My Current Mission

To enjoy myself as much as humanly possible.

I´m taking a trip to the U.S. from November 13 until November 26. I´ll be in Washington D.C., New York and Baltimore and am looking for fun hosts to show me around!

ABOUT ME

Warm and friendly. Curious about the world and other people. Good at languages. Not great at chit chat. Quite clever with books and concepts but rather clumsy in real life situations. I´d forget my own head if it weren´t screwed on.

Love a good party and a good dance. Hate drama. On route to be an international lawyer. Idealistic and optimistic at that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I´ve surfed twice now and I loved it!

If you are in Reykjavík, Iceland and would like someone to grab a coffee with you or show you the bars, i´m in.

My former housemate Emma and I hosted a bunch of people last year and had a blast. I´m sure I´ll get back to hosting here in Iceland when the time is right again.

Couchsurfing Experience

I surfed with Raul in Belgium, a perfect start into the couchsurfing experience. I needed a place to stay in between connections and Raul was the perfect host. We had dinner and stayed up all night drinking wine and talking, I wish i could have stayed longer.

Second time was with Kruska in Paris where she hosted me and two friends. Partytimes in Paris will not be forgotten! Paris je t´aime

Interests

My main hobbies/interests, are lounging, walking around pretty places, being somewhere far away from most humans, dancing like crazy in some club or other and getting drunk, oh and reading. If I do happen to exercise, I like swimming and horseback riding the most ooh and kayaking.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I´ve seen the northern lights dancing above me shimmering in red and purple.

I have seen vast dunes of the Sahara under the blackest sky filled with stars. Stars shot down as well, first time I´ve gotten an unfiltered natural high.

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied international law so I´m always up for discussion on that topic, and I have all these little trivial tidbits in my head that randomly pop out. I would like to learn some cooking because I don´t cook much and I´m in need for some inspiration.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories about Iceland. Stories about my travels through the world. Stories about all the parties and all the fun I´ve had. Also I know all kinds of random shit. And a few good jokes and a bunch of good stories. I can share a drink, a smoke or a smile with my hosts or all of the above of course.
