CURRENT MISSION

Going to Greece this winter...

ABOUT ME

I'm a 31 year old former student of urban geography and globalization, now I work as a spokesperson in a civil society/grassroot organization working with political economy (or social justice - that might be a better way to put it).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've used CS for traveling up to now, but let me get back to hosting! I promise.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Registered many years ago but have not been able to use CS as much as wanted, until now. The experiences I have through CS has been very positive, and have encouraged me to use it more. I get easy in touch with people traveling anyway, but doing it through Couchsurfing has been rewarding.

Interests

Reading, writing, listening to music.. And people, obviously. My interest for football is badly hidden from time to time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I always come back to: Arcade Fire, Bright Eyes/Conor Oberst, Tom Waits, Cold War Kids, Paul Simon, Why!, Bruce Springsteen, some punk bands. The last couple of weeks I've been listening a lot to Jenny Hval (that means I have to update this often). Movies are tougher to pick out, I'm going through some Cassavetes movies this winter, that's definitely something. Book, I tend to read only Norwegian litterature, but I can come back to that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I walked across Spain last year (yes, the "Camino"), which definitely made a mark on me, I still talk about that.

Teach, Learn, Share

Interesting point. I have no idea! Must be something, though. Let me get back with some good quotes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have no handy skills. But I'm good company, I don't really know what else to promote here. If you write norwegian I can give you a pretty good review/editing session. In English.. not so good.
