Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Well. It's pretty basic stuff. Just to simply meet & greet, share imaginative stories, hear about peoples adventurous lives, explore urban environments. Live basically.
ABOUT ME
I am a student currently living in Århus to finish my studies at the university. I use my days listening to music, going to cultural events, hanging out with friends, meeting people and exploring the city. I like going out, especially to outdoor events in the summertime and generally I am just enjoying life and whatever winding roads it takes me down.
PHILOSOPHY
Be humble, be openminded, explore, create and break down barriers.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Offering a good chat, an interesting look at the second biggest city in Denmark and a cup of tea or coffee.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I am relatively new to the whole concept. But I have been co-hosting a couple of times, and found it interesting and simply a great, warm and important concept to challenge the individualist nature of modern societies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share
I have always been curious. So I like any kind of story, may that be personal anecdotes, weird jokes, local histories or just about anything as long as it is told with enthusiasm.
I can help with debates concerning the state of European and World politics, and I am gladly sharing my knowledge of cultural theory, which might be a quite effective lullaby:)
