About Me

Hi there! I am a Danish guy, born and raised and (now again) living in Copenhagen.

I love reading, playing music, learning languages, hiking, going to art exhibitions, and of course... traveling! This I know we will have in common :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have couchsurfed in cities around the US, Asia, South America and Europe and I have also hosted a couple of times in Copenhagen - every time a great experience.

There is so much good out there in the world and I want to reach out and be part of it - I think Couchsurfing is one of many ways to do that. I really like to connect with the people I meet and to practice more kindness, empathy and mutual understanding.
