About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After many years of travelling, I still haven't learned how to organize a backpack. Will I ever learn? Also I need to find a permanant apartment in Toronto.

ABOUT ME

I'm an easygoing and social person who loves seeing new places and meet new people. I have backpacked in South America, been on interrail in Europe, been on exhange in New Orleans (+travelled a bit in the south) and now I'm going on exchange in Toronto.

FAQ's

- I had a period where the only thing I could eat when I was hungover was herring in curry (I don't think you find that outside Denmark, though)
- I can not make a toast without crying like a baby
- I almost had a short-lived modelling career at Roskilde Festival 2015, but I was too inapproprate for Tuborg beer
- I HATE pilates, it's the worst form of excercise I have ever tried
- When I was a kid I was really into nordic mythology (Thor, Odin - those guys)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I haven't been using CS that much, as I often have travelled with others and it's harder to accomodate several people/I have visited friends who lives in other countries. Also, I'm not very good at planning my trips far ahead. A close friend of mine has been very active on CS, both as a host and as a guest, so I have a very positive view on the idea.
