Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION Work, save up money, travel, repeat.
Next destination:
Germany
ABOUT ME I live in Oslo, working as a nurse assistant at a psychiatric hospital. My work is shift based so it can be a bit random when I have the time to hang out and show people around. So I might as well have some free time during weekdays than on weekends.If I have time I can go for a walk and show you around the city. I like coffee or a good beer and a good conversation at a pub, or just staying in and cook together. I also like going hiking or skiing and being out in the nature. I'm an easy-going and uncomplicated guy. Like everyone else on this site I love traveling of course, seeing new places and learning about other cultures [I don't accept friend requests from people I haven't met, if you want to get in touch with me send me a message instead]
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted quite a few people the last couple years now. It's a really nice way to meet people and make friends from all over the world. Some of them I have been able to visit back too which has been great! I really like how it's like you're traveling in your own living room.
Interests
Music is a big interest. I used to play accordion in the Balkan-folkmetal band Trollfest until recently. I've also played bass in a couple of rock-bands
I like filming and editing videos. I’m educated as a sound engineer for film and television, but I just started making my own videos for fun afterwards instead. I have mainly been making videos for my band and other friends bands, but I would like to try out more documentary filmmaking at some point. I have started making some small travel videos now just for fun, and plan to create a travelblog and youtube channel when I find the time.
I like reading, walking, fishing, cooking (trying out new dishes is always fun.) Craft beer (trying out new beer is also always fun) Just started kayaking.
