I'm a 25-year-old solo traveler from Iceland. I love traveling and am currently spending 4-months exploring Asia and Australia.

I have a passion for teaching and I've been working on the side as a teacher since 2009.
I'm a member of ICESAR (the ICElandic Search and Rescue team).

After finishing school I started working in tourism and I just love it! Not to mention that I have the option to work only 7 months of the year which allows plenty of time for traveling :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and until the 1st of May all be exploring Asia and Australia.

On January 29th I fly to Cairns, Australia and I plan to spend the next 2-3 months exploring the east coast. I would love to meet up with locals and make new friends. Join me on a road trip?

Interests

I have a passion for everything outdoors. Among my favorites are skiing, climbing, and hiking. I like to get familiar with new activities and for example, I recently finished Hard Ice 1 which is a 5-day course in glacier guiding.

While in Australia I am particularly interested in seeking out surfing, climbing, and yoga.

Music, Movies, and Books

When it comes to music I enjoy a broad spectrum. My favorite genre is probably indie but when I need that extra motivation my go-to's are Skálmöld, Die Antwoord and The Prodigy.
