ABOUT ME
I grew up outside Copenhagen, joined the scouts there. Before high school I lived a couple of years in Brussels, then came back, but moved to England for my Undergraduate. In between I also lived in Mongolia for a while, working with the young scouts there, and traveled a lot around Europe and East Asia. Now I'm settled inside Copenhagen for my further studies. I quite like this city and you should come and check it out too!
I try to not be restricted about what other people may think, even if it means I come across slightly upfront or rude. I also try to always keep relaxed, though it means I sometimes seem too unserious. Instead I give bonus points to anything crazy and uncertain. That's what makes life fun. I want to laugh every day and do things that have never been done before!
PHILOSOPHY
Nothing happens for a reason. / Planning is vital, plans are useless. / Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
CS makes it easy to meet people where I travel, which is great. I also like hosting because of the great people and the inspiration it gives.
Interests
I am a very curious person, who tends to get way too interested in too many things to keep them all in my head. I can't think of a profession I wouldn't mind doing or a science I wouldn't enjoy pursuing.
I'm interested in what people do every day to create a better world. I'm interested in sharing, and how we can share more. In the age of immaterial gold we should be able to do wonders. I'm interested in the design of everyday things. Digital art, photography and drawing. Sometimes (or more often) looking where it seems absurd to go. I'm interested in maths and exploring concepts all they way into their very depth and beauty.

Music, Movies, and Books
A good book or movie should make me realize something new about something. If love when fiction does that, recently stories like Her, Inside Llewyn Davis, Into the Wild. Mostly though, I read biographies and educational stuff, while listening to not enough music.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've created the 'greedy algorithm' for taking a walk.
I've driven a motorcycle zigzag from bottom to top through Vietnam.
I've beaten a Chinese person in Chinese chess.
I've won the Danish championship of real life angry birds.
I've been part of organizing scout festival.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to learn to cook a dish from your country. Or even better, a song or fairy tale! We can share a cold morning run, or a cold ice cream from the nearby pusher. I also have a small building project (a bed) where I could need a bit of help.
