About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting my very self-conscious couch some acknowledgement!

ABOUT ME

I love life; I love learning from and about life, and I find the best way to do that is to meet people and try to learn their vision of their world.

I'm easy-going, not good at planning, still haven't really gotten settled in my apartment yet, but it's pretty cozy anyway. I love cooking baking, writing, running, coffee, sitting in the sun, red-vine, traveling, playing music, attending concerts, dancing. I'm not much of a "party-animal"; I need my sleep and I try to stay healthy, but I like to go out once in a while. Mainly places with live music..

I'm a 1. semester Anthropology student and I just moved to the city in august, after having worked a year in Legoland as Princess and pirate(so much fun!).. This means I have classes during the day, but mostly free at night and up for anything (maybe not wild and crazy drinking on weekdays, but there is always weekends for that).. I usually get up around 7AM and go to bed around 12(except when I'm behind with my readings..) My classes normally end at the latest 4PM and start somewhere around 8-12AM..

I enjoy meeting new people and philosophize about the meaning of life, the universe and everything, likely in the company of a bottle of red-vine or some beers. I spend my spare time expressing my soul through music, which sometimes means "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and stuff like that.

PHILOSOPHY

Obtain good karma.. always..

Teach, Learn, Share

Yeah.. I'm ready.. I want to learn every language in the world:)
I can teach you to say "I'm going to cut off your head" in 12 different languages.. (although I'm not REALLY a serial killer! just a walking pirate dictionary)
I can teach you to juggle, to swear in Danish and to play Danish children songs on guitar/piano..

I want to learn to speak Netherlandish, to surf(for real!) and to make pirouettes on ice-skates. I want to speak fluently Swedish and German, and make a Arnold accent.
