CURRENT MISSION

Grow.

ABOUT ME

The most important furniture in my apartment is my dining table - I love food and gathering people around a table. I grew up on a farm and feel closely connected to nature both on land and under the sea. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My family has always had an open door, and even though I did not grow up with couchsurfing specifically, I grew up with a lot of people coming to our home (through friends and family, or just because we met them while they where traveling) staying for a while, just spending time at my family farm.

I have also hosted in my own house when I lived in Lillehammer and now also in Bergen. The summer of 2015 I wnt to Italy to experience the surfers side of the story and am now ever more inspired to continue my CS journey!

Interests

I love being in nature(but I am not a very fit and sporty person, more of a sit by the sea and breathe fresh air and find different types of flowers and edibles person). Food is so amazing, and especially when shared. It intrigues me the way different societies work. I love it when art blows me away. I am drawn to the quirky character of the Lindy hop dance. Crafting things with my hands gives me a kind of satisfaction that is hard to describe.

Music, Movies, and Books

I miss the calm days of my childhood when I was Iost in a book, and often I can find it again when traveling! I am trying to read some classics and history in between the battles, but I always Iove a good story. My music interest spans from classical to Tom Waits and I enjoy traditional music from every county I have ever heard traditional music from. I watch far more TV-series than movies, but love it when someone takes me to a movie they know I will like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am a bit careful about hunting the big amazing things, because the most wonderful experiences in my life often is not the typical wow-moments. I work to have the small amazing things happening in my front yard. Often the greatest thing is getting the right people together at the right time to make the evenings energy magic.

Teach, Learn, Share

I make my own jam, chutney and ginger ale and I sing. And I am excited to learn anything you would like to share with me!

Depending on the timing, I can share anything from just a sofa, kitchen and bathroom to dinner in the backyard and trips in the city(or around the farm if you come visit my childhood home).
