CURRENT MISSION

2015: Taking care of our new daugther and our three-year-old son.

ABOUT ME

At first it was all about Thomas and his travels, ideas and thoughts. Now this profile is more of a family profile for all three of us: Camilla, Thomas and our son Otto.

Ever since he was born in September 2012 our life and couch surfing experiences have changed - for the better.

We live in Odense, Denmark's third largest city with around 193,000 inhabitants. It is the hometown of the infamous Danish writer H. C. Andersen.

Camilla is a medical student and Thomas works as the editor of the local news paper Vollsmose Avisen - in the suburb of Odense called Vollsmose.

We couch surfed during our trip with Otto along the Amercian west coast. A great experience.

We believe in taking part of our local community and respecting the global world. Thomas is a board member of our housing organisation and we buy veggies through a local organic voluteer organisation.

PHILOSOPHY

Think foreward, live in the moment and remember the past

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We both surf couches and host surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted people from Hospitality Club and Couch Surfing, and Thomas has surfed couches in Macedonia and Hungary so fare.

We've met great friends through CS - both in Denmark and Cambodia and we hosted good people from around the world.

We see people and not only places, because we use Couch Surfing.
