Overview
About Me
I'm a friendly, young man who lives in the next biggest city in Denmark, Aarhus! There i have my family, my friends and my bands - i use most of my time playing and practicing on the saxophone, because it is the sexiest instrument on the planet. Noo... but i take it pretty seriously, and hopefully i can play for the rest of my life, that's the dream :) I like to hang out and talk to people - having interesting conversations or simply having fun, it's all good.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because my friend and i want to go to Spain for 2 weeks and try to live off of playing on the street and in café's and such - when we are there, it could be really cool to get to know a native, and hang out with him/her. Show us around and such - and we can definately play a wake-up tune that's better than the ones on the iPhone! We also think it could be fun to play at a party that our host hosted, or in the middle of the night somewhere crazy - we are open!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I worked 2 weeks at a self-sufficient farm outside New York - there i discovered the joy from working with handicapped people of all sorts. They happiness is overwhelming, and they often have different and very loving views off the world around them!
Teach, Learn, Share
Prepare yourself for a cliché...
The best thing i have ever done is to keep doing what i like to do! Simple as that. Think about who i like to be around, what i like to do, where i like to be etc...
Then things grows from there. A few years ago i was in serious doubt whether to only focus on music or to maybe attend the university and keep the music as a hobby, but now i know that i have done the right thing by focusing on the music - it has only been like 2 years, and i never would have imagined it being so good! Next year i will attend a school in Sweden to learn more about jazz, and i'm super excited!
