About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I try to become a development engineer
ABOUT ME
I am very interested in people and evan more in people who are able to encourage people in to doing what they want. By this I mean people who brings smiles and make difficult situations simple.
In my job I strive for simplicity without losing the technical dept required. I don't like difficult problems but I love making them simple and I am really glad that I managed to build a living out of this.
On a personnel level I like people that like to have strong opinions and stand for them. I like a good debate even when it gets messy, as long as the starting point is your belief and not something you borrowed or use as political/bureaucratic something for your, or your groups, advantage...
PHILOSOPHY
Make things fun that will help you to get the absolute maximum out of them.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
This is by far the most interesting social community networking site because it combines best of both worlds. The internet space and the real world.
My participation is low but my love for the community grate!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first and only couch surfing experience was in 2008 in San Francisco.
I now return to couch surfing because I am going back to San Francisco. Hope this works out!:)

Music, Movies, and Books
If I can stay on your couch you are welcome to check out my iPhone.
In general I like music that is a bit edgy like Lamb, Calexico or einstürzende neubauten ...
Books are usually fantasy books.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
3 months Norway for my final project as an engineer.
Started my own business and developed a community to share parkings
Failed to start a business in carsharing because I sold my idea to quickly
Developped an algorithm to transmit data with ultrasound
Used honisty as a power, not as a weakness...
Teach, Learn, Share
I learn from the people when they are able to open up. I like exposure and don't like closure.
I learn from people that have found a or some focus points that they can share information about with real passion.
