About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Improvisation...what goes around comes around

ABOUT ME

I like to see the positive things in life, and I enjoy laughing and smiling!! I am a very efficient person, and my life can go very fast sometimes, I am very spontanous and I am always up for travelling. My frineds threaten that they will make a webpage called: www.whereismette.com ;) I am a freelance dancer, and like to be active and live a healthy life. I feel best in a dynamic environment, but I also like spending time relaxing, drinking tea and thinking about life!!

PHILOSOPHY

Do whatever makes you happy!!
Beginners luck is a very good thing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a very openminded and open hearted girl, who love intercultural meeting and communication, which is also why I feel so "home" when particapating in CS meetings, hosting or I surf... I host from time to time when my living situation allows me too. Right now I am doing a comeback into Couchsurfing, since I have been a bit passive the last year. I particapate in Meetings and also organize local gaterings in the towns I have been living. In general I Share and Care when it comes to CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have always had great experiences in CS, by hosting or surfing. I like to live the local life wherever I travel, and also to welcome people to my life, to tell them my best tips about the town and discuss culture. Why do danish people sing and dance around a christmas tree on christmas eve? I cannot even answer that, but I know its worth trying.. I appreciate when I also get these experiences abroad.
