Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Since it's not very cheap to stay in hotels or hostels in Denmark, this couch opportunity is great.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Haven't had one myself. Have only heard other people's good experiences with it.
Interests
Dancing, especially salsa and ballroom. Training, volunteering in Red cross youth.
Travelling, it's almost as good as dancing, really close;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
This is something about being honest and believing in people.. One night I came to Michigan. My first time in the US. Hadn't had a sleep for three days cos of delayed flights. The person who had promised me to pick me up from the airport wasn't there, and i was in a desparate need of getting to Jackson. It was snowing, it was midnight... long story becomes short: i rented a car to go to Jackson by myself not knowing the direction. Ends up in the middle of nothing. A car comes driving in my direction far away, so I stop my car in the middle of the road to make sure they couldn't pass by me without stopping. Fortunately this elderly couple invites me to their house. I had had to sleep in the car still not knowing my way to Jackson.
Just a great example of showing trust in other people.
Teach, Learn, Share
The word prejudice emerged from latin 'prejudicium', meaning pre jugding. When we look at it in a view concerning people, it happens, that we tend to jugde on the basis of no or very little knowledge. It follows precisely the composition and meaning of the word prejudice. We arbitrate unconsciously before gathering correct knowlegde. Subsequently we create an opinion or attitude towards things we often actually don't know much about. For instance, a conception of other people and fear or distrust of what one doesn't know about.
