About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make the world a better place & be happy.

ABOUT ME

I am a happy person. Thinking much about poor people, and how to change the world into a better place.

I used to work as a volunteer in a local tv-station and on a homepage working with news.

I used participate in making a local non-profit Café in my neighbourhood and know how to make a café latte :-)

Now i use most of my time teaching. My main subjects are: danish, social science & history.

Love jazz, beat, classical, electronic and a lot more music, as long as it is "good".

PHILOSOPHY

A bit nihilist, though i can't help trying to make the world a better place everyday.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Beeing alive. Climbing and motorcycling the Himalayas. Beeing a schoolteacher. Interacting with the people that surrounds me. And now also bicycle touring (it is the best!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a schoolteacher and working with History, Social science and Danish language and litterature. I am also quite good with a computer. And i love practicing my english skills.

I like to cook as well, and i am definitely not done with learning in that field.

Also, i can help with fixing your bicycle.
