About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying life by meeting people around the world

ABOUT ME

Hi!
I am a 25-year-old girl living in a shared house in Risskov, a suburb of Aarhus, Denmark. Since I am studying anthropology I like meeting new people from different places in the world. it's nice to learn about your cultures :)

PHILOSOPHY

I feel more like a citizen of the world than Danish. I find that we all have a responsibility to try to make life worth living for all people in the world. I think couchsurfing is helping against theese things by creating understanding between peoples. I hope that I will be able to make a difference by working as an anthropologist and creating understanding between cultures. Through a focus on consciousness and self development in my studies, I am planning to work as a therapist and to help people connect with their true self, while I am on the same journey myself.

I Am inspired by Ekhard Tolle, Dalai Lama, Charles Eisenstein, Desmond Tutu, Jaque Fresco and other nice and philosophical people

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope I can answer your qestions about Danish culture, since I study cultures -But many cultural phenomenons can be paradoxical :)
I know a good deal about the spirituality in Denmark and how it is inspired from other approaches to spirituality around the world. I attend yoga classes and join a network of young spiritual people in Aarhus and Europe.
I like to learn about your country and culture, traditions, values, and what makes a good life for you.
