About Me
ABOUT ME
Still looking for my place on this planet. The last two years have been the best of my life so far and couchsurfing has played a huge part in that. The people I met thought me to get out of comfort zone, they showed me how to confront my fears and how to live a released life. It is amazing how fast strangers become friends. I learned so much and there is still so much left to learn in this weirdo world... =)
PHILOSOPHY
"Here, too, I found neither home nor company. Nothing but a seat from which to view a stage where strange people played strange parts."
- Steppenwolf (Hermann Hesse)
WHAT I AM UP TO 2018
- Norway
- Lappland
- United States Westcoast
- Eastern Europe
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have always dreamed of travelling the globe and experiencing different cultures first hand and I believe you can't get to know a country and its people better than by living with its locals.
I lived in a few cities over the last years and was always happy to have somebody I can talk to, which is why I am totally into the idea of couchsurfing.
Also, it's just awesome to meet new, interesting people from different cultural backgrounds, from all over the world :)
Interests
- Music. I played the guitar for most of my life and am still in love with it. Also
learning to play piano for half a year now. I have also played in several bands over
the years, so maybe you are interested in jamming together?
- Every kind of creative activity. For me as a designer it is kind of my job to be
creative, but I also enjoy drawing, photography, sketching and painting in my
spare time.
- Reading. When I want to relax I go for a walk with a good book.
- Sports.
- Meeting new people all around the world. The possibility to travel around the
world and get to know different cultures and people is one of the greatest
things I am able to do!

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies:
Depends a lot on my mood, but there are movies I would recommend if asked:
The Shawshank Redemption, Interstellar, Fight Club, Forrest Gump, The Godfather, Oldboy, ... (to be continued)
Music:
Not easy. I like music I can connect and relax to, so most times I just listen to Channels like TinyDeskConcert, CardinalSession, KEXP.
I also like electronic music, go and check my Soundcloud to get an idea:
