About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, see, learn and experience the world, and enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

I can not host at the moment cause I don´t have space so please don`t ask about it, but I am up for coffee anytime I have time:)

I love to live and try to do it its fullest. I love trying out new stuff, traveling, meeting new people, dancing, being adventurous...in other words, having fun:) I LOVE music and dancing to it, and have a passion for vinyl ! Right now I live in Oslo and study, but only half a year ago I just came home from a year of traveling around the world which was amazing. In oslo I also work as a bartender, a barista and DJ.

PHILOSOPHY

If you think you can, you can. If you think you can´t, you´re right...
There´s no incurance policy on a life wasted...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have CSed around the whole world and seen that this world is filled with awesome folks. We live on a pretty awesome planet!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have met and stayed with tons of people where I have been on my world trip. I have also hosted some CS in my home town...whenever I am home. They have been a lot of fun and I really enjoyed every single CS I met!

Dancing the whole night through or just with my toes in the rain waiting for the bus
