About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Understanding the mind

ABOUT ME

I am an enthusiastic, sporty and friendly 21 year old norwegian girl that love traveling and meeting new people. I am an CS because I have used it myself on my travels, and think it is a great way to get to know both the country and the people.(And it's not as expensive as a hotel)

I am very active, so if I have some time off work, I can show you my city, take you out.

PHILOSOPHY

Push your limits, explore, fuck up, learn from it and develop youself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I went to Maxico City and stayed with a nice local girl named Ill Se for three days. That was one of the hilights of the 4 month I was traveling, so I would like go give other travelers the same experience. My family is also very welcoming!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have used couchsurfing on my travels before, and all in all was that an amazing experience.

This is a movie from my last CS trip in NYC and Toronto. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAzSXw-flwk
