ABOUT ME

I grew up - and still lives - in Copenhagen, where I study history and spend a lot of time with my friends and family.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know if it is a philosophy, but i have thought a lot about how I hope that work will always just be one part of my life and never my hole identity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a good way to experince new places in another way that just the "guide book way" and learn about different cultures. Besides that it you can meet a lot of great people and have new friends in different places :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2012 I travelled in the Balkans with two friends and we used couchsurfing a lot. It was such a good experience; we meet so many nice and welcoming people - maybe that is what kickstarted my Balkan-obsession :) Since then I have travelled a lot in the Balkans and stayed with couchsurfers and it has always been a pleasant experience and an interesting way to travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am damaged by my parents and therefore like what they were listening to in the 60's and 70's. Besides that I am terrible at finding new music myself, but fortunately I have friends who can act as music pushers.

I will argue that Godfather is one of the best movies ever made (and generally I have a thing for movies about the mafia).

When I was a kid my parents used to say that I would have read all the books in the library before I turned 18 - unfortunately I also got busy with other things but I still enjoy reading. Some of the books that made the biggest impression on me is 'If this is a man' (Primo Levi), 'Maus' (graphic novel by Art Spiegelman), 'All the lights' (Clemens Meyer), 'Americanah' (Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Generally travelling in the Balkans have been a really big experience for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to swear in danish (or maybe just to order beer).
