Personal DescriptionYou can learn something about me from
http://www.flickr.com/photos/annalinda/
How I Participate in CSTo give people tips on everything, hopefully some travelling and stuff.
Hang out with travellers, local C.S.ér
and to know interesting people from all over the world.CouchSurfing Experience-Drove around Iceland with Jonas, he slept on the couch few nights. Then later he came to Cph on a visit.
_ Surfed in Berlin at Tina and Leo, Rolf and Hilda and Caspar
InterestsTravel, culture in all forms with that i mean architecture, art, people etc. I attend a lot of conserts
PhilosophyTrying to find positive in everything. Even when its impossible at first sight. Music, Movies, BooksPiano, Big Blue, Cold fever, Superstar, Volver and more.
Classical, electro, old rock ( like doors, led zeppelin),
And i live for music, Indie, electronic, Hip-hop, basically everything except gabba and trash metal ;)
I read way to little but i enjoyed the kite runner.Types of People I enjoyOpen minded,funny and cleaver people.That enjoy the good things in life and like to experience new country´s, food people etc (not necessary in that order ;)
http://www.myspace.com/thando74
Teach, Learn, ShareI am curios about other cultures and norms, how people think and why they do as they do.
Hopefully we can awake awareness and more tolerance about people and the world.
C.S. makes the world seem like a smaller place. One Amazing Thing I've Seen or DoneSighting trip over the Icelandic national park Thingvellir, in a little plane with my brother as a pilot.
After many hours in a bus, not so much sleep, but it was getting bright, and i stumbled into the gas station, when i´eve got out i saw part of the Rocky mountains, and i got a chill down my back and felt like crying, just awesome.Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org ProjectI think that it is a brilliant idea. You get a whole different perspective on a country and it´s inhabitants by staying at someone´s house instead of a hotel. It takes a special kind of people to open up their home for some strangers. I see it as an cultural exchange and often new friend ships.Locations TraveledTRAVELED: Canada, Czech Republic, England, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Turkey
LIVED: Denmark, Iceland, Norway
WANTS TO GO: Australia, Cuba, Papua New Guinea, South Africa, Tuvalu, Vietnam
IS GOING TO: Germany
What do these numbers mean?
This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.
In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.
When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you. References (20)20Positive 0Neutral 0Negative

From Rénia Sastrowidjojo Rotterdam, Netherlands
May 20, 2011  Positive Anna Linda found me on the NYC group and wrote me a nice email. We didn't meet up there though but in my town when she came to visit for a weekend.
It's great to meet people in person after emailing and she is one big bubbly personality (no pun intended ;-) )
We met up and roamed a bit around town and she's up for anything which involves browsing, shopping, exploring, ice cream, food and coffee. The joys of life basically.
A well travelled, curious and good natured person. I'm sure the kids she's taking care of at her work, are having much fun with Anna Linda.
See you soon here or at CPH !...
From Thorey Munro Copenhagen, Denmark
Oct 26, 2010 Positive AnnaLinda is funny and kind and FUN! I can't wait until I can visit her in Denmark and, one day, speak with her in Icelandic... It was wonderful spending time with her in NY...
 From Mari Niemeläinen Helsinki, Finland
Oct 23, 2010 Positive Anna Linda invited me to her friends birthday party at Copenhagen and then we met also later eating out before I had to leave to the airport.
It was really great to meet her and her friends. She's helpful, fun, nice and so much full of energy. I had really nice time with her and it was already at the beginning easy to talk with her. I'm sometimes pretty shy, but with her I felt so comfortable, like we had knew each others long time.
 From Eloisa Angeles New York, United States
Sep 25, 2010  Positive Anna Linda was so much fun! She is the kind of person you'd want to always be around because she has a very comforting and happy aura.
 From Peter Welleman Rotterdam, Netherlands
Aug 6, 2009 Positive Both me and bf briefly talked to Anna before she had to leave for her holiday, that was a shame, because we both felt she was a lot of fun! She seems very open, light-hearted and good-natured! Hope to see Anna (and Bjoggi) soon in Rotterdam.
From Jonas Stoces Vancouver, Canada
Jun 28, 2009  Positive It is literary impossible to be sad around Anna linda. Her spirit takes you right up to the top, shakes you all a round and puts you gently back on the ground.
Probably one of the most kind and caring bear out there.
 From Andy Johansen Copenhagen, Denmark
Nov 3, 2008 Positive Seeing manga art, eating thai food and just observing the world around us. A great day spent with Anna Linda. She is great fun and her stories from a very active life will blow you away, hehe. Hope to meet you again somewhere, somehow :-)
From John Fischer New York, United States
Jul 31, 2008  Positive Anna Linda took such good care of me! I learned how to eat eggs the Icelandic way, plus she exposed me to all kinds of new and fantastic music. See you soon!
From Björgvin Huldar Frederiksberg, Denmark
Jun 18, 2008  Positive She is fun to live with, relaxed, outgoing, open-minded, trustworthy, a friend for life!
Love you!
