About Me

Hello! Im 25 year old swede currently situated in Oslo. Ive been living here since 2014, with the goal of traveling more. So far ive managed two months in Asia and two months in Africa, and for this summer ive decided to go interrailing through Europe. Starting in Skopje moving west, once again for two months, ending in eiher Berlin or Amsterdam.
So why do i travel? Well, so far in my days ive managed to study a bit of everything, ranging from IT to law and culture. I sort of fell in love with culture, especially since i grew up in a very small, narrow-minded enclosed village and never got to see anything but thtos untill i left. i believe its my main reason for traveling, right beside the experience of being out of my comfort zone. I guess you could say i like to learn new things and broaden my view of the world and its functions.
I hope this could provide at least a somewhat fair image of me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Priorly ive been spending my nights in hostels or a tent, but since this can be quite lonely and boring at times im finally doing couchsurfing! I hope to meet loads of new people and learn more about my european neighbours. It also seems to be the most suitable option for getting into the local practices and ideas.
In the future i hope to host people myself, and help others see more of the world.

Interests

Even though im a horrible singer and cant play any instrument, i am however a passionate lover pf music. it has influenced my way of life, and i can backtrace tons of my opinions to the music i heard growing up.
I love to read, preferrably some kind of scientific literature. For example, i love Richard Dawkins books: interesting, witty and packed with knowledge!
Good food is another thing i find both important and fun, and i put a lot of effort into cooking tasty, healthy food.
Otherwise im like most people, i enjoy good company, nature, diving etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Im not really into movies, it bores my quite a lot. Same with tv and stuff, theres not many series ive enjoyed watching. Amongst the few youve got Game of thrones, breaking bad and how i met your mother.
Music on the oter hand, you could basicly include all of the old rock - lynyrd skynyrd, ac/dc, rolling stones, motley crue, guns n roses, led zeppelin, pink floyd, pantera, metallica, iron maiden... And im constantly on the look out for new music of course!
The selfish gene was an amazing by richard dawkins, and i enjoy reading similar type of books. However, Fear and loathing in las vegas is one of thhr best books ever, just JRR tolkiens books about middle earth.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worlds highest commercial bridge bungy-jump - 216 meters. Was scary, but fun!
