I'm easy going and laid back. I love meeting new people, and learning local swear words :) I've been told on several occasions that I'm somewhat smart and fun, and that I bust some sick dancemoves. I think I'm an overall pretty nice person.

I'm a makeup artist and prop maker, but mostly I just put wigs on people and travel as much as possible.

It takes a good long while for me to get homesick, but when I do, it's for my mom's house. My mom's place is a tiny old house in the countryside, surrounded by fields, lakes and forrest. These days, when I'm home, I stay either here or in my van.

My favorite pass-time is drawing. Check out my Instagram if you like: www.instagram.com/signedagmar

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couse strangers are sweet, fun and awesome! I've had some of my very best travel experiences with hosts and visitors from all over the world.

Interests

Traveling, minimalistic and simplistic living. Drawing, reading, learning new languages and survival skills. Good, relaxed company. Natural history. Astronomy. Philosophy. Movies. Cooking. Craftmanship of all kinds. I like learning new stuff, such as riding a skateboard or playing the harmonic.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: radio sing-along stuff. Good funky dancy stuff. Favorite song is "I shall be released" with Nina Simone.
Movies: Blood, gore and horror. Beautiful documentaries. The occasional cheesy rom-com. Favorite movie is "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind"
Books: mostly non-fiction and inspirational books for work. Whatever interesting paperback people will trade while traveling. Last book I read was "Alive" about the rugby team that plane crashed in the Andes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ate a deep fried snickers bar at a fair once. At that particular time, it felt very amazing.

Traveling alone. Solitude can be very educational.

Teach, Learn, Share

I wanna learn stuff! All kinds of stuff. Tell me your jokes and recipes and travel tales.

Good passing-times are duolingo, www.waitbutwhy.com and www.howstuffworks.com.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you about wig making, mold making, how to pack a small suitcase, and the art of explorative cooking.
