Overview
About Me
Currently studying, working, learning new things and making friends.
I'm a pretty chill guy with a lot of ambition and have a love to learn new things, always. At the moment I'm taking some time, in a small city of Denmark, to finish the last year of my education and saving up for a big new adventure. I like to make people smile and generally have fun!
I'm very adaptable and flexible when it comes to.. well, everything. Sometimes I like to take things slow, sometimes I want to get things done, asap.
If I have guests, they are my responsibility but I also trust them to be independent and flexible if I have somewhere important to be.
I was raised to show respect. Meaning that if you show me and my home respect and if necessary, can be flexible, then you have mine and my trust and I'm sure we'll become friends.
I hope that makes sense and gives and idea of who I am :D.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet all these stranger faces!
One of the best things I know is to meet someone with a shared interest of meeting new people.
It's only been my past experinces on this site and it's been tons of fun :D.
Interests
I like to dapple in a lot of skills, sometimes more in one than the other:
Skateboarding, drawing/drafting, painting, photography, playing the guitar.
I also really like listening to music and watching old moives (I'm a huge movie nerd). Talking about it, analyzing it, what it means and what the writers were thinking.
Video games and tabletop games is also my jam!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have traveled and hitchhicked trough England, even after most people told me it wouldn't be a good idea.
Spoilers: It was a super succesful trip!
I've met some amazing people and being on my own in a country I've never been in before was so exhiIarating. I have never felt more confident in myself after that adventure and because of that, I'm gonna continue to travel the rest of the world again when the time is right!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can cook and make my home as hospitable as possible.
I can share stories, listen to your stories, otherwise you can always ask about anything!
If you (or wanna) draw, paint or play music we can tottally jam out.
Wanna kill the time? We could play some video games or go out and dring a beer! Up to you.
I can (with the best of my efforts) teach you how to teach yourself to draw, how to focus.
I can teach you how to get the best use of some of the Adobe softwares.
I can teach the basics of guitar chords and progression.
What I Can Share with Hosts
As above, pretty much.
For example:
We could make dinner together; I can either cook or do the dishes.
If you can use an extra pair of hands, feel free to ask.
