeen, from Norway. I love to travel, I love music, I love to meet people, make friendships and create bonds. Collecting lovely memories while I travel that I can enjoy thinking about at home.
PHILOSOPHY
Don't have that quite figured out yet. But as an outset it is to live life to the fullest while treating people around me well and being considerate. I think I can get far with that, in the sense of human relations and good living.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Had my first experiences couchsurfing rather recently, which was the summer of 2012. Me and my friend surfed with three lovely hosts. Upcoming is my trip to Edinburgh, in October, that I look so much forward to, I'm actually thrilled about it. And I'm going to New York City for Christmas! My first time to another continent, and I'm staying with people I met during my interrail :)
I live in a rather small city, so the interest for surfing here probably isn't too high, but I want to host, if there's people who come by.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Only good experiences. I've only been to three hosts, but up to this point I've felt nothing but hospitality and friendlyness. I look forward to surfing, and hosting more in the future :)

Seeing my favourite bands play live.
Small precious moments while travelling that you remember.
Sharing special moments with someone else.
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy meeting people with an open mind, people who do not judge, people that possess knowledge without having a know-it-all attitude, but that listens and tries to understand from the other persons persepctive. People who care for others. People who loves a good laugh, who can enjoy a good night out and let down their shoulders while simply enjoying!
