CURRENT MISSION

my bench project! I am working on creating fairytale benches that are to be put up in public spaces in Copenhagen

ABOUT ME

Hmmmm.. all about me - that's kind of a big question...

But I will give it a try:
I work as a leader of a so-called "culture house" for children. That means that I make and provide different kinds of art- and culture projects for children.
At the moment I am totally occupied by making fairytale benches, which are to be put up in the public spaces in Copenhagen; benches which will tell stories, fairytales and thougts made and told by children and youngsters.

I guess this project tells a lot about me:
I'm very interested in stories, storytelling, art in public space, site specific art, using art as a democratic tool, and...play and playfulnes. I guess that is wht I also like combining art and children. Children are often much better at playing than grown-ups!

PHILOSOPHY

When we stop playing
We start dying

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wiil host people over the summer - and will go to London at a certain time in the summer, where I hope to meet someone who will host me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am quite new in this community.
At the moment I am very busy, and don't check my mail every day.
But my summer will be a bit calmer - and hope to host a few surfers over the summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

But if I was to pick the most beautiful spot in the world (which I've seen), then it must be Buerdalen (a valley/fiord in Norway) or one of Norways many other amazing fiords.
