My name is Martin Svane and I come from Denmark.
I've been playing music for a while now. I sing and play basically a little of every instrument. If it possible I would love to jam some music with you.
I've been studying film and media the last couple of years. I'm sound designing and editing on shortfilms.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to experience the different cultures and places through the eyes of someone already living there.
I don't like being a turist, I would much rather experience the different cities with the locals.

Interests

My passion is movies. I love them! I'd love to one day maybe work in that business, but we'll see.
I care about music, too. And have been working as a volunteer at my local concert place, setting up underground concerts for 3 years.
I really like cooking! Every Monday I meet up with some of my best friends to cook dinner for my family.

Music, Movies, and Books

Basically all sorts of music.
On my music player, you'll find artists as: Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, artic monkeys, Leonard Cohen, Ben Howard, Ed Sheeran, muse, to name a few. My favorite band is Mumford and sons.
I like reading, even though I do it too little. I've read a lot of books by different authors. For example. Stephen King, JK Rowling, Dan Brown.
As mentioned earlier. I love movies! Not just watching them, but analyzing them as well. My least favorite genres are chick flicks (even though I've watched a few), parody movies (except the old ones, naked gun, hot shots etc.) and horror movies. Not because I get scared, but just because they are usually very bad movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've trekked in the Himalayas, watching the sunrise with Mt. Everest in the distance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I worked as a teacher for a year and I loved it. Teaching kids from the age of six all the way up to the age of fifteen. It was very rewarding.
I'm a quick learner, and I love learning. I was one of the few people in my class that actually enjoyed going to school. Not the assignments etc. But just learning about the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm easy going. I respect all kinds of people and rules.
I would love to play music with you or cook Danish food.
I like to talk a lot, and would really like to learn from you, and maybe, if possible, teach you a thing or two
