About Me

Happy. Open-minded. Humoristic. Social. Friendly. Respectful :-)

Enjoy every moment of life – life is short. Be good to others. Be positive. Take good care of Earth (that includes animals).

I am excited to finally be able to open my home to couchsurfers, because I have recently moved to an apartment! All prior years of my couchsurfing experience I have lived in a dorm and not been able to host. So NOW is the time :)

Some bullets about me and interests:

- I am a humoristic joke-maker, and also a grounded person who is very interested in mindfulness and movement. I meditate daily, and try do more yoga. I think humans sit too much in chairs (myself included!) and I try to use my body as much as possible #naturalmovement

- I love being in nature. It is my favorite way of relaxing and reflecting. I particular love forests, and often use the big park close to my home. I love outdoor activities, hiking, camping, making campfire

- I have played a looot of guitar, but have not been active in recent years. However, I am planning to change this soon ;) If you like guitar you can check this vid of me playing: https://youtu.be/yUzDtpqZ2C4
And also check out my band Kaskelot (also on Spotify)a: https://youtu.be/srXXYdrvRhY

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am gonna cheat and name a few:
Couchsurfing (of course!) in so many countries and meeting awesome people. I am addicted!
Hitchhiking the circumference of Taiwan.
Spent 6 (great!) months in East Asia.
