Live life to its fullest potential.

ABOUT ME

I'm Julia! I recently moved from Seattle to Oslo with my Icelandic boyfriend, Bjarni! We enjoy traveling, meeting new people and hosting guests.

I believe life is all about the experiences you have, and I love trying new things everyday. Music is my passion. Eating vegan, tasting wine, dancing, being creative, traveling, and trying new cafe's are my hobbies! I love meeting new people and plan to travel the world every chance I can!

Next travel destinations:

PHILOSOPHY

If you eat animals, your body is their graveyard.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My favorite couchsurfing experiences are when I host someone, we become friends and I get to travel to visit them where ever they live!

-----Requesting Info-----

I love hosting, but what I've learned over the years is that it does cost me to host you. Bedding, shower, washing machine...
So I appreciate it when guests bring gifts(wine) and cook a meal to share during their stay. *Give according to how many you are* 😋

I love to try new wines from your home regions! My favorite wines are fruity reds and sweet whites, and all time #1 is Moscato!

I also love yoga! I go to a gym regularly and you're welcome to join me for a class or workout, the guest pass costs 175kr. Or if you can teach yoga I'd love to practice with you.

I usually have time to go and explore together. Please use other sources for recommendations on what to see as I am brand new to Oslo myself. I am learning the nice spots around the city along with you.

I do not use WhatsApp, but I do have Facebook Messenger so contact me there if you like.
