CURRENT MISSION

I like to think Im in the process of accepting and finding my place and direction in the world. Right now that means travelling

ABOUT ME

I'm Katla, I've never lived in the same place very long.. As I kid I was born in Reykjavik Iceland, we moved to Paris when I was 4 and after that I lived in Holland... After Highschool I went to NYC for a year.

I really love travelling, while travelling I tend to write a lot more which makes me quite happy. I love a balance between city life and outdoors adventures.
While travelling i like to experience a local feel, the food the people the music!

PHILOSOPHY

For me life is about movement, both of the body and mind. Ive started Yoga and their the goal is to keep the two connected. I think that might a good way of describing my philosophy, i want to travel and meet people but i would like myself to stay connected, to maintain my core. To other people I always say, try always, let go of fear but of course be careful, you never know where it might take you, leaving your comfort zone is valuable and exciting

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
