About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm 47 yrs, both crazy and easy going.

I love to sleep somewhere quiet.

I'm danish, but I've also lived in Holland and France

I'm currently taking a break from hosting (I'm renting out my apartment, and the host where I'm staying are not cf minded).

I get way to many request - so I only take people who share interests with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting local people and to travel low budget.

I find that knowing my town, I can add to peoples experience by guiding them to find the best food, get special experiences, get around with the public transport.

I love adding to other peoples experience and to help them get a good impression of my country.

Interests

Tantra, Tango, Buddhism, Camino ( and other hikes) and 12 steps.

I love learning - I speak some French, a little German and dutch and I'm taking on spanish. Mother tongue is Danish.

I love people, I love chatting or just sitting in a cafe and do people watching.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love french movies, Mike Leigh, Tarantino and Tim Burton.

I've read most books by John Irving and I also met him in Amsterdam. Currently I'm reading Ildefonso Falcones ( I love books where I can learn some history).

Music: I listend to Bruce Springsteen since I was a kid, and I still do. But l love rock, jazz and classical.
I often listen to Carlos D'arli because its easy to dance to. But I also love D'Agostino, Rufino and others.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach math - used to teach happiness, mindfulness and tantra.

I love learning new stuff.

What I Can Share with Hosts
