Norwegian, currently taking a bachelor in International Studies in The Hague, The Netherlands.

I love to travel, and I am always open to meet new people with a different background than myself. Would it be small conversations over a coffee, an after party at the beach with a guitar, or a coincidental meeting where no one speaks the same language, but still understand each other, it is the spark and inspiration in these meetings that drives me.

Personally, I am have a mix of Norwegian humbleness and openness from meeting different people and cultures. I always seek to understand the ones I meet, and I believe listening is the best tool for good communication.

I also speak good French and a tiny bit of Arabic, as I studied both at university.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my big passion in life (besides traveling ofc). At the moment I listen to: Tom Misch, Alfa Mist, Jordan Rakei, Charlotte Day Wilson, Jorja Smith and Loyle Carner. But I also have a ear for jazz, blues and rock. If you love rock/metal, let me know, and I’ll give you my Nordic favorites.

Books. I try to read more. I’m currently reading 100 years of solitude, which is absolutely brilliant. Always in for tips tho!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked voluntarily for Project Elea, a local NGO in Athens, Greece. One month that changed my life. Rather than helping others based on privilege, everyone worked together to make the community better.

Countries I’ve Lived In
