About Me

I am re-creating myself by traveling, making new friends and having new experiences. Every day i'm changing but a few things make me who i am today. I am super easy going and can get along well with most people. I love the color blue and the poetry book about blue which is called Bluets. I am a peace maker, animal lover and quite a calm being. I love long talks about the depths of our conditioning and patterns and souls and philosophy and psychology. I also love living with many people as i was brought up in a big family with many siblings.

I have been traveling on and off these past few years. Last year i was 3 months in Thailand and a month in Scandinavia. This year i've been to Germany for 7 weeks and Faroe Islands for 7 weeks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had a couchsurfin account for a couple of years without being active. I want to start using it more. My friend hosts a lot of people in Iceland and i got to know some amazing couch surfers through her. I´ve been hosted a few times through my friends couchsurfing page and it was a really good experience:) I think it´s a great way to get to know all kinds of cool people.

Interests

I studied classical piano for 10 years. I like to sing, just started playing the guitar a bit. I dance, love to travel as well. And watching a good movie is always nice as well :)
