Hii! I’m Leon (24), a Norwegian native. In addition I am also a musician, poet, and a student pursuing Finance and International Management degrees at NHH Norwegian School of Economics, but not really feeling very financy myself. Now, as I’m on my last year of my double degree, I really want to connect with people all over the world. Maybe I’ll see myself moving to a strange place to strange people I am yet to meet.

I love movies, reading, bouldering, learning languages, travelling, history, and much more!!
With my bands, I’ve been touring all of the Nordic countries, as well as Estonia and Germany, and looove to meet fellow music/art lovers.

Currently in Bergen (NOR). Moving in with my partner in Dresden for the first two months of 2025. Then, doing an exchange semester in Tokyo (at Keio Uni) between Match and August 2025.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Share experiences from people all over the world and learn new things and skills!
I used to only do this when I was playing with my bands, but now... I wanna do it all outside the music touring sphere as well, so I really have time to connect with people.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of music!! I’m part of a indie rock band atm, but I have also participated in prog metal, pop, techno, and americana projects. I adore all sorts of music.

I especially love arthaus movies, but all movies in general are interesting to me. I often attend screenings at the Bergen Film Club when I’m at home.

Currently reading László Krasznahorkai’s latest book, Herscht 07769. A fan of surreal themes. I always carry a poem collection with me as well. These days its Octavio Paz and Olav H. Hauge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Did not one, but TWO warmup gigs for AURORA.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can learn you some music skills and Norwegian!
As I write a lot of poetry and prose, I am really keen on sharing writing experiences and tricks from others.
We could do collaborative poetry writing for example!

I would also be keen on a jam session, if you happen to be a musician. I’m always bringing my sampler and mouth harp when I’m travelling. At home I have several instruments and always up for playing if you’re in town.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Eternal gratitude and kindness. I can help u out with whatever<3!
