About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not owning more than I can carry & Setting up the final base camp

ABOUT ME

Like so many great people I was born a stormy winter night.

At 70 degrees North, on a small island, Karlsøya, inhabited by goats, hippies, punks and muslims I was born late at night at home on a COUCH. The doctors boat couldn´t make it in time because of the bad weather.
My slightly premature entry into the world was caused by my mothers Yoga excersises. I still do Yoga. Sometimes.

PHILOSOPHY

Que sera sera. What happens, happens.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I offer my couch to my fellow nomads.

Interests

Good coffee, fine wines, cheap beer fresh fruit and good times.
I´m interested in Poetry, Art, Messing around the kitchen, Philosophy, Yoga, Literature, Experimental Film, Linguistics, Rhetoric, Religious history, Political Music, Zen buddhism & What exactly makes my fellow human beings tick.
I like the midnight sun, the northern lights, pitch black summer nights, the buzz of crickets. It´s all good.
