About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Discover values that unites people around the world regardless of location, culture, religion, etc.

As a dreamer and entrepreneur at heart, my best friend and I founded a Startup called Match My Thesis (Google it), where we help students in Denmark to find a company to write their Masters' Thesis with. After 3 years of startup life and many learnings on the way I am now on a new adventure to discover myself as a traveler and a citizen of a world before coming back to work in August.

In my previous episodes of life I was training karate for 12 years and participating in international competitions as well as coaching small 4-9 year old kids - thus, a love for sports and education. On a the other hand, I started my first business venture when I was at school where i learned how to fix motorcycles and saved money for my further education abroad at Copenhagen Business School - Thus, love for all sorts of technical stuff and entrepreneurship. On yet another side of a spectrum, I always had a knack for a creative self-expression and adventure either through dancing, designing or what-ever it might be - thus... this journey (?)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Collection of memories is a hobby of mine and I believe that Couchsurfing is definitely the place to create: good stories, new friendships and open up your mind for different life perspectives.
