About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a job that will fund my travels

ABOUT ME

I'm 19, Danish and on my gap-year.

I've travelled a lot, and love staying in people's homes, as it gives a unique perspective on a new culture!

PHILOSOPHY

It's not about the years in your life, but the life in your years - so make the most of your time here!

Music, Movies, and Books

Shantaram is probably the best book I've read so far.

My music style is very varied - i like everything from Brazilian funk and samba to electronic or pop. At the moment I'm pretty fond of the 1975 and the roots.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was traveling India as an exchange student we attended a pooja (Hindu-ceremony) at the banks of the Ganges-river in Haridwar, Northindia. I'm not religious, but in that moment I was blown away! Magical :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a certified power-yoga teacher and fluent in Danish, English and French, which I'll happily share.

Other than that, I'm always good for a great conversation.
