About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am traveling to EVERY single country in a single UNBROKEN journey - completely without FLIGHT: www.onceuponasaga.dk

ABOUT ME

I am fortunate to have lived a life with plenty of varied experiences both professionally and in life. I believe in loyalty and hard work which has helped me reach many goals.

"Life" is a subject to be discussed by just about anyone. However most would agree that we are all responsible for the footprints we plant and our actions determine what will happen next.

In my life I have already achieved the following goals:
- summited Mt. Kilimanjaro
- trekked up to Everest Base Camp
- completed 3 full marathons
- paddled 300km around an island on a solo kayak trip
- motor biked 13,000km over 4 months in Asia
- motor biked from California to Panama City, 9 countries, 31 days
- visited 5 continents and much more than 140 countries...

And I am currently on the road to EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD: www.onceuponasaga.dk

PHILOSOPHY

Life is simple - we make it complicated ;)

A stranger is a friend you've never met before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host when I am home - but this is me for the next 3-4 years: www.onceuponasaga.dk

I am travelling to every country in the World without the use of flight. It is a sponsored project in cooperation with the Danish Red Cross. I am keen on meeting local people wherever I go so I will be surfing A LOT :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Good :)

Really good. Couch surfing is not about a free bed. Couch surfing is about people. I would never have seen the World the way I do through couchsurfing (wow, almost sounds like I got paid to write that).
