About Me

Hello :)

Im 27 years old, currently working as a consultant within leadership development at Deloitte in Oslo.

I see myself as a very curious person, and I love to travel. I have been to places like Palestine, China, and Indonesia. When I travel, I do it to meet people and to learn.

I have been studying anthropology, economics, and other subjects during my 5 years as a student. I have also been volunteering a lot, and ISFiT (www.isfit.org) has been a big part of my student life.

Other then that I am outgoing, wanting to find out what people care about, and looking for the out-of-the-normal travel experience. Eats to much if I get the chance, likes a good beer, and can be quite curious about most things in life.

PHILOSOPHY:

->Be open for new things, think through your own views when they get challenged.

->People usually say smart stuff if you take your time to listen carefully.

Trying not to plan to far ahead, as I know I will change my mind anyway =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people. I am finding it really easy to connect with people using CS, and I think it is a awesome way to se different ways of life.

Interests

Likes to stay active, and that can involve running, going to the gym, martial arts, or a good trek! Likes to be active in student communities, and voluntary work where i can find it, wherever i can get the insight into something i find interesting.
