I'm a 25 years old Norwegian girl living in Bergen, Norway.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a curious person who loves traveling and meeting new people. Coachsurfing gives me the opportunity to travel more, because I can spend my money on bus or train tickets instead of hostels, and it's also a great way to get to know a place from the inside and from its inhabitants.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most music except maybe rap and heavy metal. Normally, I use classical music or jazz as background music, but when I'm with other people, I listen to whatever they're listening to. I would love to discover more French music as it's an important part of the culture and also a good way to learn the language.

When it comes to films, I'm not very selective, but I don't like films that are too violent. My favourite films must be the Harry Potter series (because I love the books), and the French films I like the most are "Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis", "Amélie" and "La famille Bélier".

As already mentioned, I like Harry Potter. I also like the Norwegian authors Erlend Loe (especially his book "Doppler") and Helene Uri. As a former student in French language and literature, I know a lot about French literature, but I still think my favourite French book is one that I've never learned about: "Le Petit Prince".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2015-2016, I was an exchange student in Nantes, France, where I studied Geography. Even though it was hard studying something I didn't know anything about in a language that wasn't my mother tongue, I ended up learning a lot and wanting to learn even more about French language, culture and geography, which made me go on a second exchange, in Lille, France.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like discussing themes that give me more insight in how the world works; language, culture, geography or whichever other theme. I want to be able to see the world through other people's eyes, and at the same time share my point of view.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you've got a piano, I can teach you how to play. Considering that you might know how to play if you own a piano, I'll also add that we could play together.

I could also help you practise a language you're learning if it's a Scandinavian language (considering that you'll be able to understand Norwegian even if you're learning Swedish or Danish), English or French.
