I have been studying film and literature at the University of Copenhagen for some years, but am currently taking a break, working with film and music. I mostly earn my living teaching piano.
Peaceful guy with a curiosity for new people, places and knowledge. When traveling I try to absorb as much as possible of the history and culture, reading and visiting museums, but especially also getting to know new people, exchanging language and absorbing the local atmosphere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying with locals is a brilliant opening to a city, that is different from the standard guide-book introduction. I like getting to know people from different countries and learning new languages, and in this respect couchsurfing is perfect.
I've been mostly surfing, since my room doesn't allow much space for extra surfers.

Interests

Film, music, literature, art, politics. Jogging, meditating. I don't know much about sports, but am starting to get the hang of table tennis!

Made an electronic soundtrack for 2,5 hour silent-sci-fi-classic, Metropolis.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I know about film and music. I can maybe teach you a piece on the piano, or a polyrhythm on the table. I'm always up for a good discussion about anything.
