About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living a good everyday life, as a father, as a good worker - planning for my next trip: Give me a good idea!!!

ABOUT ME

Daddy of two girls, 21 and 23. Devorced. Live in a very friendly neighbourhood. Musician and life loving. Relaxed, friendly and flexible.

For all of you at CS: I have been kind of absent from CS for a while. But: I'm back:-)!

PHILOSOPHY

I can't do all, but I can do some. Be nice and friendly. Be ambisiouse enough and curious for other peoples views. Do the best you can, and try again!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to travel, and I like to meet new people. I want my home to be inclusive with great hospitality.
Prefer visitors that are verified members of CS and 30+ AND have hosting experience. "Give before you take!"

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted several guests now. Very nice all together. Twice as a guest. What a good way of travelling!!!! There are so many friendly people out there!

Interests

I'm a musician; bass player and enjoy also playing other instruments. Love trekking, boat trips, fishing, food and wine. Together with tree pals I'm the happy owner of an old wooden boat. Slow moves are the right moves at sea. Even though I also have fast boat...
I like to read and I like a good conversation and even a good discussion:-).
I also enjoy cooking.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget the birth of both of my children. And I will never forget how painful a devorce is.
Travel-wise: Thailand and Ethiopia is my most memorable journies so far. And: A very slow trip into one of Norways deepest fjords with my old boat. Gives peace in mind.
