About Me

I'm a young man in the mid twenties, from Denmark, more specific, the island of Bornholm. Here I study to become a pedagogue, wich is the science of teaching. I live a religious life as a christian protestant and spend a lot of my time in the childrens ministry. I also spend some of my sparetime being involved in communal politics.
I love to read, cook and going on adventures. ( I even watch a movie from time to time)
I would love if my adventures went to a new place or country. To qoute the great writer H.C. Andersen. "To travel, is to live!", every step out of my front door is a travel in my philosophy.
But of all the things I love to do, to meet new people, is a gift of life!

Oh yeah, and I'm a 2.01 m. happy giant! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Moving out of my comfort zone, to where I want to be!

I wanna meet people where they are, and in turn, share my life with them.

I live at a dorm in my little squared room, with a shared bath/toilet and kitchen, with four other people. But I have plenty of space for some madrasses. So if you don't mind sleeping in the same room, I would love to host you!

I would also love to show the beauty that is, the island of Bornholm to you, if you decide to come. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I used to live close to Copenhagen up until I was 19 years, and while all my friends was moving to the main city, I moved to a far away "more remote" Island called Bornholm, been living there for 6 years now. It changed my life for the better! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I think, the seven things I love the most, are:

History, culture, religion, politics, food, building relations and carring for people (the essence of my profession) !

While I love and have some knowledge about other stuff, such as football, films, books, computers, geography (especially flags), and many other things, these seven listet above, I can probaly teach and share more about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The best I try to be! :)

I am a easy going clean (non-smoker) guy, never expecting much, a place to lay and a roof over my head and I'm happy! :D

I will try to bring the Danish "Hygge".
