ABOUT ME

I like to travel and meet new people. One of the best times I had travelling so far was actually my journey to Russia, Moscow that went further to Baku, Azerbaijan - here I met wonderful Kelly & Jacqui from the US & Australia and the journey ended in Tbilisi, Georgia. Before that I was living in Perth, Australia for 1 year studding (2005), and a few years after that I lived for 1 year in Berlin (2010-2011) - both places I got friends for life, that really changed me. I come from Arendal, Norway and altogether I have lived in Oslo for 7 years - in between taking the time out from everything with travelings - wondering what’s coming next :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't look back in anger"

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

兴趣

I like to laugh, talk, dance, used to read a lot - now I don't know where time flies, serious conversations, cycling, camping, playing around, being impulsive, singing (karaoke), drinking bear and (ginger ale!) and care about the planet by working for reuse.

The Novels in me

I found love in war torned russia x)
And brotherhood in ”Of Mice and Men”
I discovered India in Rushdies ”Midnights Children”
And the rest of the world within them.

I´ve laught in ”Popular Music from Vittula”
And cryed in Khaled Hosseinis ”The Kite Runner”
I wanted to make a difference with ”The Angel of Grozny”
And within thees feeIings, thrive I, didnt lost me

”The Alchemist” made me wanna follow my dreams.
And Kafkas ”The Trial” showed me the bewilderings of the world.
I learned about The Biafra sufferings in ”Half of a Yellow Sun”
And how come is it, that I have still more to come?

”The History of Love”xx) is sometimes complicated
And passion and feelings can derive from cooking! xxx)
I´ve been told the insanity of a mans ”Hunger” xxxx)
And al of this so that I myself will not blunder

Now I want to read about ”The Master and the Margarita”
And perhaps of Romeo and Juliet too?
And all I know is that these books guide me
To some odd place, that I at this point, did not knew.
