ABOUT ME

Moved to Denmark to follow love and now I work as a teacher at an international school. I love to get out and explore new places, meet different people and trying to immerse myself in different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

You write your own story. Treat others how you would like to be treated, even if they don't do the same back.

Teach, Learn, Share

If possible, try to set the mood early for a surfing or hosting experience. You may not want first impressions to play a big part, but they often can.
