My name is Kristian. I live together with my wife Susanne and our boys born in 2005 and 2011.

I work as IT infrastructure specialist. My work is very technical so at home I prefer cooking, taking care of the garden and play with our kids.

Susanne is from Germany and plays the Violin. She play in the Norwegian Opera House. The new Oslo Opera House is fantastic and is worth a visit. Susanne also plays in The Norwegian Baroque Orchestra where they play on historical instruments. Susanne loves making her music and I love listen to it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have only good experience both hosting and surfing.

Interests

A great interest for ecological principle. We are the founder of BevarMegVel eco hamlet at Nesodden, a five family community sharing a permaculture vegetable and fruit garden.

We go ski in the winter time and sea kayak in the summer time (and sometime also in the winter). At home we love to work in the garden and cooking good meals.

My interest for ecological food and environmental care is great. I always struggle to find a better way of living and I find the CS project can be very good in this way.
