Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To dream the dreams that never have been dreamt before.
ABOUT ME
Hey! I'm not really good at this, so if you need to know more about me, after reading this, let me know!
I am Norwegian, but I've lived in Texas, and therefore consider myself as partly Texan. I love to travel, listen to music, read books, watch movies, GO TO MUSIC FESTIVALS and a bunch of other things!
I am a student at LIU Post, and my major is Political Science, but that doesn't mean that I'm boring! My dream is to SOMEDAY have law-degree, hopefully in maritime law, or technology law.. If one could put it like that. I'm still foreign, and haven't got this whole language under control!
I'm easy to get to know, I'm a bit stubborn, but that's just.. cute, right? haha.
I used to be very athletic, until I started college! haha. I used to swim, do tennis and play handball (the European kind)ever since I was about 9yrs old. I'm planning on getting back on track soon! Nawt!
Like you've probably seen already, is that I can't host anyone at the moment, and that is because I don't have any extra room, living with four other girls! But who knows? You're free to check if we have room available, if not, maybe we can meet up!
Anyways, please, ask if there's anything at all, that you want to know! It will be better for me to let you know in that way, and then update my profile because of you;)
I'd love to hear from you!
PHILOSOPHY
Things that have happened is in the past, don't overthink whatever has happened, live for the present and for the future!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now I can't host (am about to move from a college dorm to a house with four other girls), and probably will not surf too much at the moment, but I'd LOVE to keep any surfers in Norway with company, or in the New York City area!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I did host a couple of cute students from the US my first week on here, I'm really glad they were so nice and cool as they were, gave me an excellent first-impression of CS! I have surfed twice, unfortunately I was very sick when I was with my awesome first hostesses! The second hostfamily I surfed at, was so generous to let us stay with them during the Inauguration 2013! Can't wait to experience more, and get new friends!
Interests
Music, movies, TRAVELING, the U.S, languages, fashion, art, meeting new people, and hanging out with the "old" ones!
I'm the type of person that feels empty if there's no music. It's like fuel for life! I like watching movies, about real things, or made up stuff, it's all good! I never have thought about what it'd be like to settle down, all I can seem to think of, is if I'll have enough of time to see the whole World.
I've had a little experience in french and spanish, but can in no way speak it fluently. I therefore wish to learn those languages, including japanese or/and mandarin!
