I'm an active person, currently working and living in Norway. I plan to open a farm and switch to a minimalist sustainable lifestyle. UPDATE! I BOUGHT AND MOVED TO A FARM. WOOHOO.
I've hosted many but the references are under Kjell-Jostein Sivertsen's profile (2009-2015).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am hoping to meet new people and new cultures. Couchsurfing allows people to have a more personal experience that is not easy to obtain as a typical tourist.

Interests

I enjoy yoga, jogging, biking, martial arts, natural crafts, languages and cooking(love food). I'm into minimalist natural living, building things with my hands and learning new things and perspectives.
Right now I am really focused on learning to farm, care for animals and makes all the things I need to live.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite music is a hard choice. I believe it can't be narrowed down since different types of music tune into different emotions on a wide spectrum. Generally I enjoy fluid music like that of Olafur Arnolds. To list off other favorites, Blind Guardian, Thomas Dybdahl, Adele, Asgeir Trausti and various artist within R&B, etc.
I enjoy nearly all kinds of films, especially thought provoking ones, horror, slice of life films and dramas. I am not one to remember or follow specific directors or actors, however.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I completed a marathon(42km/26miles) and needed no recovery time. I ran it in the morning, had a meal and a shower and then I felt like a regular day. No horrible soreness or exhaustion. I used a training method I developed for myself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have some interest life stories. Conversation in English might be useful to someone. I would love to cook for my hosts. I'm also good with special design for organizing living spaces. And can always jump in to help around the house, especially in maintenance or renovation ( I am able to help, but am no where near being an expert). I also know A LOT of stuff for fitness and health.
