Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm going to save the world when I grow old
ABOUT ME
I´ve used CS quite a bit in the past and due to some upcoming trips, I´d like to get back in here. I´ve previously moved around, spending some years in Norway, Russia, Albania, and the UK. I recently moved back to Oslo as I finished my msc in aviation in London and started to work for an airline here.
I´m pretty much a living cliché of the Couchsurfing-community and tick most boxes for the typical user; no meat-eater, gay, open-minded and really into languages. Apart from that, if you´re keen to strike up a conversation about aeroplanes, I´d be a great conversation-partner.
PHILOSOPHY
Everything is connected throughout time and space.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven´t been active here for almost a year, but if you write a nice request and I have the time to host you, I will do everything to make sure that you will have a nice time here.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used CS in 2012 when travelling through Europe. Couchsurfed in, for instance, Budapest, Berlin and Vienna. I have met and made a lot of friends all over the world thanks to CS, and I'm still in touch with some of them. I've hosted a few times too.
Interests
I love languages since they illuminate other perpectives of the world . I've studied swedish, english, norwegian, spanish, russian, latin, french and german.
I'm also interested in architecture, city planning, design and infrastructure. Otherwise I love the nature,biking and literature (especially russian)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I wake up in the morning and realize the sun is shining!
Teach, Learn, Share
I like food. I like eating it. Watching it. Cooking it. I'd like to try and learn how to cook food from every place I visit. And of course I'll be able to show typical swedish and russian food! As mentioned earlier I'm a vegetarian.
As written before I'm also interested in languages and city planning. Therefore I love visiting architecture museums and exhibitions and urban places while travelling (and a certain guilty pleasure to metro systems, check out my instagram-account: http://instagram.com/metro2013)
