About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn 50 ene oldtime/bluegrass tunes and songs during the next year

ABOUT ME

To put myself in a box in a small description is always hard.. I think a lot of my personality lies in my very positive energi og my ability to enjoy and use my senses to get the most experiences out of things as possible.

I really think life is good, at i love to share it in cosy atmospheres with my dear friends or family, and especially if it involves music - listening intensely to it or playing it or singing it.. I play the fiddle. Actually the fiddle is almost a part of my body - after many years of a great fascination of what music can do to people, to the mind. I play folk music in many genres - because music from the roots is music that you can actually feel because of its pureness and often simpleness.

I live i Copenhagen and love it - i makes me smile. But im from the countryside, and that a big part of me as well. With teh danger to be very cheesy now, i would say - I really do love the natur (surpise!) - because it smells good, and is the only place where its possible to really relax. Besides music, my other big passion is climbing. Its a very meditative sport close to the natur and the body. It has given me great experiences and have even more to come..

Whats else to say to the box? - I love strong coffee and is a marbelous dancer at parties!

PHILOSOPHY

"A smile is the shortest way between people.."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed in Paris and several places in Spain, in the US, in Czech Republic and Rumania. All of thwm very good experiences i will never forget. I want other people 2 have the same great experiences in Denmark - Copenhagen is a wonderful city - and i want to show it to travellers... Unfortuneately i dont have room for overnigters as i live in 12 sqm with a lot of forniture, and very little space on the floor. When i get more spce i will definately host as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

On my interrail trip 2006 with 2 friends. We surfed in Paris, Barcelona and Sevilla. It was the best. Last summer i went on an amazing roadtrip in the US where we have surfed in Toledo, Chicago and Nashville, New Orleans and Austin. Now im one a three months europe trip where i have surfed czech republic and rumania and hopefully Greece, Italy and France.

Interests

To dance polska (swedish dance), to play the fiddle and the ukulele, to play darbouka or just play on my labs, to sing harmony, to meet new people and hear who they are and what their passions is, to see new parts of the world, to be inspired, to ride a bike, to talk, to tell stories, to see the sun go down or up, the eat cake...
