Big fan of learning in general, love exploring new places and trying different things.
I'm 23, a bit unsure of what I want to do in life, and wanting to discover more of the world.

Not the most specific bio, I know, I'll work on that later. You'll learn a lot more about me by reading the rest of my profile, though :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to get more into travelling, especially solo travel and CS sounds like a great place to do just that.
Being able to meet like-minded people all over the world, make new friends and learn tons of new things while on the road.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In high school, I made a 1-minute video in German about renewable energy that won me a trip for 2 to Vienna.
Me and the friend who went with me were 16 at the time, so the first time we went abroad without our parents, it was on a trip where the flights and the hotel were "free" :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
Norwegian, for the about 50 people in the world who want to learn that ;)
Playing the piano - I've been teaching children for almost 2 years

Learn:
I learned German in school for six years, but I'm always looking to improve the language and learn more.
I've also recently started learning Italian and would love to speak it at an advanced level some day.
Learning about other cultures, other languages, and all kinds of random facts is always fun as well.

Share:
Insights from travels, anything we might be passionate about, future goals, and of course exchange cultures and languages
