Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live in Denmark so I can finally offer a couch
ABOUT ME
I really want to be a Viking, so then I came to Denmark. Apparently they had some great holidays about 1000 years ago in the country I was born in, so now I'm doing the same thing here. Well, not exactly the same thing.
PHILOSOPHY
42, to see the beauty in life in order to not be a slave, slightly hungry right now, maybe thinking about lunch.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I pretend to participate, but then I get bored of spending hours at a screen. People say I have a good heart though, and I guess thats all that really matters. How much do I have to fill in this box again?
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
surfed a few times around the place, but I really would like to properly experience how this is done before i get into hosting people.
Interests
bare feet, cooking in strangers kitchens, the way flying insects bang into windows, dark bread with seeds in it, australian animals, incredible cliches, squid, awful awful jazz, bicycling in the UK, some peoples bizarre attitudes, fresh limes, nothing to do with politics, inventing reasons to mess around, lying on soft materials under stars, drunkenly kissing popular people
