About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people and have fun

ABOUT ME

Grew up on the island of Thurø, love the water, boats, open cars, and really love to be around frinds and happy people. I have been traveling a lot around the world. Both for pleasure and work. Lately I have worked on 3 different school boats, sailing one year in the Caribbean with Danish children with behaviour difficulties. I like to give these children a new start in life, and teach them some of the values I appreciate in life. Otherwise I have been sailing a lot of competition, and boats will remain a part of my whole life.
I´m an outdoor person, i LOVE to travel, learn new stuff, and meet new people..

The things I like the most hmm. Sorry Can't choose, I have been so lucky and have experienced so many great things..

PHILOSOPHY

I live a very simpel life.. Material things doesn't make me happy, and I realized that. I get mad 2 times a year, otherwise I´m very open and don´t need much to make me happy.. To watch a sunrise makes me happy..
Actually "Don't worry, be happy"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like to meet new people, and meeting other couchsurfers is the best. I have been traveling a lot, and I have come to the point where I don't get staggeringly about seeing a nice beach or a old church.. So for me it´s all about people, understand them, see their point of life, learn something new.. And that is what couchsurfing is all about for me, and of course the people that live the places you travel know where to go and not to go..
My best experienced was in Cancun, Mexico..I came with the taxi, and met 5 nice girls living where I was couchsurfing. One week before I had an accident with my knee, and was having a splint so I couldn´t bend my leg.. To my luck these girls were all educated as physiotherapist, and they treated my leg, and it improved so much that I could continue my travel the way I planned from the very beginning
