About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel through USA to experience the culture, people, cool places and especially the music

ABOUT ME

I'm 21 years old, from Denmark and I'm a nice friendly guy, or at least I try to be.
I'm music interested, and I even play several different instruments, including my primary passion the guitar.
I'm a little bit of country and a little bit of rock 'n roll, but my all time favorite music genre is american folk music.
I was raised in a small Scandinavian city in the country of Denmark, and I've been working at child care being part of a team of 20 professionals providing care to over 200 children (ages 5 through 10) for the past 2 years. This enabled me to save up enough money to travel in the states for the next 2 months.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not really religious, per se. But i do believe that you have a responsibility as a human being to respect and care for any kinds of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a newbie who got lucky by getting a great expert host and it's worked out greatly. My friend and fellow couchsurfer, Magnus Meiling, made the initial contact and now I'm making my own profile.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As mentioned earlier I'm kind of a newbie. Currently I'm staying at my first host Dano Mason here in New Jersey.

Interests

I've already mentioned my passion of music, but as so many musicians before me I enjoy a beer (or two(or three)) once in a while. I enjoy to read and have currently set the goal to read the Grapes of Wrath during my stay in America.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A couple of years ago I hitchhiked with a couple of friends, from Denmark to Amsterdam. It was a great trip with a lot of surprises and I have quite a few fond memories from the trip.
