I am a Norwegian girl currently living in Berlin where I do my PhD in physics. I love to travel, meet new people and explore new places (as everyone else involved in CS, I guess...), so I'm very happy to be able to live abroad and do awesome science at the same time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been couchsurfing in Norway, Germany, Taiwan and Vietnam, and only had positive experiences. When I moved to Berlin and didn't know anyone I attended many events and got to know the city and people through that. The couchsurfing-community in Johannesburg also gave me an awesome time while I lived there.

Outdoor-acitivites as skiing, climbing and hiking. Music, movies, science.

Movies/ Directors: Black Cat,White Cat. Films by Jim Jarmusch, such as Coffee & Cigarettes. Quentin Tarantino, Lars von Trier.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Between august 2009 and may 2010 I spent a lot of time outdoors, almost 60 days allthogether. It's really something special to see the norternlights when you´re far away from civilization and there's no other light to disturb.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm generally interested in learning as much as possible, so bring it on.
I can show you Berlin, and you can ask me about climbing, skiing, glaciers, and of course science topics. I am also interested in languages, so any kind of exchange is welcome.
