Dear couchsurfer. Since we moved to Bergen a week ago, we have received 19 requests for couchsurfing in the summer. People who would love cultural exchange and long conversations. I truly understand, people need a place to stay in Bergen. But we live in total moving chaos and don't even have a couch, you can sleep on.

I will change this profile, when we are back on track.

We don't live at the centre of Bergen. We live in Fana, on Kismulvegen 236. It takes 20 min. walk to the bus. So about 1 hour to the city with public transport. When so said, it's a beautiful place in a green neighbourhood.

I am a mother of three lovely girls on 16, 20 and 23 years. My youngest daughter lives with me in Bergen in Norway. We don't smoke, and we try to eat healthy.

I like to read all kinds of literature, hike in the mountains, travel, shoot, sing opera and choir, draw, train fitness, have new experiences, meet new people, be with my children and friends. I am interested in politics and learning about other people's life styles, new cultures, talk to people from not only my own generation, but also elder and younger people and show my girls how wonderful the world is and how precious, helpful and nice most people are :-D

My youngest daughter is fond of horses, climbing, drums, baking and shooting. My elder daughter is very interested in Economy, Psychology, environment, entrepreneurship, and currently learning French and Chinese (Mandarin). She likes surfing and skiing. We are all fond of nature. We are a busy family, but whenever we have time, we would love to show you around. And if we are busy, we are still happy to help you with some accomodation in beautiful Finnmarken :-)

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I used to hitch hike, when I was younger. It gave a lot of great travel experiences, free rides and exciting meetings with new people.
As a mother of 3, hitch hiking is not so often an option. Most drivers don't pick up 4 hitch hikers :-) So we think, couch surfing could be another way to let the world into our home and meet new people.

I don't have much money, so couch surfing is also a way to be able to afford cheap travelling, while meeting new people and learning about other cultures. I am also interested in home exchange during holidays, so I take care of your house and pets and you take care of mine. But for this site, I care about meeting other people, exchanging cultures and make new friends.

If you go to Northern Norway and wants to "go local", you are welcome to stay with us for some days. We can almost always find a bed or mattress, or maybe a room, for you.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I love opera and jazz. My children hate it: They prefer celtic folk music, the Smiths, Rasmus Seebach, Michael Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Katy Perry.
I don't have tv, but I like netflix series like "Downtown abbey", "Sherlock" and "Suits". My kids love "Shadowhunter", "Sherlock", "Lord of the Rings", "Star Wars", "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Supernatural" among others.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Cracked the code in Harry Potter in 2005, started a big network for victims of psychopaths, struggled to affect the family law, survived quite a lot of exciting travel experiences and given birth to the best children in the world.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Telling stories and exchanging viewpoints - or just listening to you :-) It's exciting to meet people from other countries, backgrounds and cultures. Sometimes we will hear new viewpoints, which we can either approve or disapprove of - but it will hopefully always broaden our horizon.
I can make you some dinner, buy the breakfast or invite you out with the girls and me as a little thank you for your hospitality.

I expect, the kids and I are out during the day. So being together will be mainly in the evenings or mornings. Since we don't know each other, I don't want to be sitting your knees off. Besides, you probably live in a beautiful and exciting place, I want to see, since I have asked to stay with you :-)
